Return from Christmas break to the worst team in the league. Matthews home game. Should be an easy 2 points. SHOULD be.
We’ll win. Babcock finally came to his senses and put Nylander back with Matthews with predictable results. Now if he could ever get rid of that anvil Hyman from Matthews back, I might have to re-evaluate my position on this alleged world class coach.
He also has a higher ATOI (17:31) than any forward on the team not named Matthews (mind boggling really) and is tied for 7th in scoring despite playing most of the season with Matthews. He also has the highest TOI ES among forwards not named Matthews. He also has the lowest PS among the top 9 despite playing with Matthews. You have to use statistics fairly if you’re going to support Babcock’s FC. He weighs Matthews down by any statistical measuring stick or eye test.Hyman has more ES points (18) than anyone not named Matthews (22) and Nylander (19). Hardly weighing them down....

Hyman hate looks pretty ridiculous sometimes.
He's been good this year and there are too many around here that refuse to try and like him.
His stats certainly point to him being a top 6 forward that still has room for more growth as he's only in his sophomore season.....and hes on a really good contract taking his production into account.
More ES points than Crosby but playing 2 min less a game?
How can you spin that as being a bad thing?
He's pretty good.
I want to see us pummel Arizona.
Well Crosby has won back to back cups while the leafs don't even know how to spell second round.Hyman hate looks pretty ridiculous sometimes.

I don’t hate Hyman, he’s a marginal 3rd liner, more likely 4th liner. What’s ridiculous is people who think he’s a top 6, like our genius coach, who gives him more ice time than offensive players when we’re down in games. Against Columbus he had Hyman AND Komarov on the ice in the final minute...result was tragic.Hyman hate looks pretty ridiculous sometimes.

You can't a say hes a great 3rd liner because he's never played there and never will.He's a great 3rd liner, not marginal. That's what he's getting paid like too.
Not a top 6er, but we do not really have anyone else on that left side who could really do it otherwise. They clearly want someone who digs, and neither JvR nor Marleau do that and the others who could be there (Komarov and Martin) would not be much better.
