We had a what when?!? I missed this interview coming home from being appreciated, but, yeah, that’s not really true. You sure he didn’t mean the PK? Because that’s actually more true about the PK but not the PP. There’s a reason one ended up 28th and the other 14th.

And at it’s best the PK had great underlying metrics and was shockingly successful considering what our goaltending was like.

The metrics of the PK always were blah even when it got hot, the GF/60 perked up because players shot incredibly well and that was literally the only reason.

They shot 15.29% between Oct 15th to Nov 15th. They had 17th GF/60 & 28th xGF/60.

They shot a crazy low 3.92% between Nov 15th to Dec 15th. They had 32nd GF/60 & 24th xGF/60.

They shot a sweet 20.00% between Dec 15th to March 15th. They had 6th GF/60 & 18th xGF/60.

They shot 7.25% since March 15th. They have 32nd GF/60 & 32nd xGF/60.
Nope. He meant PP and he said exactly that.

He cited Jack Hughes coming back and how it’s tough when you’re missing a player like him to maintain a good power play, but that 2.5 months of a top-5 PP was a direct quote from him.

He looked and sounded dejected. It was some post game interview (not the actual presser) with Erika and Sal, where he talked from downstairs.

I do remember the power play somehow battling back to 21st or maybe it was only 22nd at one point maybe in late February/very early March? I was afraid it was gonna end up top-20 on the season and save Recchi.

But nope, it regressed back to the mean shortly after.

Man, screw Severson bro. He’s gonna be gone after next year.

We’re making a big mistake if Blackwood goes. He might end up on a playoff team like Wedgewood did.

What are we gonna do then?

Do they have the Ruff interview from these? So we can see his “2.5 months of a top-5 power play” comment?

What will be look his contract? I mean he had a great season but so did everyone else in the league. Last year if he had this kind of season he would get close to 8m, i wouldn't give him 7m or more now.

Agree. Maybe 6.25 per. No way he gets nico money

Let's see what Mr. "Interesting Discussion" Fitzgerald has to say....

In my opinion, I think it ends up either at EXACTLY 7m or something close to it like 6.90 / 6.95'ish when all is said and done.

6.25 is where I think the discussion begins as far as Bratt's agent is concerned (not where it ends).

I’m going to take a long break if this GDT is anything like what the next few months will bring.
Honestly, I think most of us could use that break after this shitshow. I'll pop in for the lottery, draft, and FAs, but there's really no need to twist ourselves into a pretzel over things we've argued about for six months already.

60 pts in 70 games is a 70-pt pace in 82 games. That’s absolutely great for Nico considering the role he plays. People wanted production plus all the hard matchups. He just delivered.

Meh. He’s just a 3C when you think about it. I mean (names from really good teams that score a ton and get similar ice time to Hischier and have better linemates) play 3C on their teams. Trade him for (unrealistic player or player who will demand a much bigger contract or potentially walk in a year as a UFA).
