Has Svech become a liability?

Personally, I don’t think so. He gets called for some absolute trash penalties that would not be called against some let’s just call it like it is, Canadians. 
 

He makes at least one play every game that does not result in a point for himself but does for at least 2 of his teammates. 
 

He’s hot and cold with scoring but he’s still only 22. He definitely leaves his mark on every game, imo - and is always available. Any team would be lucky to have him. He’s on track to be a superstar forward.

Svech simply out worked several Canadians on the boards that led to two goals. Ok he didn’t score the goal, but he got the assists. Sometimes his best work is on the boards with hits and pressures. He is just fine. I will say the entire team is having issues holding pucks and catching passes.

Nobody else is on the team is willing to get in the muck like Svech, so I have no problem with him hitting someone now and then. The Canes have guys like Staal, Burns, Martinook (who I thought was going to drop the gloves more than once last night, but didn't) who can hold their own when it comes time to throw down, but, for the most part they're all pretty reluctant to do so (because they're all critical to the PK).

If Svech is the guy who needs to retaliate or send a message once in a while, so be it.

And 2 guys on the Canes team had 3 points last night- Jarvy and Svech.

Svech is absolutely not a liability.

Yeah he's in a slump and he seems to do this every year but he's about the only player we have that plays the "power forward" position. He's a big body that can lay the wood and get on the stat sheet whether it's with assists or goals.

I really hope we bring in Timo Meier for this reason alone...we need someone else that plays that style!

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Yes, he's a tier above them, but you also touched on the money side of it.  With T-Mac locked in as our #1 on a rookie contract for a few more years, I'd much rather use that money that would be needed for DJ on our defense and develop Coker into our #2.   Especially given his contract situation as an UDFA, as his contract is up at the end of this year but we can keep him around for a 3rd team controlled year on the real cheap.  Which means we probably could get him to sign a very reasonable extension this offseason to give him a little more money while giving us a bargain contract for what he provides. DJ's contract is north of $20 million for the next 5 years, why pay that for your #2 WR with the needs we have on defense and you have guys like Coker, XL, and Horn on rookie contracts who very well could combine to be a serviceable 2-4 WRs behind a stud in T-mac? I love DJ and he'd be a great fit on this team as our #2, but the money side of it just makes absolutely zero sense, that's all it comes down to for me on this one. And no, I don't see the Bears wanting XL back in that trade, because they drafted Burden, who is essentially a better version of what XL provides, a player you want to get the ball into their hands and let them go to work.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By fanpanther · Posted

      I didnt see that many bad calls in the panthers cowboys game, but the chiefs especially in the playoffs were getting every single call they could get then the refs when it didnt matter would throw a call towards the other teams.  That I believe was the taylor swift effect.   But its crazy just thinking about how easy it is to change a game.  You dont need but a single ref to make a few close calls go towards one team over the other and in the nfl that is the game.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By CRA · Posted

      I don't think it's unrealistically blaming Bryce Young......to say has been a reason, sometimes a big one, in why our pass offense overall has been extremely week over the past 3 collective seasons.  I think that bothering anyone, is just being overly invested in some Bryce Young argument.  It's just a reality.
