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!

      We've never seen them outside of the structure of two very well ran organizations I'll give you that. And yes they are long in the tooth. I do think they are more than capable of getting a franchise turned around in short term capacity though. They are by no means a long term solution.

      Your Feelings on Bryce Through 3 Seasons? (POLL)

      You're not making a good-faith argument by blaming literally everything on the quarterback when the defense gave him a fat 38 seconds to overcome its ineptitude, but it seems you're dead-set on blaming him for any problem the team encounters. In this case, it's not warranted. Sometimes it is. But he had no time to throw (pressured on 46% of all dropbacks, an insane amount) and that's simply not all his fault -- particularly when they rush 4 or less and are in the backfield in 1.5s or less. Should we have gotten more than 0 yards? Sure! But he hit a WR in the hands on fourth down and it was dropped. Not his fault. He missed one throw on second down but I attribute first down to a bad play call and third down to poor pass protection. I would've called some quick slants, personally, but it really seems you're saying: - playcalling: Bryce's fault - poor pass protection: Bryce's fault - defensive choking away a lead: Bryce's fault, not the defense - Horn dropping a pass: Bryce's fault It's a great way to garner support on here, because when it comes to Bryce, logic takes such a backseat to context that it's not even in the same vehicle. Plenty of games can be attributed to him. Can't take anyone seriously who solely blames him for that one.

      I don't see how you can logically make that argument when the team beat two of the top teams in the entire league during the regular season.  Now imagine the additional games we would have won against absolute tip top competitors like SF and SEA had we had a professional QB.  You can throw any random stat at the problem you want, but the proof is in the pudding.  We all watched it live.  This roster would have produced 13 wins (wins against SF and SEA, two wins against NO, and would have swept the Bucs) and (almost certainly) a #1 seed with a remotely competent QB.  Those were not games where we needed an all star performance to win.  Those were games where a very, very modest stat line would have netted us an easy win. Nearly every measurable aspect of the team would have been significantly improved with a competent QB.
