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!

      Ticket Prices

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
