Jesper Fast: Swedish Army Knife

"The Swede is now tied for the team lead in goals with five and those have all come in different ways and different scenarios. Fast has scored shorthanded, at even-strength, into an empty net, once in overtime before, and now on the power play, in overtime, to clinch a series.

Even outside of the goals, the defensive winger has stayed true to his roots.

Fast still had a job to do, namely erasing New Jersey’s top player, and he was damn good at it throughout the series, helping to make Jack Hughes and Nico Hischier non-factors for the majority of games."

Growth For The Moment

But in spite of that, Jarvis has flourished when the team has needed him most, with four goals and eight points in 10 games this postseason.

“I think you see that a lot of the best goal scorers are able to kind of get lost in the offensive zone and kind of jump into a hole and stuff like that, so I’ve been working with Sergei Samsonov and the team a lot on video and stuff like that,” Jarvis said. “Just finding ways to almost reinvent my game and add those different layers and not just be a guy that skates 100mph down the side and just drives to the net every time.”

Jarvis’ scoring touch couldn’t have come at a better moment for his team, as he and Aho have combined to lead a difference making top line for the Hurricanes.

It’s going to be interesting if we reunite our lines so he’s with Staal Vs. The nat and Tcasshole. He was able to open up since he wasn’t on the Staal line last series, but we may need our war video game physics GIF

back together for this series. At least at home.

A couple of things really stood out to me. Jarvy gets a, well deserved, rep as a goofball, annoying little brother. But, he is also a cerebral student of the game. Even if the Rat Marchand talk made me wanna hurl, it shows a desire to be great that a lot of men his age don't have yet.

Hopefully Jarvis can find his game in this series. He’s tied to Aho. Who by nature is a very defensive forward. He’d be putting up numbers on the KK line, but the fact he wants to learn 2 way with the top says worlds about him. Damn I miss svech and TT. Gotta give Aho his line.

If he’s back. Which I don’t know if that will happen for another week at least. I wonder how they will rejigger the lines. TT on One Noesen on three drury on four if they keep the same base lineup from round 2? I assume Aho V. Barkov and Staal V. Bennett at least at home.

I’d kinda like to see an Each - Stas - Drury 4. Bring some speed against the aging 4th of Florida.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      Right. But you do understand that there is no such thing as not signing free agents, right? That's what I mean. So make some good free agency moves and do well in the draft. That's step one. If you can't accomplish that, then this will just keep getting worse.

      Sweet jebus this is idiotic Yes, overall team success in this league, you need a good QB, but beyond just that painfully obvious fact, let's get into the rest of the stupid in there......... First things first, you say.. "if we need a good QB for him to have success, then why are you drafting that player with the #1 pick" Show me one time I've ever said we would need a good QB for T-Mac himself to have success... you can't, because I never have.  I think you're referring to the "he's bad enough that we then have a Top 5 pick to target a QB" part of my post, which is very clearly talking about said QB, not T-Mac.  The other way to interpret that is just overall team success, which again, wouldn't be anything about T-Mac or his ability to impact the offense or overall team wins and losses. I'm quite sure I could do this with a number of teams over the years, but I don't want to spend the time to do multiple, so I'll keep it to just the 2023 Vikings right now since you wanted to use Jefferson as your example....... The Vikings went 3-6 after Cousins went down last year.  And two of those wins came before Jefferson even came back from his own injury, they were 1-4 in the final 5 weeks after Jefferson came back. In those 5 games, Jefferson had 31 catches, 503 yards, and 2 TDs Having the WR you specifically called out didn't help them go better than 1-4 with a bad QB, even though he still put up a great stat line for that time period either.  It also didn't make that QB good enough to where they then went out and brought in TWO new QB's this year to replace Doubs and Mullens who started down the stretch for them last year. And that's with 4th year Jefferson, not a rookie that T-Mac would be If you expect a WR getting drafted #1 overall to be the player to turn a franchise as bad as we are around in 1 season, make whatever QB we're able to put in there be successful, and lead us to a solid season, then you are literally insane. We are AWFUL, we have a few young guys who could turn into great players, but we are so far from being a good team, that there isn't any player we could draft next year that is going to change that in 2025.
