Hahaha honestly we have the #3 PK #3PK and the best adjusted numbers 5v5 I dare say EVERYTHING is our bread and butter

The issue is it disrupts our flow, when we take stupid avoidable penalties. 5v5 our grind game just builds and builds the pressure and we start to force mistakes.

Kuz is usually 44% in the faceoff dot overall. I was impressed with that aspect of his game. He quickly fell into the trap of new players in our system though. Especially with not having played in a while.
 

You can take any of the top scorers in the league and put them into our system and they would look pedestrian for a while in their overall play.

I'm a little confused what you mean here, he was 55% at the dot had a couple of shots (one whiff he deff wants back) In 13 minutes I thought he looked pretty good for being his first game in a few months and being on a new team.

What trap do you mean?

I’m saying his career average is 44% in the faceoff dot. 44.1 or something so to see him break that 50% mark in his first game after not having played for a month and a half essentially is good thing to see. Though I do think jersey is deficient in the dot. We’ll see once we get NY and the panthers.

Oh gotcha I hadn't checked his % before reading your post so I was a bit confused....

 

He played with great effort and responsibility I saw him getting back on the backcheck.

He was cheating zone defense a lot. Kept seeing him try to go house but he’ll figure it out.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
