About Svech


Recommended Posts

I think people expect more dominant play out of Svech because of his style and talent. We know the potential when healthy and hot, so people want that. It's why everybody got down on Eric Staal late in his run here. Svech's contribution is still felt, it just isn't translating to 5v5 goals right now.

Honestly I’d move svech back up to 2 for the Toronto game and if he’s still struggling bench him for a game or two so he can get his head straight. Doubt Rod would do it but… 

Put TT with Staal and Marty if Fast can’t play.

Yeah I'd test and consider. But rod is bullish. How many cold snaps did Aho play through?

For me, it has nothing to do with the points and more to do with the effort.

Fast hasn’t put up points this year but I never have to question his effort. Svech has put up some points but the effort just isn’t there all the time.

I’m wondering if his oblique is acting up again. That would make sense why he can’t hit the net and if that’s the case rest the dude until the playoffs if we got the depth to spare.

As much as I’d like to get home ice throughout, if guys are hurting then they need to be sitting right now.

That’s if we have bodies to spare, with Drury, Fast(and TT for a bit) being out.

Look, we all grant Jordan a pass for his stretches of "and Staal's shot misses the net", so we can do the same for Svech lol

 

Thinking about it Staal is either basically shoots 10 feet wide or scores there is no in-between on anything besides stuff shots.

This is his first year back on a pretty serious injury. I don’t question his drive or desire, but it may take him more time to trust his body again. I had that injury plus some, and it takes about 2 years to forget the injury. He will be fine.

It was hilarious for a while there. It was a given that his shot was hitting glass or board, so every goal felt like a moment lol

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
