For further comparision, Kris Russell, who gets killed publicly for his possession issues (-4.08%) is still less of a possession black hole while being a better point producer for his position.
In the preseason game last night, Korpikoski was on the ice for 12 shot attempts against. He was on the ice for zero shot attempts for.
