He hates losing. But like a lot of skilled players, he seems to think the only way he can contribute to winning is to score.

I know I've been banging on about this, but half the game is played without the puck. Players vary dramatically in how well they play without the puck, just as they vary in how well they play with it.

Offence/defence on a 1-5 scale

5/2 or 4/4, which is better? I like the 4/4.

The good news is skilled players can bring that second number up if they really care about that part of the game and put in the effort. Some do. Some don't. Good teams have cores made up mostly of players who do.
