But yep, he sure sucks!
There was a Reddit post from a Florida fan I saw yesterday that detailed why he sucks. For the life of me, I can't find it but here's what I remember:
  • He shies away from hits to preserve his ironman streak. Apparently, he leads the league in least hits taken.
  • Most of his assists are secondary assists.
  • He doesn't check at all.
  • A complete defensive liability. For example, instead of going into the corner to get a puck he will poke it to the nearest Florida player rather than get it himself.

More stuff like that, but it was a pretty good post as it supplemented the above with decent stats. Admittedly, I don't know a ton about Yandle after he left the Coyotes.
