I think Kadri has been really bad actually. Like, amongst one of the worst forwards over the last 10-20 games.

I cannot remember a time I have been impressed with him recently at all, and he looks like he's pouting and has mailed it in, despite being paid handsomely. His effort level is fairly ridiculous and borderline comical, actually. He doesn't look like a professional, and needs to move his feet.

He had a better game last night despite skating out to the blue line with the puck in a pretty dangerous manner. And he had 2 apples (I don't remember them very well at all though).

I don't disagree about effort. I think he kind of tries, but he's easily thrown off if he feels he's been fouled. He spends an age picking himself up and looking at the ref.

Just based on production, the top 3 forwards over the last while are Huberdeau, Lindholm and Backlund. By a wide margin.

Yeah, he needs to stop doing that. Just pop back up and go at it again.

Zadorov is a mixed bag can't have him playing that high up.

Love what Tanev brings but I think its time to cut him loose due to his injuries causing a massive issues with our pairings. Really throws the pairings our of whack.
Fixed it for you:

Weegar-Andersson
Hanifin-Tanev
Zadorov-Stecher

He's moving his feet more specifically since the LA blowout

But he's still suffering from tunnel vision

He skates it in and every one gets open, and he stick handles himself into a corner and it ends in a nothing play or turnover that leaves the zone

His line was better last night but I think a lot of that was the work of his linemates and less so him

Big props to the team for another comeback win. They didn't start well, but they definitely picked up their game in the second. Love that the secondary players were the ones that won the team the game as well. Sometimes you need those types of performances from the role players.

Just seeing the looks after Stone's goal, the reactions from the bench after the Weegar block and Lewis/Coleman's face after the Lucic goal, that's the type of heart this team hasn't shown all season. This team believes right now and maybe, just maybe that'll be the last ingredient to get them over the hump and into the playoffs.

Damn of course. He’s above them all with 16 in that time frame (4 in one game v Vegas being the biggest factor).
