February 14, 20187 yr comment_319000 Lemieux Petan Armia more than likely if hes healthy. Dano is trade fodder now
February 14, 20187 yr comment_319007 I love the fact that we can have talented players on all four lines, with guys who can also come in and not skip a beat and play our bottom six. Long gone are the days of Thorburn, Peluso, Glass, etc wasting roster spots and being an anchor on whatever line they were on.

Thorburn was better than Tanev. He scored more points.

February 14, 20187 yr comment_319034 Tanev averages 0.16 PPG. Thorburn averages 0.17 PPG. Hendricks averages 0.20 PPG. Tanev's possession metrics are better than both Thorburn's and Hendricks'. Tanev also came cheaper than either of them. Before spouting off garbage comments, look at some numbers next time.

Points. Thats all that matters. Fancy stats mean **** all. Bottom line.. Tanev isnt good... Hendricks isnt good. Thorburn wasnt good. Next time realize hockey is about scoring the most goals.. Tanev has 6 career goals Edited February 14, 20187 yr by Goalie
February 14, 20187 yr comment_319049 Tanev has a role and he fills it. The Jets are definitely better with him in the line up. Especially will be valuable in the playoffs. Yeah I said the p word. Edited February 14, 20187 yr by kelownabomberfan

Thorburn wasnt good. Next time realize hockey is about scoring the most goals.. Tanev has 6 career goals You clearly didn't. I just out pointed average PPG and the difference is beyond negligible between the three players. I'm not sure what's so difficult for you to grasp. If you think advanced statistics mean nothing, your understanding of the game is literally as clueless as your commentary in this thread. Brandon Tanev is statistically a better bottom 6 forward than Thorburn. His possession metrics are better, he's a better 200 ft. player, and he's not a liability like Thorburn was (check out his career -39 +/-). He also costs $200K less and has better statistics all around this season. If sports are all about what you've done lately, then Tanev is without question the better forward this season, as evidenced by his better numbers, PPG average, and possession metrics. There's no debate whatsoever. https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/t/tanevbr01.html https://www.hockey-reference.com/players/t/thorbch01.html And hockey's about winning, actually. Scoring goals is just as important as preventing them. Edited February 14, 20187 yr by blue_gold_84 links added
February 14, 20187 yr comment_319076 No DAMN way you leave Laine with Copp....how about Roslo with Laine as the second line center drop Little to third line? Wasting out best scorer on the third line....??

Maybe his conditioning /eating program is not quite as good as it could be.

He's great on the pp, but he needs to improve in every other aspect. He's 19 and scores a **** tonne of goals, so I can't complain about him too much though...
February 14, 20187 yr comment_319120 Sophomore slump , almost all athletes experience this. I would not be concerned at all.

They just don't mesh for whatever reason. Btw Laine is also a great passer.. but who cares when he shoots better than 99% of the players in the NHL?

You can't run a team by saying "OK everyone give full effort and play according to the system, except you Laine, you're really good so don't worry about it." It doesn't matter how good a shooter or passer he is... he has to play within the system and give 100%. You can't have a princess on the team.
