Enforceror Verified Member Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 Did a little digging on our FNG. Appears he was stapled to Marchand and Lindholm in the top 6 and played 57 games and 739 minutes this season. 25% of goals are from rebounds. 8/10 assists are primary. He's on the 2nd PP unit. Starts a lot in the Neutral zone (maybe he utilizes the tank approach to bring the puck into the OZ???). IMO, his stats suggest that he doesn't impact play much (very average) and is an opportunistic scorer. Seems like he likes to play close to the net but stats reveal he has mostly low/med danger shot attempts. Possible he crashes the net to grab rebounds. No glaring deficiencies that I noticed. Only 6 PIM this season surprisingly. He does have a little bit of playoff experience and managed to rack up a few goals/points. I visited a couple Bruins forums to see what the general consensus is. The common theme is that he is SLOW. Others mentioned his production has fallen off recently and is backed up him going goal-less for the last 17 games. For perspective, they did not seem too excited about getting Lauko back either. Several posters commented that Lauko was more aggressive. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hydguy75 Verified Member Posted Sunday at 10:54 PM Share Posted Sunday at 10:54 PM Brazeau isn't putting anyone on notice. But here to say as a Wild fan, the entire f-ing team should be on notice. All of them. This includes the front office f's too. WTF? 24 seasons and we are still f-ing around with mediocrity. How much talent has to come in and go out? Isn't this supposed to be the State of Hockey? Where is the dominance at? Seriously. Here we are another playoff of maybe limping in just to be demolished in the first round. Tired of excuses about Parise Suter contracts, GMBG, etc. Just get it done already. I've already written off every other sports team in MN except the Wild, and about to be done with them too. And you OCL, f- you. Thanks for nothing. We sit in your seats, we buy your jerseys, we watch your games. WTF product are you actually putting out? This middle of the road shit with excuses is same as the Pohlad's with the Twins. If OCL and GMBG doesn't produce something tangible yet this season, I am done.
