I’m not a big fan of analyzing momentum, but I feel like it affects this team a lot. In watching games this year, I’ve noticed they really do get into some high highs and low lows. I’d like to see more consistency to the games. Perils of youth I suppose.

Based on the numbers you showed, this is a.500 team that’s shooting its way into some early wins. It’s .3 difference in xGF and xGA. The fact that they are over performing xGF probably means the S% is high and going to regress eventually. Still, PP and great goaltending hides a lot of problems.

Nice efficient analysis. Might have to show this to my public speaking students.

I LOVE Eze’s and Madueke’s willingness to shoot the ball. They’ve been willing to put things on frame, Eze off the volley. It just makes for an extra dimension the team has been lacking.

Anything on Strome? He’s not a big missing piece, but he is a piece who will have an impact on how Senecke’s future goes. Can’t imagine Strome is just dropped to the 4th line.

Kerkering is going to have nightmares about this for the rest of his career.

Interesting. Sennecke will be getting a lot of minutes tonight. Definitely a trial by fire.

The job he wanted isn’t necessarily a good job. Gibby’s contract wasn’t the problem; it was PV asking too much until he had to take a bad contract in return. He sold Z when his value had bottomed out. Right now, he’s doing a middling job. wait until he’s completely failed, we become the Sabres

Normally, I’d agree, but Verbeek’s record on this rebuild is iffy. He waited too long to sell Gibby and Z, probably shouldn’t have sold Z, has forced unnecessary holdouts with key RFAs, is putting too much faith in veterans instead of trading for high quality prime players, and lies to the media.

If they don’t make it, he should be gone, but I think the Samuelisdon’t have it in them. Hiring him was a minor spectacle, pulling in legends from the team to make the decision. We also saw how Murray had to force their hand. They’ll give him another contract unless the team implodes.

Cutter’s contract isn’t getting signed before the offseason unless he scores 25 before the all-star break. Even then…

I know Eze missed that attempt earlier, but I love his willingness to shoot. We’ve needed a player like that for a long time. They’re going to start going in eventually.

Wasn’t Terry also his first contract? It definitely went a little long, but he’s maybe the only outlier.

It’s because he has arbitration rights. Verbeek only plays hardball with players he thinks have no leverage. That’s why he gives out sweet deals to free agents too.

It’s great that you think fair elections would still be possible in that situation. The world needs optimists.

I think Wareen is going to find very steady work with us when Gudas and Trouba leave this summer.

I like seeing the rotation. No point running guys who aren’t 100%.
