There's an interview out there where Tkackuk says he's excited to play with Draisaitl and McDavid at the ASG this weekend lol

Meh your argument just morphed until you could get the stats to conform to it. One minute it's blocked shots, take aways, and which player is better, now it's specifically offense in the last 26 games

What's that? Cherry picking stats? Pierre: LGW The puck: Facts The camera: You But not as good as Fabbri

Business idea: Pierre McGuire Red Wings Head Coach

Knock knock > who's there? Filip Zadina > filip zadina who? Filip Zadina has no fans because he was too busy putting crayons up his butt to ever stop and learn the high IQ sport of hockey > *laughter and applause*

The billboard is finally up in Edmonton

Educated hockey minds are waking up to the Zadina apologists One day you will beg our forgiveness

Don't worry it will end up looking way more crumby with a big Amazon @ sign on the top, kinda like our Arena Also unrelated, but I hope they go with Seattle Washington Red Skins for the name. Ya know. For laughs.

Guess the name drop isn't come till march now WTF Alaska Airlines getting an "atrium" too

McGuire says Zadina is one-dimensional It's like he reads my posts

Lafreniere is absolutely Crosby/McDavid level Grow some nuts and just say it nerds

It's still discounting what Fabbri did before Zadina joined the team Fabbri is the better player offensively per minute of even strength time. If you prefer the PP guy, fine. I prefer players who perform at even strength. Fabbri's points per 60 during 5v5 is better than Zadina's though

He was on PP1 literally the last game, it kinda comes with being promoted to 1st line. Zadina has some of the most PP time on the team. He's the #6 PP man in terms of ice time since Cholowski left the team. News to me. You were quoting takeaways and blocks not a few posts ago. You're citing a small sample hot streak. Anecdotally I still prefer Fabbri, and statistically on the season the numbers still support Fabbri.

Yup, and if you want my anecdotal opinion on Zadina I can write you a pretty good book about it. I just don't like to do that anymore because I've done it about 10 er 12 times now and no one ever really disagrees and we move on despite it being a lot of work for me. I recommend searching Zadina and my name. I've written some pretty lengthy reviews of his play going back to Nov 2018 and as early as about 2 weeks ago. It's 100% anecdotal to tell someone that you watched the games and based on ur scouting abilities their opinion is wrong. I made it pretty clear from the beginning I value 5v5 play more than PP work. The PP accounts for only 11% of ice time for the Red Wings this season and I favor players who don't need a man off the ice to score. Zadina scores more during that time than Fabbri and I completely acknowledged that. Good for him. We need PP specialists too. Well u got me there

And Fabbri is on pace for a 55 pt season. Are you proving my point?

I haven't even revealed my full power level yet

Say he loves Comrie, he hat... oh nvm

I mean now your argument is turning anecdotal. Again anecdotal. And Fabbri has been the better player over the course of their combined whole seasons. Again it's an average stat we we're using. When they joined the team and how many games they played literally does not matter. Fabbri scores more at even strength than Zadina does. Zadina has averaged more minutes than Fabbri only the last 3 games. If you want me to take 3 games and judge a player solely on that you're gonna be hard pressed to find cooperation from me. Otherwise I think our discussion has been pretty fair so far, not sure where you think I'm manipulating your argument, but feel free to point it out. I'm good at a lot of things sugar ****

Call him retarded, he hates that

https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/detroit-red-wings/line-combinations/ PP1: Bertuzzi - Larkin - Fabbri Hronek - Zadina No you shouldn't use his AHL stats, you should use Zadina's whole season AND Fabbris. Per/60 is an average stat so it doesn't matter how many more games Fabbri played. He's a better scorer at even strength so far this season objectively.

Zadina and Fabbri are both on PP1 Both players joined the team at different times. Fabbris points per 60 is still better than Zadina's over both their seasons. You're essentially cherry picking when Zadina got hot, and ignoring when Fabbri got hot. That's not fair.

But it's not an advantage for Fabbri. Zadina's points per 60 on the PP is MUCH better than Fabbris. 6.35 compared to 4.35. In fact Zadina's is the best on the team. If anything we're pointing out that Zadina is a PP specialist and Fabbri is the better player the majority of the game; even strength. And I would suspect that's why he receives more ice-time than Zadina. Also both Zadina and Fabbri are on the 1st unit I mean I knew Zadina's was going to be good because he's been scoring lately so I'm really not surprised. I was just interested to know. We'll see how it goes. Eventually I'm going to look at both players total seasons at the end. That's why I'm using per 60. Fabbri also hits a lot per game for a smallish player, whereas Zadina shys away. Worst hits per60 of all our forwards. Fabbri's blocks per game aren't impressive, but then again neither are Zadina's. For takeaways I've always up and down praised Zadina's takeaway abilities, I'm pretty sure I was the first one to fawn over them, at least around here. I'll take that to mean I accurately assessed him

We don't need another AHL goalie. If we did Yzerman would just sign one. Novel concept.

Pretty sure you're using total ice-time numbers. I'm using numbers adjusted for 5v5 play. You can disagree, but I think 5v5 play is a far better measure of a player. Adjusted for 5v5 Fabbri is at 1.86 versus Zadina's 1.56. A much bigger margin considering that represents about a 24 pt difference in even strength per 60 spread over 82 games. Check my math there. They both have 8 pts in their last 15. Considering Fabbri gets about 3 shifts more a game than Zadina, yes his scoring per 60 should be lower over the last 15. I'd like to see how those numbers have changed since Zadina joined the top line, but I can't isolate that. Maybe you can?

Traded for nothing. Unclaimed by 30 teams except his draft team. Then unclaimed by 31 teams. Conclusion: THIS GOALIE HAS POTENTIAL
