Vincanni 1 Report post Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) Considering he's on pace for 46 points (A career high and great for 1.2 mil,) our wings are on top of the league at the moment, and considering he often uses his shot like a defensemen does, a la Lidstrom (who has a lower shot percentage.) I think Mikael Samuelsson might be the best (and most delusionally attached) whipping boy in the NHL. At least it's better than blaming a goalie as per normal. P.S. Take a drink whenever Sammy's unfairly dogged on. Edited February 2, 2008 by Vincanni Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not in the least bit, Sammy bashing has always been a pet peeve of mine. Granted I generally hate it whenever anyone singles out one player or person as the entire reason a team loses.

I think Mikael Samuelsson might be the best (and most delusionally attached) whipping boy in the NHL. At least it's better than blaming a goalie as per normal. P.S. Take a drink whenever Sammy's unfairly dogged on. To basically continue off this quote, if most of Samuelsson's shots stink and has a low shot percentage, then with this line of thinking, we should be getting all over Lidstrom's case then since, even though he is a defensemen he is capable of putting up decent offensive numbers for a d-man, his shot percentage is EVEN LOWER than that of Samuelsson's. DISCLAIMER: Before people throw at me, no I am not actually going to give Lidstrom a hard time and I know he is paid to play defense first and has so many other traits that make him great and important. And you know what's going to be pitiful...most people on here are just going to see "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH GARBUNCKLE SAMULESSON BLAH BLAH GARBUNCKLE" and just continue on coming close to getting a wet dream obsessively pinning him as a scapegoat, in an unfair fashion more often than not.
