Is this just more of Lefty's confirmation bias?

So how long do we give Granlund a free pass? Sure the kid plays well defensively, but .like Gaunce, doesn't offer up much in the way of offense.
Averaging 16:33 per game with 3 points is a piss poor stat. This guy appears to be left alone by the many critics in here because he had a mediocre season last year.
This guy is below the point totals of Jake,( the team's lowest ice time recever). Jake plays 7 minutes less than Granlund, usually has to babysit 2 players that aren't capable to be in this league, other than their "legendary" status.
Time for this team and it's fans to quit giving players free rides for past performance, or perceived performance in Granlund's case.
We are extremely quick to jump all over players like Virtanen or Gudbranson or Sutter or Dorsett or Edler, yet golden boys like Stecher or Granlund escape this criticism.

Had another assist in the 2nd so that ties him for the league lead.

They keep throwing up stats but its all in Swedish so I can't quite understand - but every one they show is like.....
Forsberg
Gradin
Pettersson
Sedin

I think he's starting to break records

Nylander's a soft Euro though and a bust of a pick.

Kid shouldn't get any credit passing Nylander.

Forsberg on the other hand. Not bad at all

Not sure if youre being sarcastic but i think willy nylander is easily the 2nd best player and forward on the leafs. I think he is a damn good player

You seem to forget that both the twins and granlund are positive corsi players.

That is all that matters, not goals or wins, but corsi.

It does actually show that they are doing positive things on the ice and arn't liabilities out there, unlike some players.

Granlund had 19 goals last year , Sutter 17? . They were both top 5 goal scores and you put them as a shut down line against other teams best. Doesn't sound like smart coaching

I am very happy to hear about Pettersson but would be much happier if it was on North American rinks against NA players. They have a little more bite.
