Gotta think Mike Green could help a few contenders - he looks amazing

Its his MO. He will have a stretch for good games but at the end of the day, his numbers reflect how bad he is.

He's been good all year.

The basic stats indicate otherwise, but for those that actually watch the games, you can see that he makes multiple big saves every night he is in net.

If the 'Hawks had a good defense, his numbers would be looking much, much better.

What a difference 2 scoring lines make for this team. They are probably better than all the 500 teams now. That defense though, at times woof, something they need to improve on.

Strome covered no one there.

Yeah he’s not an NHL player right? Total bust. Terrible trade by Stan.

Yeah and guys who get paid appear to be wrong about him,too. He is fine in the O-zone. He needs work in his own zone.

Some of it is him not controlling rebounds.

Yes he does - he’s only 21 (for another three weeks) with only 80 games - and none in the AHL.

I like ward. I’ve said before that if Tony O played behind this defense in his rookie year, we would only know him as Tony today.

He had 53 points in 50 AHL regular season games and 8 points in 9 AHL playoff games. But still, he's only 21 and should improve a lot by next year.

Exactly. Only 21 and has given the Hawks a 2C to anchor another scoring line. Dinky and Strome are both young and can learn defense.

Yes- last season - HockeyReference doesn’t show it - but my error.

Doesn’t change my analysis of where he is.
