Skinner has 10 goals in his last 30 games.

"But he's a 50 goal scorer with Eichel!" or whatever.

The top teams are, sure. what happens when half or more of the league simply cannot compete? how about more players pulling AD stunts and just straight quitting on their teams? If players want a say, start your own league or wait until free agency. Until then, you're an employee. I guess you just want to see 10 team leagues in cities like NY, Miami, L.A., etc. That's dumb.

So, baseball?

If your boss came to you and said "we're sending you to Minot, ND(or whatever poophole would be the biggest poophole to you)" you be totally fine with that? You wouldn't try and blow it up? Bullpoop.

Or teams like Milwaukee, Indiana, OK City, Toronto, Philly, Denver.

All teams who are good that were built through the draft.

Toronto and Philly are both ~6M population markets, each city has more people than the entire state of Wisconsin.

Which is a 44 goal pace over a full season.

My point all along has been that he's wildly inconsistent and that the 30 goals in 44 games was way outside the norm for him.

He's coming back down to where he should be.

Goal scorers are almost by definition wildly inconsistent. But I don't think he has been that inconsistent really, he started out on fire, cooled off a bit, but not much, and has pretty much kept it up. He's had a couple of cold streaks, but look at every other top 20 goal scorer they all have like 8-10+ game cold streaks, and he still never went more than 4 without scoring until this 10 game goalless drought. Matthews(1 goal in 13 straight), Ovechkin(1 in 10) and Kane(2 in 17) all have really long cold streaks and they're the best scorers in the league.

Too soon.

Edit: I'm glad someone knocked that down. I set it up very nicely.

I didn't look it up, I'm positive someone will correct if I'm wrong...
Can we tie his dip to around his injury?
It's been 10 games without a goal...feels like about 6 or 7 from the injury

I don't really think so, he doesn't seem to be off. He's just not getting bounces. It's normal.

It was like you put a beachball on a tee and gave me one of these to hit it with:

Just how high do you envision the Tee to be...more than 3-1/4" but less than 6'
... seems like about 3-1/2 feet would be good for most.

I have noticed Jack shooting a bit more, not giving those juicy set-ups 2-3 times a game as much...wonder if he is in an internal competition...or if he has a bonus for 30 Goals his ownself.
