“ Although Kahun’s point totals have not been anything spectacular to this point, the way he goes about acquiring them has a striking similarity to Sam Reinhart. Reinhart is poised to anchor the top-line right-wing slot for seasons to come. Kahun’s ability to play a similar style will make him useful on the second line. Looking at their impacts at five-on-five according to Evolving-Hockey illustrates this.

First off, their shot rates are very similar. For every hour on the ice, Reinhart averages 53.6 shot attempts for and 51.98 against for a difference of 1.62. Kahun averages 52.35 attempts for and 50.32 against for a difference of 2.03.

When it comes to how they attack the zone, both go about it the same way. In terms of the quality of chances they generate, Reinhart has an expected goals rate of 2.04 per hour with a 9.93 shooting percentage. Kahun has an expected goals per hour rate of 2.2 with a 10.57 shooting percentage. They may not generate scoring chances in bulk, but they cash in on what they do create.

A final area where Kahun and Reinhart are similar is in their point production rates. Reinhart produces 2.344 points per hour while Kahun averages 2.409. The only difference is in how they’re used. While Reinhart gets premier ice-time on the top line, Kahun has seen similar deployment to Kyle Okposo. No doubt with increased opportunity Kahun’s point totals will continue to rise.”

agreed his value is then gone


honestly his value is gone right now, unless he comes into camp in shape

- homiedclown


It would be a shame if his career doesn't materialize. He has the hands, and even his 5th gear is pretty fast when he gets rumbling.

It's the stamina and the initial burst that he doesnt have.

Well that and he sucks defensively, but I think thats due in a large part to his slow first stride and bad lateral movement

- sbroads24


yes he was. And assuming Kahun does exactly what Reinhart does, and maybe better, is just that. An assumption.

Kahun, Jokiharju, and Skinner were all highway robberies. Meanwhile Adams is trying to figure out at what temperature skating rinks melt.

I'm not putting Mitts's problems on coaching. He wasnt (isnt?) ready for prime time.

Coaches are conservative by nature. Give them the choice between casey for 15 mins a night or the Larrys and they'll take the larrys 11/10 times.

That goes for any coach imo

Oh just like Kubalík,Panarin the same People the blackhawks found at an old age

Just like Kahun who they found ..

They have a great history of finding unknown players but Hey you do you

- gerbe75pts


So because Panarin is amazing and Kubalik is a very good player means Kahun is some hockey deity.

Cool. (frank)ing. Story.
