2 points in 3 games against PITT
0 points against Philly
1 point in 2 games against Colorado

Do you really no think his PPG is better against under .500 teams than over .500 teams?

Welcome to sports

2 games 0 points against Jets

2 games 1 point against Kings

2 games 1 point against Coyotes

Idk if his PPG is better, but his production vs bad/good teams is definitely close.

He had 17 points in 10 games against the 3 worst teams in the conference (NJ,DET,OTT)

He had 14 points in 13 games against the 3 best teams in the conference (BOS, WSH, TB)

I dont think I've ever been this confident about a Buffalo sports team as I am about these Bills. I'm already hoping that the Steelers can pull it out against the Browns because if they only have to beat the Colts and Steelers to get to KC, that's a cake walk. This week doesn't even factor for me

Since week 11 Colts are 31st in pass defense. Given up avg of 296 yds per game over that stretch. For the season they have allowed 53 completions of at least 20 yds which is 9th most

So they are pretty similar even with a really low sample size. Add in the other bad teams and good teams and see what it is.

Dont think how good a player plays against good teams vs. bad teams really determines how good they will turn out. Steady progression upwards is what I want to see.

Think this is there vision of a playoff team. They seam to think we have a bunch of highend skill on the team as is and want to add some determination and toughness. Fill in some of the wholes. Im ok with that.

Wait a minute your numbers aren't really adding up.

4 pts in 4 games against Tampa

2 pts in 3 games against Boston

1 pt in 2 games against Washginton

That's 9 games? Where are the other 4 games?

That’s not really similar at all

That’s a 139 point season against the worst compared to a 87 point season against the good teams

This is what players do. Beat up on bad opponents

Now compare that to Rossi's ppg.

He would have 242 points in 82 games against bad teams

He would have 118 points in 82 games against good teams

That's a huge difference. Having that much of your production come from bad teams is a red flag. I don't get how you don't think that's an issue.

You're still gonna need to do the others teams Jack faced though. A 13 game vs 9 game sample size is extremely small.

Which is the exact same as Quinn. So I don't understand how that's a problem for one but not the other

One is a Sabres prospect and the other one isn’t.

If we were all Preds fans we’d all be crying about Quinn’s ice time to date and how he’s playing more then a 13th forward role

Look at almost any strength of schedule list and the Colts are at the bottom or bottom 3.

That colts/steelers game 2 weeks ago was straight up depressing. Two old men playing check down football

Because Quinn doesn't have an insane drop in production against good teams.

He’s probably going to score the golden goal because that’s usually how it works.

The guy the nation poops on the whole tournament, or the guy nobody’s heard of always plays the hero

I'm gonna say cozens gets the winner for canada
Zegras for the USA

I still don’t get why it matters.

They both produce the same against good teams.

One of them crushes bad ones

This seems like a made up criticism

It’s more concerning to me that Quinn doesn’t destroy lesser competition

So there's an opening for ..... R2 ?

Yeah, I mean I just don't see a top 10 guy. Really hope he has a great game tonight and leaves us with a good taste because this could be a challenging year for him

According the big bob mckenzie

Cozens and Quinn being flown to buffalo right after the game. Since flying on a private jet. They don’t have to quarantine and can practice right away.
