Middlefat is the new whipping boy.

One has 13 points one has 3. Not sure how your statement is correct. Sounds like a hunch.

- ZiggyBuff


One is -9 and one is -4

You do know defense is part of the game right?

This is an example of cherry-picking stats


It’s not a good stat to compare players by
Doesn’t account for:
-who you’re playing with
-who you’re playing against
-how you’re dispersed (O zone vs D zone starts)

This is the problem with almost all analytical points made on here
It’s a small fragment of the whole truth

The truth is Casey is playing badly and Krebs is outproducing him

Krebs has been on the ice a lot less than Mitts, his +/- would be almost the same as Mitts with the extra minutes. His points on the other hand, would not be.

It's not hard to figure out, this is a make or break year for Mitts, so he's going to get ice time. Krebs, well he has another two seasons before he's on the chopping block. But they should send Krebs down, if they aren't going to play him. Let him build some chemistry with his future linemates and perhaps add some weight to that nonexistent frame.

Last 2 gmaes Mittle-Shat ice tme was cut to under 10 mins a game, same franking result, -3 in those games.

He SUCKS. atleast with Tage you could see the talent, Mittle-shat shows nothing..

Seriously, what the hell has krebs done for you to want to shove him down your throat? Constantly?

And now try and force him down others throats?

Those 3 assists must have been memorable

- Boss34


You make no sense.

Majority of people here have had enough of the Mitts/Olo duo. Me included.

Krebs would be no worse. Actually would have a postivite impact defesivley.

Why do you people not understand this?

Those PP points are over valued by you and Lacapruns

One has 9pts on the PP, while the other has 3pts at even strength in 5 or 6 less games. Nice to have the points but Mitts does nothing a 5 on 5, he's a ⚫️

I said Krebs is a good NHL player? When was this?

Mitts is no better I can assure you.

- DirtyDan


Thanks for the hunch

I'll trust my own eyes.

Tell us more about how horrible joker is as a top 4.
But, he's a great #5.
Another get dirty d hunch

Both these numbers are awful though

Mitts at least produces on special teams and can kill penalties if needed

- sbroads24


He did alright early in the year. He couldn't kill time hes so bad lately.

Judging “defense” strictly using +\- is about as flawed as it gets though
That’s another garbage stat

You are playing "pretend".

Nothing you said has a ounce of facutuality.

It's just a long winded guess or opinion.

The scoring stats have been posted, fine if you want to ignore them

Asplund is the floater, not olo.

I cant believe the love affair for asplund?

Maybe the "lun" in asplund makes you like him?

Didn't even mention his name. I know it's tough watching your line take this beating.

Its pretend to think Krebs is better defesivley?

Look at the stats my guy. Look at the the last 5 mins of the 3rd against tampa or last nights game where he was on for 2 against in less than 10 minutes of playing time.

Your a troll my guy.

They’re often only an incomplete fraction of the whole truth

And stats based on shots for/against are basically just the analytical +\-
More garbage stats


And bottom line,
no one is forcing u to use mediocre stats to back up your points dude

For years?

I liked him last year. I thought he would be better this year but he had a horrible opening 8 ish games before he got injured.

Would be better served on the 3rd pairing.

I also said hes been good since hes been back form injury but you ingore that too. For your own self interest.

This isn’t true though -

In All situations- PP, PK, 5 on 5

Mitts - 2.14 P/60

Krebs .88 p/60


Now obviously Mitts had some advantages on PP1 for a while, but also disadvantages being on the PK when Krebs was not
