Just a below replacement level player

I hate Manson. The he is a dirty player and pisses me off. Anahiem doesn't want to move him so I ain't overpaying for him

It seems to me that so many don't understand how the cap for 2020/21 is determined. It determined by the revenues of the 2019/20 season.
Pre virus the NHL projected a 86m cap. Now losing 25% of it's revenue this season, gee the cap could down 21m to 65m. Not saying it is going THAT much for next season, but if it does down, you can be sure the NHLPA will want all players taking a reduction not just the ones who currently don't have signed contracts. Now there might be compliance buyout(s), but the NHL isn't going to be forcing teams sell off their players due the previous projections 86m cap. Besides there just aren't enough teams being able to take on all these dumped contracts because so many teams are close to the cap.

Vlassic can easily be compare to Ryan McDonagh. Stats wise they have very similar number. They got use in a very similar ways, mostly in shutdown role. So McDonagh is a ahl players to?
You think that because they don’t have a lot of point they can’t play with the puck but the thing you niss here is there are fine with the puck they are just more careful with it. They don’t commit stupid turnovers or giveaways. Zdeno Chara is another example. Slow, old, doesnt olay well with the puck. Ahl caliber player who managed to play 1500 game in nhl. Maybe they have a certain utility finally

I feel like they should reduce player salaries because they have done it before. Next year it could just go back to normal

So you check stats and put one he is bad at and think that validate anything? There about 100 advanced stats out there so you can’t basically do this exercices with everyplayers. Since there just few defenseman that excel in every aspect of the game. He is one of the best to shutdown zone entry. He excel in defensive zone pass intercepted. Guess he do some good thing to

Whats a good stats website I can't find any

Depending on what you are looking for? Hockey reference , evolving hockey, puck pedia, natural stat trick

Mcdonagh has way better numbers. He is actually able to skate and move the puck. Hes also has a positive GAR and xGAR. Giveaways and takeaways are extremely subjective stats but mcdonagh has the puck on his stick a whole lot more then vlasic throughout the game. Hes also managed to rack up more takeaways and give the puck up less times so experience has absolutely nothing to do with it. Sure hes managed to play 1500 games but for the past season or two he hasn't preformed at an nhl level. What hes done in the past has nothing to do with anything anymore. Theres enough of a sample size of him not being capable of playing at the nhl level. Ray Bourque played over 1500 games so why isnt he playing on an nhl team anymore? Because hes not capable of doing so

defensive stats?

Maybe because he is 60+ years old that he doesnt play anymore. Man you got serious issues. Will you start bringing death players like Tim Horton!

And goal above replacement isn’t a official Hockey stats use by the Nhl. Because this stats is related directly with the 4 other players who hit the ice with him.

off the top he provides absolutely nothing offensively and will barely get any points which dont matter that much anyway.hes a horrible shot and xG share payer meaning he gets caved in whenever hes on the ice. he plays against top competition with other very good players but gets ****ty results meaning he shouldnt be playing there. now if we look at his overall skill we know he doesnt have the talent to succeed on the 3rd pair either. as for his penalty killing ability he does have good zone entry denial numbers (nothing earth shattering and slightly worse then martin marincins) but he can do anything to regain possession of the puck and he is bad at blocking passing lanes. sure he has some positive attributes but overall the negatives outweigh the positives and it isnt even close.

I dont think you have any idea what GAR is and I definitely know you dont have any idea about what stats hockey teams use. theres a big difference in what you can find on nhl.com and what teams use

Stop trying to convince people with your bullshat! Everyone one around here agreed that Vlassic isn’t the defenseman he use to be a couple year prior but everyone agreed that he is still usefull and affective. All the stats you been pushing are false pretenses and the fact that the sharks are all having a down year affect everyone stats. That doesn’t mean the hole teams is ahl stuff.
The only thing that keep you goiing is your hatred For Vlasic, since all the bullshat you are saying about is tuenovers rate and pass block ability and retrival puck are all made up. Get a life

its pretty much the same thing, i dont know what youre getting so offended for. youre first point was that vlasic is still an nhl player because hes played 1500 games but thats extremely dumb. if we apply that knowledge then bourque should be an nhl player. Vlasic has played over 1500 games but isnt capable of playing in the nhl anymore but you say hes an nhl defenseman, Bourque has played over 1500 games but isnt capable anymore and hes not an nhl defenseman? sure their age is different but they fall under the same category

damn my bad. im sorry the facts arent in youre favor. the sharks certainly werent this bad last season and I also didnt realize his teammates were purposefully breaking his sticks and dulling his skate blades so he couldnt skate or make a play anymore. Im not sure how else to describe this to you but being below replacement level generally means they arent useful. I guess I never thought how important it was to have a guy who can only prevent zone entries on the penalty kill (a situation that less then 10% of the game is played at). theres so much anger and denial here but I guess when you quoted me for the 1st time you were really talking about yourself:



Whats it like living in a fantasy land? on another level thats enough weed for tonight.

could u picture it Lafreniere with Matthews and Nylander on the top line oh a fan can dream lul

But you can get rid of Vlasic and Jones this way

Dont then we will find another team or just hold on to him, this isnt a marleau situation

But why lose a first and third in a stacked draft? every single team gets one why overpay toronto for it, thats more than they paid for marleau and that had salary cap impact

Cause were not on the same team?!?!? Teams aren't just gonna take these bad contracts for free

Its a free buyout. When the leafs traded a first, marleaus buout hurt the teams. These wouldnt
