After 2 weeks (12 games) into the season here’s a breakdown of who is performing up to expectations or exceeding and who is not pulling their weight for each team…
San Jose Sharks:
Hot – Fwd Bartlett—67 (12GP, 40Pts), Staleee-(8GP, 31pts)
D Wardo_05 (6GP, 12pts)
G Itsjustskillzz_ (2-0, 83.33SV%)
Not- Fwd Itsjustskillzz (3GP, 5pts)
D – Randymarsh2012 (6GP, -1.0GV:TK)
Hot – Bartlett has been running this team’s offence so far this season, 2nd in points with the most games played (ass), while Staleee has been the main guy putting the puck in the back of the net for the Sharks Squad. Wardo has been playing some solid defense while maintaining offensive production with a 2.0ppg. In net, itsjustskillzz showing he can be a solid starter for this squad going 2-0 with a 2.0 GAA and 83.33SV%.
Not – Itsjustskillz not quite putting up the offensive numbers he’s hoped for so far this season in 3 games playing with the top line only averaging a 1.7ppg. Randymarsh is sending pizza’s up the middle of the ice on RD having a -1.0GV/TK after 6 games. Who the hell is the GM of this team? and why do they put that dumbass back there? ong
Detroit Red Wings:
Hot – Fwd – Hardiee (9GP,43Pts), Chadkillz134 (9GP,36pts)
D – Beantwn_Beatddwn (9GP,+27, 3.67GV/TK)
G- MrlolChico (4-1, 85.92SV%)
Not – Fwd – TwnsPepsi (6GP,11Pts)
G – Duges39(2-1, 64.52SV%)
Hot – Hardie is leading the league in goals and points this season so far and averaging a 4.8ppg through 9 games (he’s still ass tho). Chadkillz the reigning rocket and art ross winner also off to a hot start with a 4.0ppg and sitting 3rd in the league in points. Special credit also goes to hypeyy for being the C on that line just behind them in points as well. Beantwn is also playing some real solid defense for this squad leading the league in +/- while maintaining a strong GV/TK ratio. Last but not least MrlolChico putting up Vezina numbers through 5 games with a 2.0 GAA and a 85.92SV%.
Not – Twnspepsi looks to be having some trouble clicking on offense with this squad only putting up 1.7ppg in 6 games this season, very unlike him to not have a 2.5ppg or higher so I don’t expect this to last long. Duges39 has a questionable SV% to start his season, I’m not sure if this is on par for his usual playing ability or not but none the less he seems to be struggling in G for the squad.
Toronto Maple Leafs:
Hot – Fwd – BejimoSzn (9GP,31Pts), JCpens22 (7GP,20Pts)
D – HeroicSaunter (7GP, 31Hits, 6.14GV/TK)
G – Sorokin (3-1-2, 77.65SV%)
Not – Fwd – Dirty-Dietrich (2GP,1pt)
G – Bufford80 (2-3, 71.64SV%)
Hot – Bejimo coming off his Calder season, is off to a great start for this squad, putting up strong numbers for this team and leading the way offensively. Jcpens also putting up some good numbers to start this season with a 2.9ppg and staying positive in the GV/TK ratio with a 3.14 which is uncommon for forwards. Heroic Saunter is playing strong defense with a solid 31 hits through 7 games and a 6.14GV/TK ratio. Sorokin a late addition to the roster, is playing some solid G for this squad keeping these guys in games and putting up a solid 77 SV%.
Not – Dirty D had a tough 2 games so far on fwd only putting up a single point, the team will need more from him if they want to continue winning games. Bufford80, although he did record a shutout this season, let up 19 goals in 4 games in the other contests going 1-3, Toronto is going to need more of the shutout Bufford and less of the 4.8GAA Bufford.
Washington Capitals:
Hot – Fwd – Fluri37 (9GP, 35Pts), Semple19 (7GP, 31pts), Prodigytolegend (9GP, 30Pts)
D – ll-Dustin-ll (5GP, 11pts)
Not – D – Eggman (5gp, 0pts, -2), Iamsmokey (3GP 2pts, -3)
Hot – This forward line is the 2nd hottest in the league right now carrying the offense and leading them to W’s. Semple is a +17 through 7 games which is crazy cause this guy is so ass at the game, always taking penalties n’ shit. Fluri and Prod seem to do better when he’s in the lineup though looking through their stats, so maybe his ass play really brings out the good play in these guys. Dustin is doing great on defense for these guys putting up a 2.2ppg with a +13, looks to be ideal to have Dustin on D while the big 3 are up front.
Not – Eggman and smokey seem to be struggling on the defense side of things being in the minus column on a winning team, could be due to tough match ups and not having the right forwards in front of them, but none the less the boys got to pull their weight back there. I didn’t include goalies in this cause goalieman has seen a lot of rubber over his 8 games in net, so I don’t want to judge his SV% too hard.
Edmonton Oilers:
Hot – Fwd – Beanzy (7GP, 23Pts)
D – Someonestopmepls (4GP 9Pts)
G – Clarke (10GP, 78.07SV%)
Not – Fwd – Ande91 (5GP, 8Pts), Ustoopid (4GP, 6Pts)
Hot – Beanzy looks to be carrying the offense on this team putting up 13 more points than the next highest scoring player on the team. Smiiirk (Someonestopmepls) carrying the load on defense with a 2.3ppg in 4 games. Clake is playing all Edmontons games and managing a 2.5GAA which is respectable for the opposing forward talent in the league this season.
Not – Ande and Ustoopid are way better players than 1.6ppg and 1.5ppg. They’ve had a rough first 2 shortened weeks, but I wouldn’t expect that trend to last much longer.
Philadelphia Flyers:
Hot – Fwd – Hughsy (8GP, 26pts), Kidmoney (6GP, 19pts), Pickletickler (8GP, 22pts), Lxppy (2GP, 10pts)
D – EL_Rookie (5GP, 9pts)
Not – Cuban (8GP, 25PIMs, -8) and WheelchairDevon (3GP 17PIMs, -13)
Hot – These Philly forwards are running the show for this squad up front with multiple contributors with Hughsy(with his small wiener) leading the way with 26pts. Kidmoney also putting the puck in the back of the net with 10 on the season which means he now has 1001 career SP goals on Forward! Congrats Jason! Lxppy with a 5.0ppg in 2 games, need more games for this guy to get a load off Hughsy’s back. Then you have Pickle, sure his stats look good, but he has a brutal -14 which is complete ass, so obviously he’s getting carried, but he’s good at getting carried so congrats Tickler! El_Rookie on D looks to be the only solid/consistent guy they have putting up a 1.8ppg and doesn’t have an aggressive amount of PIMs.
Not – This D core of Cuban and WheelchairDevon is crazzzy with the bad +/- and lots of PIMs. These guys need to clean it up a bit to help their poor G’s and let those forwards heat up more up front. Also, PIckletickler has a god awful league leading -14 on forward, not a defensive bone in the kid.
Montreal Canadiens:
Hot – Fwd – LeCupidon (10GP, 32pts), Reapz (12GP, 32pts), Chief2Step (8GP, 23pts)
D – CaptCanada (4GP, 5pts +3)
Not – G – JeanTheDon42 (3-3, 61.96SV%)
Hot – LeCupidon and Reaps are back at it trying to carry this team to success with solid offensive numbers to start the season. Chief2Step has been a solid contributing factor as well playing C between these guys and averaging a 2.9ppg. CaptCanada is showing why she is one of the most consistent D with a positive +/- on a losing team and contributing with some assists along the way.
Not – JeanTheDon has had a rough go so far into this season with a 5.83GAA and a 62Sv% which is not the same goalie we have seen in the past in SP. He will need to pull up his socks some if he wants more playing time.
Vegas Golden Knights:
Hot – Fwd – Zercylol (7GP, 15pts)
D – TuckitTeal (4GP, 5pts) John_Dean16 (2GP 2pts)
Not – Fwd – iZinczyi (3GP, 5pts), Saucy (3GP, 3pts), Nitro_96 (3GP, 5pts)
Hot – Although they aren’t impressive stats, compared to the rest of this Vegas team Zercy seems to be the only one doing anything offensively with 10 more points than the next best player. TuckitTeal, a new player to the league seems to be carrying his weight on D with a 1.25ppg. John Deans stats in his 2 games played looks like he was the only one on the ice doing anything with the puck to try and help this team to success.
Not – Zincy, Saucy, and Nitro are all very good players who are underperforming so far this season for the Knights, they don’t have many games played yet, so one can only expect these guys will turn it around soon.
Colorado Avalanche:
Hot – G – FxtDino (2-0, 85Sv%)
Not – Fwd – Benji-Frank-100 (5GP, 8pts), groweski (4Gp, 1pt), JubJJJJJub (3GP, 2pts)
D – JubJJJJJub (3GP, -10), Benji-Frank-100 (6GP, 3pts, -3)
G – Pliskin (2-5, 67.05Sv%)
Hot – FxtDino is the only player on this squad with respectable numbers so far this season. He has put up 2 W’s in both his starts and backed it up with a solid 1.5GAA. Tommy and Cpenn both have decent forward stats but I would not call them hot, they both can do better. Pistolpete is also doing decent offensively from the blueline but his -7 is not a good look when he only has 6pts.
Not – BenjiFrank is having a tough season so far in Colorado, putting up subpar numbers compared to his usual self from past seasons on both defense and offense. Colorado’s rookies groweski and JubJJJJJub are also not living up to their potential on this team, they were expected to contribute more offensively and have not gotten the job done. Pliskin’s 2-5 G record and his 4.1 GAA are telling me his cat is sitting on his lap for most of these games, stop patting your cat Plisk it’s costing you games!
Seattle Kraken:
Hot – Fwd – FreezeMothasucka (5GP, 12pts), Spelliscy_21 (5GP, 10pts)
Not – Fwd – NowYoDead (3GP, -12)
D – Teamrun420 (7GP, 1pt)
G – Blade0Muffin (2-7, 68.38Sv%)
Hot – The fact that Freeze and Spells have an even +/- through 5 games tells me they’re doing something right out there for this team. Their ppg aren’t high but they must be backchecking some hard. Got to find some positives for this squad.
Not – NowYoDead has not had much luck up front this season, having 3pts and a -12 in three games is frustrating hockey to say the least. Teamrun420 only having 1 assist through seven games tells me he is having a hard time on the blueline this season. Blademuffin, I don’t believe his stats are all his fault because he is relied on heavily with this team and does not have much support. But I believe he can still be better than he has been playing.
It took me a long ass time to write this up, super gutless. Next time I do something like this it will be more ‘players of the week’ based and not a team breakdown. If your name wasn’t mentioned, it means you’re being a basic bitch out there so time to step it up!
Stay Gutless SP,
