That one day this great board can move on from the expectations set from the position players were drafted, and instead accept them for the role they can actually fill.

Like our expectations from zacha, based on reports from someone and 6th picking(diploma`s analogy) everybody waits beautiful offensive results from zacha. He is decent 3rd line forward? it does not matter because 6th picks expectations. It isn`t zacha`s expected job. anyway you cant argue with mfitz for being complete loser because he can`t see arguments under his own nose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lateralous Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 After reading the last page or so, I’m not sure if it’s funny or sad that Zacha is tied for 4th in scoring for the devils. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second in assists after Goose. He’s been much better on that front. Just can’t score to save his life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't learned how to get that shot off quickly. When he has time he can beat a goalie (and hit the post) but in the NHL you aren't gonna get a lot of time to shoot.

And ruined it. Havnt enough expirince in word sequences. But when i read disputes about nothing, (for example - between one canadian and one floridian) where one does not understand what exactly the other meant - I do myself a favor.

How awesome would it be if those three became a sort of "A- (as in A minus) Line"? Arnott looked like a lost cause when he first came to the Devils (much like Zacha did at times during his first few seasons here)...Arnott obviously been more productive prior during his stint with the Oilers, but in his first 73 GP as a Devil, he put up just 13 G and 19 A, and already had people wondering if the Oilers got the better end of that trade...then over his final 36 GP of his first full season with the Devils, he had 18 G and 18 A...and at the time, it really felt like that came out of nowhere. I'm not going to ask THAT out of Zacha, but really would be beyond great if he's finally found a pair of wingers that he just clicks with. FWIW, Zacha does have 5 G and 7 A in his last 16 GP (Goose has 4 G and 9 A in 16 GP and Bratt has 7 G and 6 A in 15 GP in the same time frame). Just hope it's not the latest tease for Pavel.

lazer Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 thats decent, especially if he scores that gwg in a cup series. eller did and thats the issue i have if he is clutch, all will be forgotten. clutch vs points could have been good for a few more wins this year, especially when they were needed early on. now that games dont matter, clutch has value.

lazer Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 zacha needs to go hard to the net and clean up rebounds and screen. more physicality may open up some ice and give him space idk, lgd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
