hockeydude474 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 This is purely an opinion thread. I'd love to get a feel for some of the players that people on this forum downright do not like (either based on their play our other intangibles). For me, my least favourite player is Ronalds Kenins. I don't think he brings much in terms of a fine skill set. In my opinion he is a very run of the mill fourth line / ahl player. His 3 goals this season have been more lucky than anything else. He seems to have a lot of turn overs in the offensive zone and generally does not have a whole lot of hockey sense. Also lately he's been given some absolute gifts of passes and has shown absolutely no finish. I acknowledge that he plays hard and hits but, seriously, a lot of players in the league can do that. The main reason I don't like him is because people on this forum seem to be absolutely high on the guy - As if he is beyond a generic 4th liner / career ahler. I saw someone post recently proposing the idea of Kenins winning the calder next year. I mean, seriously, what the heck? that's ABSURD! Let me know what y'all think.

hockeydude474 Posted April 5, 2015 Author Share Posted April 5, 2015 Vey Cool, any further elaboration as to why that is? Just to get a more substantial feel for the dislike of the player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathew Barzal Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Matthias. - Never anticipates, always chases. (it's like a scrimmage for him when he's on the ice with the amount of laps he takes chasing the puck from one end to the other.) - Refuses to play physically. - Constantly doing flyby's when he could be pressuring the opposition. - Has severe tunnel vision, unless he's looking in a straight line and making eye contact with a passing option he will not dish the puck. There you have it. Why I hate the player CDC is in love with in a nutshell. That being said, I don't think he should be benched or waived. That's kind of dumb.

LaBamba Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 If I had little to no physical contact with flesh and blood human beings I would also start a similar thread. It would soothe me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time Lord Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Vey Zfetch pls I would have to go with Matthias or Kassian. I don't hate them, but I like them the least. I used to not like Higgins but he's underrated these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken kaniff Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Not a big fan of Kassian either. I want him to succeed but he's just nit very likeable. Doesn't play the way a guy of his size and skill should play and that pisses me off sometimes. As for who should be benched. Both Kenins and Vey. Kenins was very serviceable in the first 10 games he played but has fallen off. Sloppy play at both ends and hasn't brought much else lately. If he can get the urgency back he can be a good 4th liner. Vey has skill, you can tell by the way he plays, but he gets knocked off the puck for too often and has been dreadful on faceoffs.

MrCanuck94 Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Vey easily. Just don't see a fit with him on our team and tbh just don't like the way he plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
