Nah but maybe Gaud’s playing with Miller and Virtanen’s playing in the top 6 for a reason? It’s a stretch but who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post fanfor42 Posted February 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) It has made me curious why both JV and Gaud have fallen off a cliff at the same time. 36 pts Virt last year. 33 points Gaud last year. Gaud played Centre last year. Both had a poor playoffs. Then both completely disappear this year. I don't get it. I am asking if anyone has heard anything about coaching with these guys this year. Is there a reason why two up and coming players have completely evaporated. i mean when does this happen 36 and 33 points down to 2 and 1 point. I cant remember that happening to two players at the same time without any explanation. WTF?

-AJ- Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Funny that both Virtanen and Gaudette fit into that description. Both have been miserably bad this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriGold2.0 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Gotta be something with Nashville. Lots of top 6 talent not performing this year. Although he's 27 Viktor Arvidsson would be somebody we should look at. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilya Mikheyev Posted February 26, 2021 Author Share Posted February 26, 2021 Wouldn't have happened 1-2 years ago but wonder if two struggling forwards could be exchanged Gaudette + pick for Sissons? Also makes Sutter expendable next year ; hometown center ; Nashville gets younger for their refresh ; Benning continues this ol' rebuild on the fly- whether or not we agree with it, probably is going to continue for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greener usually doesn’t make significant changes to the top 6, let alone dropping Miller to the 3rd, so this is different. Could revert back after 1 period for all I know.

Virtanens shooting percentage and IPP (Percentage of points he gets when he is on the ice) were both unsustainably high last year, especially in the first couple months of the season. Gaudette meanwhile has a historically low shooting percentage right now, but he is creating chances, I anticipate him to get more points soon.

Popular Post Chris12345 Posted February 26, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 26, 2021 Serious question: Is there a team in the NHL that doesn't want a top 9 forward under 25? 9 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in the context of this thread if you believe the report that JB is looking for an under 25 top 9 fwd it really is a question. Do they believe both of these guys are done and there is no one in the system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bo's line usually starts the game, plays the 3rd shift then 7th and 10th I think Jake is back on Beagles line by shift 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BPA Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 What the heck would JB trade to get a young top 9 forward??? Better not be a 1st. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
