All the other points about KK have been mentioned, but there was a very clear reason why KK was playing 4C the entire year. The first reason was to transition him over to the Canes style of play and get him accustomed to that. Besides, KK was on pace to break his best point total in Montreal whilst playing 4th line minutes with players like Martinook, Lorentz, and Stepan, not exactly offensive dynamos there, plus being utilized in an energy line role. And if my numbers are correct, when KK was given his time in the top 6 during the Covid stretch, he had a 1.5PPG pace. KK had anything but an abysmal season, and he is ready for the 2C role. And while I will agree that a lot hangs in the balance with KK breaking out this season, you can’t go and say he had an abysmal season, just by looking at point totals. KK might not have lit the lamp a lot, but some of his underlying numbers were some of the best in the league.
