Quoting: STLBlues17
He is one of the softest players I’ve ever seen in front of the net, does not break up plays in transition or on the cycle, and his main skill of skating the puck through the NZ never leads to any sort of offense. He’s a number 6 on a functioning squad.
Would have agreed with all of that last season. Not this season. He plays like the 5th hardest minutes in the entire league, no PP time and 40% D zone starts. He has more 5v5 points this season than: Petro, Carlson, Nurse, Gustafsson, Chych, Burns, Roy, Durzi, Sanderson, Lindholm, Matheson, Chabot, Jones, Walman, Severson, Ekblad, Montour, etc etc etc. And most of those guys play 2nd pairing. He's also tied for 31st in primary 5v5 assists. Leddy has also already surpassed his career high in blocks and might also reach his takeaways career best.
I totally understand it, but I think you're holding a grudge there, buddy.
