[JFresh] Mark Friedman, signé 1×0,8 M$ par VAN, est un défenseur de profondeur révolutionnaire qui a infligé des pénalités mineures au taux le plus élevé de tous les défenseurs au cours de chacune des trois dernières saisons. En dehors de cela, il s’en sort plutôt bien dans les minutes de profondeur douce.

   Everything Allvin and Rutherford have done and are continuing to do is confidence inspiring.

   This guy is insane… at drawing penalties

   1.94 minor penalties drawn per 60 over the last 3 seasons, next best is 0.89

   Also great he costs the same as Juulsen

   Well at least he admits the model is broken on this. Highly doubt Friedman is anywhere near that valuable

   Just watched Moneyball the other day… I wonder how much of that kinda model is used for the management group

   Pretty much everything you want from a depth 7/8D. He’s competent enough, good locker room guy, and surprisingly versatile (played games as LD, RD and forward last year)

   He doesn’t bring enough upside to the table to want him as a full-time roster player but he’s perfect to fill in for injuries

   Drawing penalties in the minors is a success metric as reliable as the sunrise.

   Marquee Signing

   More ex-penguins on the Canucks, next one Jack Guentzel and maybe Geno ?

   If we’re going all out on Guentzel, then these are the types of signings (ie. Friedman) that will push us over the top.

    I honestly thought he was good as a depth piece last season.

    With how many penalties he draws, Friedman is the real D-Petey.

    Did he get hurt last year or did we not play him a lot because we had better options?

    Unfortunately the JFresh card for Hronek isn’t as rosy, painting a decline over his previous years. Hopefully the model is just attributing too much to Hughes and not enough to Hronek.

    I have liked every game he’s played, dude makes no mistakes

    Makes total sense. He works as a depth defender. And the contract has no risk. If we stop playing him, we can walk away.

    So basically if we have 5 marks we will be on the powerplay 24/7?

    Wasn’t he benched because of fitness reasons?
