I think Schroeder has been taking some........another great reason to keep him up.
Ah yes but Manni is so far ahead it's scary. Some of the f/o stats are
skewed in that a guy could take only 9 faceoffs win 6 and be at
66.6%. Like usual with stats it's over the long haul that counts.
Daniel Sedin = 75% -takes them when his brother is kicked out.
Malhotra = 65.3% -full time faceoff man.
Henrik Sedin = 53.9%
Lapierre = 50% -you surprised? I was.
Ebbett = 45.4%
Burrows = 44.4%
Schroeder = 40.4%
You guys who watch all the Canucks' games must have noticed
Manni has a blind spot to his left. At the speed of the game today
you don't have time to turn your head to see to your left or right.
You NEED good peripheral vision now.
Everything I have ever read or heard says Malhotra is a great guy!
Damn sad if his career is over.
