I don’t like Peter’s skating style either but it’s mostly worked till now. I was a bit of an ankle skater. Look at Matt Tkachuk, not a real pretty stride and lumbers a bit. He gets there though. Or are you still glad we didn’t pick him? JT has good speed and power but he isn’t graceful at all. There’s only so many guys that have the perfect edges, pins and acceleration like McJesus, Nathan, Hughes, Barzal etc.
Peter was a fierce competitor all his career and he hit a rough patch- due to injury perhaps and or contract bullshit. I don’t like the Bambi legs myself but the guy is a good player and his points that come on the PP are right in line with the other top forwards. Weak take.
not sure
One thing I do know is the current administration has instilled a bit of juice back in the franchise after a boozer and his cronies damn near killed the team.
