S59 PT #4 All-Star Snub
|
![]() SHL GM Brennan Lee Mulligan Stan
If I’m being honest, I didn’t even realize the All Star teams had been announced really. Looking over the team, one inclusion seems particularly onerous, and that’s Axel Meszaros. So bad a player he is running off into retirement instead of further embarrassing himself on the ice, Meszaros has been a bust of the lofty expectations set for him almost a decade ago.
In his place, after far too much effort looking, I think Sven Yxskaft should have been included. He is comparable, if not better, than his teammate F-R Finn-Rhys in almost every category. More points (31 v. 28), near identical but better advanced stats (-0/5 GF/60 versus -0.8, slightly better Corsi and Fenwick), better +/-, and a +13 T-G ratio (Versus FRFR’s -6). Overall, the two are very comparable, so why not include Yxskaft? If not him, why not a favorite among the players, gritty mean old Jakob Hamr. Dude is hitting everything and throwing his body in front of pucks to help the young and confused Barracuda win a few games. Defensive defensemen are notoriously overlooked, and deserve their day and attention. |
