Jack can't score 5v5, either.

Should we drop him to line 3?

Jack has scored 5v5 on line 1. Olofson has not....

Know we're comparing Jack to Olofsson. I am as pissed as anyone about Jack, but there's a huge difference there.

If I had to pick a 3rd favorite attribute, it's that Sam plays almost identically to Pominville but he's more likeable because he has a better personality

Olo is going to be 26, he is who he is at this point.
To expect some drastic increases 5 on 5 production is not something that should be expected IMO.

The issue is if hes not playing with Eichel, or a top center, he will be even more useless 5 on 5.

I've never seen anything like this.

Do you hide him on a 3rd line and just deploy during PP?

Half of VO's goals came 5v5 last year, so yeah, he has scored at even strength.

Again, if the top players are actually doing their jobs, we're winning more, and no one bats an eyelash about VO.

Agree, don't really have a problem with Olofsson just needs to pick it up 5on5, and he's gotten better there, just need those shots to go in and not hit goalposts.

I went back and looked at the TOI last night and the distribution of forward minutes is interesting. The range of minutes goes between 12:15 (Asplund) - 18:19 (Olofsson)

Essentially the range of low 3rd line to high 2nd line, cutting out 1st and 4th line TOI

I'd love to see how many posts this team has hit this year. We have got to be leading the league.

Funny you should say that, Buff has 4 of the top 10 players with goal posts hit this year. Jack, Rhino, Hall, and Olofsson are all top 10 in that category.

Among 11 eligible forwards who have played 500+ minutes for the Sabres since the start of last season

Victor Olofsson is dead last in 5 on 5 goals per 60 at .37

11th out of 11

He is being beat out by Johan Larsson

It’s really stupid he’s getting L1 minutes

honest question...knowing his 5v5 struggles and impressive pp acumen, what would be acceptable goal numbers for him: total goals= 5v5g+ppg

this is a question for the group

Olofsson had 6 5v5 goals last year and 8 at even strength, out of the 20 goals overall that he scored.
