Barzal is BACK!
Just a quick post to acknowledge how excited I am to see Barzal unleashed under a new coach. After leading the team in scoring with 85 points in 2017/18 (just ahead of Tavares), he continued to lead the team in scoring each of the next 4 seasons, including this year. But under Trotz, the system hasn't been there for Barzal to thrive, and the numbers speak for themselves. He had a tough year, and a number of people have advised me that it may be time to drop him in my keeper league. But now I can't wait to see what he can do in a new system. Yeah baby!
In all seriousness, I think Trotz is a good coach and an experienced hockey guy. I wish him nothing but the best, and am pretty sure he will employed again soon. Just hopefully not as the head coach for any of the players on my fantasy team.
