Dobber Darling Nils Lundqvist - Hit or Miss?
Here is what the guide had to say about Nils prior to this season:
Dobber’s Lowdown on: Nils Lundkvist – As many of you know, I’m not one to bail on my opinion of a player when it
was so high to begin with. In Sweden, Lundkvist was an elite-level talent at a very young age. He just turned 23, and his
metrics were pretty good. His usage waned as the season wore on and he didn’t get played at all in the postseason. But
neither did hundreds of other 22-year-old prospect defensemen. He’s still ahead of the curve. Long term, he is still
considered the right-shot option to pair with Heiskanen, and part of his underwhelming season was due to being paired
with the declining Suter. Lundkvist’s production is still a couple of years away so for now, all we should be hoping for is
better usage, spurts of great play, and an overall improvement for 2023-24
So, we are seeing an overall improvement albeit pretty minimal and I don't like all the healthy scratches and losing time and opportunity to Thomas Harley. Are we seeing enough, or are we losing faith? Honestly, I'm leaning towards the latter. This guy either scores big time or he is of no value whatsoever in a multi cat league and I'm having serious doubts about him evolving into a fantasy relevant offensive defenseman. That said, perhaps I'm not being patient enough. I'm looking at him as a potential drop in a keep 15 going into next year maybe the forum changes my mind, or not (:
