Yes, this thread has absolutely nailed itLooking good tonight!
You know I never thought about this but its interesting -- he has good point skills (and could still play that as a forward), he can shoot, pass and stick handle, he can rush, and his experience as a D-man enables him to know how to muck in the corners. So why not try him as a forward? I honestly do not know, but I'm sure someone on this board could answer that in the nay or yay with more authority than me. I was but a failed goalie. Pretty bad, to be honest (unlike THE MORT!).Naive question, but I've wondered this about a few players over the years. If he has such good offensive skill and such poor defensive skill, then why isn't he a wing instead of a defenseman?
Isn't he a converted forward? Am I remembering that wrong? Could have sworn I read somewhere that Lohrei is a converted forward. Or I made that up in my head to justify just how horrible he is in his own zone.
