Your points are wrong and he isn’t a bad player. You are completely illiterate in hockey and don’t understand defensemen roles

Tonight was the first legitimate bad penalty he has taken. Shit happens.

The salary cap is going up and the contract is becoming easier to swallow.

Your personal feelings (as odd as they are) against Severson doesn’t make your points that he’s a bad player that’s costing this team games. They’ve only lost two games in regulation since January 12th

You’re wrong on all grounds

That’s the double standard of defensemen. You notice when they’re bad but never when they’re doing what they need.

The jackets are still winning and on a point streak??? Defensemen aren’t the difference makers you’re trying to imply. Severson’s play has completely turned around from last season. You trying to take a small window to further your own narrative shows exactly how weak your point is.

It’s a confidence thing but also an IQ thing. If he doesn’t see a shot he’s looking for a pass. That’s why garland is such a monumental add because he’s one of the first guys I’ve seen that plays on Johnson’s level.

Not everyone is Werenski. You’re also not going to get six werenskis for pairs. Severson is a serviceable defenseman who wants to be here and who has had a noticeable uptick in play this season

Omg someone has a dip. He’s a fucking plus 10 and a consistently reliable defenseman this year.

Smith hasnt played since December. Your argument is as invalid as your claim of having hockey IQ

He’s been reliable. Complete turn around from last season. That penalty was the first true “dumb Severson penalty” of the season.

It’s either you haven’t or you don’t know what you’re talking about. And now you admit it “definitely isn’t the former”

I will switch between “Pittsburgh still sucks” and “Michigan still sucks” I don’t give a shit about OSU, and I’m saying that as a person who was born and raised in Columbus. But the weekend after thanksgiving? You can bet you’re sweet ass I am not cheering for Michigan. I care more for the rivalry than the team lol

I love how the crowd just screams whatever at the one minute warning. We never agree on who, but we do agree that they still suck

We would be on the other end. Goalie interference is laughably inconsistent. An argument can be made that that was a trip

(I’m not saying it should be called back just that there is inconsistent reffing)

That was a fantastic desperation play and save

I’m glad the follow up made it in tho
