I do think it’s worth pointing out that among the regular Caps forwards who played under Laviolette, Kuznetsov had the worst xGF% and HDCF%… Maybe he’s just [not a good player anymore](https://content.invisioncic.com/Mnhlcanucks/monthly_2023_07/image.png.b69707e6cf7097b96401bb27a230cdad.png) and didn’t like that Lavy was trying to make him work harder instead of doing so much blow.
Having said that, I am a *little* worried that Panarin might have a similar reaction. I really hope Bread is serious when he says he wants to focus on hockey and is ready to just put his head down and get to work. Because if not…

Yeah I definitely care about what coke-head Kuznetsov has to say. It’s probably a good thing he didn’t like Laviolette. Dude’s one of the laziest players in the league.
Not to say you posting this was a bad thing, btw.
Washington has been trying to trade Kuznetsov for years and still are. No one else wants him. I don’t think that’s a thing to be concerned about the head coach over
Hopefully bread takes this season seriously because a lot of our important games last year i felt like he was pretty invisible most of the time
It’s going to be interesting. I’m thinking we are going to end up seeing an along-the-boards physical game similar to gallant, but with a different Neutral Zone look that may be able to open the game up at times.
Those times I think are where our creative Euro players can shine.
Also fuck kuzy
