THE RED WINGS HAVE STRUCK GOLD: SEIDER & EDVINSSON ARE DOMINATING THE LEAGUE

THE RED WINGS HAVE STRUCK GOLD: SEIDER & EDVINSSON ARE DOMINATING THE LEAGUE

Today we are talking about a couple of studs, big European machines out there on the ice for the Detroit Red Wings because man oh man, there’s a pretty good conversation to have about Moret Cider and Simone Edmonson. Now, just to give the rundown here, I feel like it’s only fair to fully acknowledge that what these guys are doing out there on the ice is exactly what we had hoped for when both of them were Red Wings prospects. Cider back in 2019, admittedly quite the surprise of a draft pick at sixth overall, and Simone Edmonson, who was taken in 2021, also at sixth overall. Take a look at that. Eh, the Two Towers, sixth overall by the Red Wings in seasons two years apart. When Simone Edmonson was drafted by CVY, I think a lot of fans had hoped long-term these two would be the pair together. And especially for Mo Cider, the season that he came into the NHL with when he ended up winning the Calder Trophy and he had all these accolades and he was super good right off the bat. It got a lot of fans excited for the long-term potential of him alongside of Simone and Edmonson. Two guys that are huge, two guys that have quite long reach and some pretty good defensive skill. But guess what, folks? Turns out we don’t even need to wait any longer because right now these guys are doing exactly what we had hoped. This was posted by uh okay, the watermark on the top of the image is the wing wield pod. So, shout out over to those guys. But this was posted onto the Detroit Red Wings subreddit as well. Take a look at this. Morett Cider and Simone Edmonson are among the best defensive pairs in the entire National Hockey League right now. Cider has especially been getting buzz about Norris votes. Do you think he’ll earn recognition leaguewide this season? Now, the description goes out there and says, “Out of 62 defense pairs that have played 170 plus minutes together in the NHL this season, Edinson and Cider rank number one with a 61.1 expected goals percentage. When you swipe to view, you will see the list here on moneypuck.com. you know, it’s a little small. So, let’s just go out there and pop it up ourselves here. We’ll go over to players and uh Okay, wait, no, it’s not players. It is on lines. That’s what it is. We will go to defensive pairs only and we will take a look at the minimized time of 170 minutes together. You can see that when it comes to expected goals percentage, Edinson Snider is number one in the NHL, followed up by Lindel Heiskin, Gaver, Fox, Chitrin, Roy, Ecman, Larson, Riley, Tabes, Mar Schmidt, Marino, and everybody else underneath. Now, what exactly does expected goals for percentage mean? Well, it essentially means that the majority of the expected goals that occur on the ice when these guys are out there are in the Red Wings favor. 61.1% of the expected goals that happen on the ice when they’re there are for the Detroit Red Wings. And that ratio is the highest at 61.1% versus every other D pairing in the National Hockey League. Going over to the bottom here, take a look at the piss poor pairing of Elias Patterson and Tyler Meyers. Elias Marcus, I’m not sure. It doesn’t differentiate, but they have an expected goals percentage of 38.1, which means that when it comes to expected goals that occur on the ice when these guys are out there, only 38% of them are Vancouver’s. 62% of the expected goals that occur when these guys are out there on the ice belong to the opponent. So Edinson Insider, their play is allowing the Red Wings to significantly outched here. Hey, Cider has been getting buzz about the Norris. Do you think that’s actually possible for him to get that recognition leaguewide? And I think the common consensus is probably no. The Norris is a points race and also a Kale Mar. You got to beat him out. And he’s been on the best team in the league. Sucks cuz Mo Cider plays some hard ass minutes all the time and he is finally getting some credit this year. Yep. The only way Cider gets real recognition for the Norris is if he gets 60 plus points. I think Mar is on pace for like 75. Cider doesn’t need to match or beat that, but he needs to be close. more than 10 points away is probably not close enough. And uh yeah, no, that’s actually inaccurate. He’s on pace for about 100 points that Kale Mar is. So yeah, Cider would probably need to touch about 80 points, which is not going to happen, unfortunately. And you know, to be fair, that’s not a bad thing. He’s gone out there with a 62point pace so far on 82 games for a season, and that’s really strong. He’s got 21 points in 28 games right now. This will be the most productive season of his NHL career. If he continues on this pace, he’ll finally eclipse that 50 point mark again. And if he can get 10 goals this season like he is on pace of doing, then I think that’d be awesome for Moider. But again, if you want to go out there and talk about the Norris, hey, guess what? Kale Mar has 33 points right now. I don’t care if Moid plays the best defensive hockey ever. He doesn’t allow a single gosh darn goal when he is on the ice for the rest of the year. If he doesn’t hit 80 points and Kale Mar is going to easily do that this season, Moider doesn’t have a chance at the Norris. Like that’s just how the award is voted for. It really is a point production award. And if you take a look at some of the closer races, like, okay, if there are two guys that are neck andneck in points, then you’ll start to get into other factors, but for the most part, if somebody runs away with the point lead, they’ll end up getting the Norris pretty reasonably. And Kale Mar is going to be that guy this year. Moider, as productive as he is, is not close to touching what Kale is doing in terms of the offensive side of the game. And that does seem to be the primary focus that voters tend to go for when it comes to evaluating who deserves the Norris. And admittedly, we should not be surprised about that. This is the way the NHL has trended towards when it comes to guys like Macar winning multiple Norrises, Adam Fox winning, Evan Bousard being in the conversation, Quinn Hughes winning, Zacharinsky being nominated. You have all these versatile, flashy, offensively skilled guys that may not necessarily be as good as Cider defensively. I mean, literally Macar, Heiskin, and Fox, they are here with their pairings near the top of the list, too. It’s just good that Cider is number one, though, right? Right. So, even though this is the way that the Norris is voted for, that’s not to say that Cider’s not going to get votes. Oh, no. He’ll probably get a few votes, even maybe even second or third place votes. Maybe one or two riders goes out there and even votes for him as number one. But Kale Marin, the impact he has is just too strong. Even though Mossider and Edson have been so good together that they are literally the best pairing in the National Hockey League right now. So, part positive, part negative. You can let me know your thoughts in the comments. How do you feel about this update in regards to Cider and Mo? Cider and Mo. Nah, Cider and Edinson, excuse me. Mo and Ed, you can say. How do you feel about Moider potentially being in the conversation for the Norris Trophy? And do you think he’ll be a finalist? Let me know your thoughts in the comment section below. I hope you enjoyed this V9 and bye.
