Ori report, quarter of the way into the season

[ROOKIE745 608]

The Titans have played their first quarter of the season, that being 18 games with your not good with math. The Helsinki Titans record is 3-14-1, yes that's right, just 3 wins in 18 games, the next closest team is London with 7 wins. However as tough as it may be to watch the team they are rebuilding, and S79 saw them start that process by drafting center Jonathan Ori with their only first round pick in that draft. The team however has five first round picks in the next two drafts, and seven second round picks. Needless to say GM Rayzor and AGM Hatter have a lot of work ahead of them. For the mean time though let's look at Ori's production.

 

Ori has produced five points to far in the season, four assists and one goal which was on the power play. For a rookie jumping into a team that's rebuilding and at the bottom of the standings we will say this isn't bad. He's playing second line minutes and is taking on a lot of responsibility for his first season. He has taken the second most faceoffs at 367 and has a win percentage of 44.96, which is second highest on the team. You would want that number to be above 50% but considering the situation and that he's a rookie we can say it's pretty remarkable. What has caught us a little off guard is Ori's Penalty minutes, he's fourth highest on the team at 31, some Ori did great in the VHL was not take penalties but it seems in the VHL he needs to find that sweet spot again, or perhaps this is part of his game now, or it could be tempers flaring from all the loosing. Regardless we will wait to see how this all progresses through the next few weeks.
