Breakdown of Bern’s Future Stars

 

    Recently, in a fan590, there was a locker room brawl about who would be a first rounder and who would not be for the Bern Royals. Recently we met with our analyst and decided to break it down by the numbers at how the young players are performing

 

Chuck Goody:

 

 

    As a defenseman, Chuck Goody has a put up a large number of points for the Bern Royals. Currently, Goody is sitting with 19 goals 58 assists for a total of 77 points. However his production does not end there as he has a +20 ranking as well as over 100 hits. Not only has he registered over 100 hits but he has also blocked over 100 shots. On specialty teams Goody has been a monster. 19 out of his 77 points have come on the man advantage. He has been a force on both ends of the ice and a monster on the penalty kill as well. Based on a purely numbers standpoint, Goody should be a first round pick if not a top five pick.

 

Josh Merica:

 

 

    Sitting a bit lower down on the team’s total points is outspoken Josh Merica. Merica this season has amassed 19 goals and 26 assists for a total of 45 points. Just as physical as his teammates, Merica has crushed people a total of 100 times so far this season. However this is where he drops off in the numbers race. As a forward he is not a big shot blocker like most forwards. He has a total a dismal 8 shots blocked this season. He also has not been as strong as Goody on the power play totaling just 10 points on the man advantage. Although not as dominant on the power play, he has scored a goal on the penalty kill. Although his numbers are not as great, Merica could still be a first rounder based solely on performance as well his potential. His potential because he had a terrible beginning to the season but was able to pick it up (This is also known as Merica having 40 as his endurance in the sim for over a week)

 

MC Hammer:

 

 

    Now to analyze the man that threw the first punch, MC Hammer. Hammer has not been anywhere near a point per game with his 8 goals and 15 assists bringing him to a team low 23 points. However where he has been dreadful on offense he has brought it on the defensive side of the ice. Currently Hammer has more hits than both Merica and Goody. He also has been able to amass more shots blocked that most of his team, only being behing Goody and a few other players. Taking the same analysis as the other players, Hammer has been awful on the power play by only amassing a total of four points. Four points is half of the total shots that Daniel Merica has blocked. He also has not been able to stay out of the penalty box with a total of 47 penalty minutes which is more than most of his team. However he has had a recent change of how he has been training, focusing on individual aspects instead of his overall game. This could lead to a large increase in both shots blocked and points scored. Hopefully Hammer is able to improve and be able to be a star that he wants to be. With all of this in mind, Hammer is not a first round pick currently. However he could sneak into the first round if his new found training change improves his numbers and make him a worthwhile player to grab.
