Freeman and his current struggles.

Life has been hard lately but I still need to do some points tasks. 

 

Julius Freeman thought this season would be the season the league would wake up and realize he is one of the best wingers in the game. There was a large amount of hype coming into the season but once the season started things have not gone on the right path for him. Vancouver tried some crazy things with its line up where they tried to make the first line the second line. The idea was that if our first line could face off against easier competition then they would get more points and attack more but after a few games that did not seem to be the case. Freeman hasn't been the same since last season, he has had a lot of things going on with his family and his housing situation, which might be the reason why he hasn't lived up to expectations. It has been painful to watch his games when he doesn't do so hot and when he simply isn't playing the way he should be. In terms of skill, he is a top 5 player in the league but based on his performance this season he will be lucky if he is top 20 at the end of this season. Maybe he will start to get hot later in the season we can only hope. But It is tough working hard and not getting rewarded for his play.
