Chuck Stewart had a decent year. He didn't put up many points but his role on the team as a shutdown defenceman meant that wasn't required from him. As a rookie, Chuck was picked to be one of the Assistant Captains, which was a surprise. He also averaged the third most ice time on the team (second amongst rookies). Has the second lowest giveaways and blocked shots. Despite the Kraken struggling this year, Chuck has the best +/- on the team. These stats come from him playing against the top players on each team. All this to say, I think Chuck did pretty well in his first year. I expect him to continue to excel into one of the best shutdown defenseman there is. Personal stats are less important to Chuck as he just wants to be on a winning team and to be a leader on that team.
A few moments of the season stand out to me. Chuck's first goal, which came in a game he got two goals in. The goals didn't last long though as he finished the season with 3. Another moment that stands out is in the playoffs, Chuck was called out for a struggling performance. The following game he was on the ice for 7 of 9 goals. Many haters say he's point production is a problem and going to keep him from going high in the coming draft. That's okay, scoring isn't his role on the team as he looks to improve and continue shutting down opponents. |
