Greetings, friends. Let’s take some time today to talk about one of the most polarizing players on the 2018-19 Pittsburgh Penguins roster, a player that seems to get a longer leash than other players in comparable situations and tends to leave you with equal levels of optimism and frustration. You know the player I’m talking about — it is Dominik Simon.
Earlier this season we looked at his potential long-term upside, and given that we are nearly through his first entire full season we should take another look at his progress.
I get the sense, just from reading Twitter and talking to my own friends, that the fanbase has pretty much had enough of Simon and is teetering more to the frustration side of the spectrum than the optimism side.
