It’s surprising to me that Josh Jooris has played more NHL games in his career than Adam Cracknell.
Cracknell, who is 33 to Jooris’s 28, has 208 games compared to 213. Neither one scores much, and they’re both right-shooting winger/centres. It’s that handedness that got them their jobs on a Leafs team that has struggled to have a right-handed and a left-handed faceoff man on the fourth line and on the PK on a regular basis.
This isn’t of crushing importance, but it is a slight advantage, and there’s no reason not to have all four lines set up with one competent faceoff man for each side.
