This is depressing to watch.
I know he is never going to be a 30 goal scorer again but it would be nice to see him get 15-20.

seems like he totally gave up as a player,
he cashed in his last big contract and just gives no fucks imo.
being lazy away from the puck is 1 thing but being lazy with the puck is frustrating to watch, so many 3on1 or 2on1 he single handedly killed :rofl:
i dont even see him scoring 15-20 anymore the way he plays, unless he plays with pettersson again and he banks on those ez goals he seemed to miss a ton.
he scored his last goal back in feb :rofl: at this rate virtanen has a higher chance of scoring 20g on a 3rd/4th line
Skating was never one of his main strengths but it's clear he's lost a full step and at the same time the league has gotten faster.
You can still see flashes of the above average hands and IQ that made him a legit 1st line player for several years but he just has never seemed engaged since he signed here.
You don't usually think of Swedes being the type to mail it in after cashing in but it's hard to avoid that feeling with Eriksson lol
