Lardis remains pointless despite increased point-per-minute pace, suggesting potential but not yet offensive impact. His assists show a glimmer of activity, but the 0% shot rate indicates he's not yet finding the back of the net.
Steady around 31 lately — hotter than 62% of forwards, against an average forward at 27.

Nick Lardis is an opportunistic scorer, with his career seven goals to five assists hinting at a player who relishes finishing plays rather than solely setting them up. At 5'11", 165 lbs, he's not a physical force, but a forward whose value comes from finding soft spots and converting chances even in his limited minutes. Watch for those quick, decisive offensive strikes whenever the puck finds his stick in dangerous areas.
