Worst Player In The NHL So Far This Year

One dubious distinction I like to keep track of is the worst player in the NHL who is still getting playing time. Last year I gave that "honor" to Steven Goertzen of the Columbus Blue Jackets a man who put up zero points with a -17 +/- rating in 39 games at right wing. This upset an F.D. Goertzen (a relative?) who made a defensive comment. Goertzen is back in the AHL this year where he better belongs (his 10 points in 32 games there last year were not too impressive). Goertzen was supposed to be an "energy guy" but whenever I watched Columbus, he just looked hopelessly overmatched.

In general, the player who is playing the worst with a regular shift is a name player having a horrible year. Rarely does a Stephen Goertzen get as long a look as he got last year without some production.

So far this year, the worst player has bewen Petr Nedved of the Philadelphia Flyers. He is off to an awful start. After a horrid game where Buffalo beat his Flyers 9-1 he now is a -7 with no points in 6 games. Nedved is too good a player to play this badly. He is a streaky scorer who is often defensively disinterested. That can lead to stretches like this one where he really looks awful and is not worth a spot in the NHL.

Petr Nedved has not impressed Flyer management who have waived him today. They claim they intend to send him to the minors. Given that he is 34 years old, if he spends the rest of the season in the AHL it could be the end of the line for him.

Here is TSN's story about Nedved's waiving.

Comments:
Derian Hatcher would get my vote.
With Nedved they tried to make him into a defensive checking center, something that he is not. The Flyers have plenty of decent young centers to take the job. Now if they could just waive Hatcher.
 
Goertzen - I argued this before and got some flack from BJs fans. Goertzen, from the many times I saw him in the WHL, and from his stats, was just an AVERAGE WHL player. He played 2nd/3rd line for the Thunderbirds and never produced much of anything. He's a fairly good skater, but he was never a defensive whiz and I was utterly shocked at just how much NHL time he got and at such a young age. There are so many more talented CHL players that never make it as far as Goertzen, which makes it all the more boggling.
 
I Love watching him scrap but Wade Belak is just not a great player. But he probably would put up better stats if he was placed on a better role!
