If the Columbus Blue Jackets want Alexander Wennberg‘s long term contract to be worth it, they’ll need him to continue developing despite the fact that he’s been in the NHL for nearly five years already.
The most common argument for Wennberg is that he needs to shoot more, which would certainly help him. If Wennberg were to shoot, not only would he score more goals as a result, he would also draw pressure from the defense off of his linemates allowing him to use his playmaking ability more successfully.
In short, not only would shooting more increase Wennberg’s goals it would also increase his assist numbers as well.
