Players Top 50: #39 Sergio Perkovic

Since the 2019 postseason, Sergio Perkovic has shot 13-for-27 (48.1%) from 2-point range. That’s 0.96 points per shot.
Prior to this summer, most of those 2-point attempts came in transition or on the powerplay. The Redwoods created more settled 2-point attempts for Perkovic this year -- with Rob Pannell quarterbacking the offense from below GLE.
Charlie Bertrand and Ryder Garnsey both deserve gravity assists for these cuts. When they can occupy more than one defender inside, that Pannell-to-Perkovic skip lane is open. pic.twitter.com/X96f34XCge

Perkovic reprised his role as a two-way midfielder in Minnesota when Kevin Unterstein left the game early due to injury. He can take faceoff wings -- especially when TD Ierlan is winning everything to himself. Between the 15-yard arc and the 100-yard field, the PLL rules are tailored to Perkovic’s game.
