Yeah, Kuikka is a big "confidence" player. When Rhian moved her around to the left side, or took her off completely for Beckie to play right wingback (big nope), she suffered for multiple games and looked really bad. Made costly mistakes. Didn't truly come back until leading into the playoffs....

I feel like Rocky is similar. She's streaky....and as soon as you cut that momentum, it takes her a long time to reset. Rocky was a beast at the end of last season, and she's been totally unused but for garbage minutes because coach needs to get Sinc on the field still...no doubt she's in her head about that. Now when she's in...she just looks nervous and sloppy.
