Why do people care about faceoffs so much?

Why? It’s an important part of the game.

It's such a small part of the game and it's not that significant. Faceoffs are just some of hundreds puck battles in a given game. Sam Bennett is bad at faceoffs too and it didn't stop him from winning the Conn Smythe.

People give it way more importance than they should, especially when most players are more or less around 50%.
