Look at recent trades of all-star players.

Very rarely is the return anything great.

You get first and 2nd Rd picks. That’s usually the ticket with a decent prospect or two.

You do realize Mika only has next season on his deal before becoming a UFA, and he has all of 3 points this year through 12 games?

They'd include Mika without thinking twice.

16 5 on 5 goals in 11 games

1 was with the goalie pulled
3 came in the flyer game

you remove those 4, it's 12 goals in 10 games

Good post 👍

Kinda points to system.

Sure olo's giving up the puck, but the whole team does.

Whatever fixes this, I'm good.

If they traded 9 tomorrow, I might shrug.

Zero shots in 23 minutes of play. You can't make this sh!t up.

Eichel is not even in the top 10 players in the league right now. Maybe not even in the top 15.
- ImThatGuy


Eichel and his contract, age and stardom are absolutely top 10.

Probably top 5.

True #1 centers are really hard to find
In their prime
Reasonable contract

These 10 games havent de- valued eichel too much

I completely agree, but the only guy really playing well offensively isn't "the problem". Most star's are not tough guy's.

It's crazy that olofsson get's the grief.

Wonder if their is a flaw in the 5 x 5 coaching?

Seems like the whole team is having a problem 5 x 5.
That's just off the top of my head.
How bad are we?
- Boss34


I haven't singled VO out, but I do consider him part of the core problem with this team. They are an easy group to play against.

It's never as bad as some here make it out to be after a loss.

Rusto and Samuelsson would be on there way to Buffalo right know and Miller and Irwin would be on waivers if Weaver was GM

maybe after 5 plus years of losing, he learned how to go through the motions


I never like putting the captain on a young player until he has proven something

Need some difficult to play against guys in the top half of the lineup. When we match up against teams that do, it doesn't go well.

The easy part is identifying the problem.

The much more difficult part is actually doing something about it as that isn't an easy problem to rectify.
