Power also only played 5 games in Feb, of like 11? So not to Shabby. Is by far better than every D-man we have not named Dahlin or Byram

I don't get being picky with time periods here.

xGF (5v5)
Dahlin 74.6
Power 74.4
Skinner 60.3
Tage 57.9

What I hate is no changes on D. There is no logical 2nd pair for a 3rd straight year.

Are you at all disappointed that Kulich, Ostlund, Rosen, and Helenius are all here and there's only a viable path to the NHL in the next year for 1 or 2? Happy with Savoie for a 3C, after drafting all those guys?

This is still a prospect group that requires trades. Kev's had assets for years, just hasn't been able to make moves. Can't give him a pass every year, imo.

- Lunaion


They have no more high-end talent coming through the prospects, and they don't have enough truly high-end talent in the Forward group. D and G should be relatively ok with more development time.

Their F prospects are all middle six. I've been calling for a trade package to address that. It can anddoes happen, but our GM doesn't have the skills to make and close those kind of deals.

Savoie is likely to be a 3RW on a contender and they got a decent 3C for him to fill a position of need now. People piss and moan about this trade 2hich is again much ado about nothing...and I was excited to see him develop.

No, they can't use all their prospects, so yes I displeased with that as I believe a creative GM could put together a strong package to acquire a very, very good player.

They make more sense but the depth just isn't there

If its Zucker McLeod Greenway on the 3rd line they will struggle when the top 6 gets cold. I dont see much interchangeability either unless zucker has a renaissance year

That's meant to be their go-to defensive line. I think it will do a good job at that.

If you were calling for a trade package, shouldn't that trade bother you?

How so?
A 3rd line RW for a needed 3rd line center.

Adams has plenty of assets remaining to create a very good package.
They need to find a team aging out that wants to kick start their rebuild is is willing to sacrifice right now to get several pieces for 3 years from now.
Tampa, NYI, Ottawa, Red Wings are potentially that.

Was Komarov that good yesterday? Nice pass into Rosen's wheelhouse on the tying goal, but that stat indicates he was the best on ice by far.

Helenius had a hell of a game. Finally saw a glimmer of the talent.

What a goal by Ostlund. Reminiscent of Pommer on Emery.

What you think of the kids?

*Tiny sample alert*

I'm going to really enjoy watching Rochester again this year. I'm disappointed Mersch isn't still there, I liked how he led that team.

I need to see more out of Rosen. He should be a standout almost every game.

Love watching Wahlberg, Kom, Novi, Ostlund (sick ass goal) and I'd like to see how Tullio can add a different edge to that team. If Kulich goes back it'll be that much more fun. Watch out for Konsta once he gets a hold of the AHL. And he will.

Hey!,
I resemble that remark.

Doing great. High and dry, tight and secure...couldn't ask for better.
Even the power stayed on...Bonus round!

A #9 should be a big asset, if you're trying to make trade package.

It's getting really hard to see where Rosen fits. Wahlberg is on the verge of catching him and fits much better.
