He still puts up.

What about Tavares and 23 for Krebs and Sabres 3rd.. wonder how desperate they are.

Or our 2nd

The cap hit is too crazy to be worth anything. Almost no one can take him, and he has to waive. Even the Sabres would have trouble with that full cap hit.

The same organization that saw Tage and mitts take 5 years to find their footing in the league are writing off Krebs quickly and can’t wrap their heads around the fact that what Benson did in the show at 18 year old last year was impressive.

Meier was also moving with no promise of extension. He also pulled the d-prospect the Devils had though.

I used the Fiala trade as my comp (Faber + 18 OA)

I don't recall, didn't Faber want out of LA?

Would have to bid adieu to all UFA’s and RFA’s sans UPL and Krebs.

Could keep Joker if you move Clifton but I think in this instance Joker is the odd man out.

seems like the moves they should have made last summer when they had the space instead of clifton,e johnson, robinson, jost, okposo and girgens

Tage Thompson after 223 games: 103 points

Casey Mittelstadt after 195 games: 80 points

Peyton Krebs after 215 games: 66 points

Yes, these three are exactly the same, Pegulaville, you're right. All three showed flashes of a scoring touch around 200 professional games.

Oh wait, only two of them. And Krebs isn't one.

Just keep talking out your ass. It makes the rest of us look that much better when you inevitably back yourself into a corner walking around an actual argument or point. You just keep saying you're right and no one listens... Without ever providing any kind of factual support to any of your arguments.

Tage didn’t play his 200th professional game till he was 24 and a half years old.

Krebs just turned 23 in January.

It’s also 2024, we can look much further than point totals to derive a players value.

Krebs also gets no PP time and was a 4C where Mitts was given every opportunity to succeed in top 6 minutes and PP time.

Just copying and posting point totals without going into TOI, QOC, QOT, xgf% and run down the list and thinking you “owned” someone is rich lol.

You can literally go back and see multiple posts of mine since before he signed his last contract saying if Girgensons didn't resign, he would end up in Pittsburgh. Not gonna argue over this lol not that big a deal

There's literally no difference between a 23 year old and a 24 year old. You are insufferable.

The comparison is 200 NHL games and what, 4+ professional seasons? Sorry but you're completely wrong in comparing Krebs to Tage and Mitts - Completely wrong.

You made a random post out of nowhere today "calling out" the people who are rightfully criticizing him. Before Tage's breakout year and before Mitts' breakout year, multiple people were getting behind them and anticipating a breakout season. No one is doing that for Krebs.

On top of that, you somehow managed to compare this argument to the Benson argument and it shows you're literally grabbing at anything to try and support your flimsy ass rhetoric, which none of us can figure exactly what it is because you talk in deflections and circles.

Peyton Krebs at 200 NHL games isn't even close to Tage and Mitts at 200 NHL games. He needs to put up 50+ points this season to even sniff that kind of a turnaround and I can't see him getting much more than 30.

I have said it numerous times, Krebs is the new Girgensons. Bet. I honestly hope I'm wrong. I really do. But he's stone-handed and his body can't keep up with his brain. If there's hockey in smarts there, he just isn't fast enough to utilize them in any meaningful way.

Stop trying to make fetch happen.

This is definitely true. You don't see the skill from krebs that you saw from mitts and tage. A fifty point season would come out of no where, imo. If you're going to keep him, let's just go all in on bottom 6 forward and call it a night.

Exactly. I wasn't on the Tage bandwagon, but I was cautiously optimistic at people's excitement over him that breakout year. I was one of the first on board the Mitts train and I hated to see him go, and that was with me being very critical of him his first few years. Something started to show in him even when the points didn't.

Krebs got his chance last year at the end of the season after Mitts and Okposo were traded and he looked even more lost playing with skilled players than he did playing with unskilled 4th liners. A 50-point season wouldn't just come out of nowhere; I would seriously wonder if he did PEDs.

Prove it.

Cause I was one of maybe two posters who thought Tage was even an NHL caliber player prior to the breakout. Even in my wildest dreams I thought he’d be a 20 goal 50 point guy at best and even I was wrong.

I held on to my belief that Mitts would grow into a 2C caliber role longer than most before throwing in the towel November/December of 2022. Taco held on slightly longer than I, and Sbroads was the last one standing and deserves his flowers.

Krebs’ career arc is eerily similar to the one Mitts had. Prior to January, 2023 Mitts playing himself out of the league until the light bulb turned on.

Krebs has 82 games to prove me right, or I’ll give you your flowers.
