he isn't in every sense. don't let the lack of offense distract you.

He's top 4 in every non-offensive metric
- TheSabresTaco

It has nothing to do with offense.

It has to do with his sometimes spotty passing, and his overall lack of consistent availability.

not according to the numbers. He's more than capable playing against top 6 comp.

you are up a goal

you win, in the playoffs
you drop the game, you are out

Captain Ras, but there's more than 2 here. He knows that.

I had him as number 1

I am asking who number 2 is?

His availability has nothing to do with his ability. I'd listen to a celery argument based on availability for sure. There's some error in his game. But the numbers are the numbers, and he holds the line playing top 4 minutes.

In what way? I think you have to say Power.

Bad thing is Joker might be the more stable D man for the 4mill with Samuelsson's history
- Buff36

They have to find a way to:
- keep him healthy for sure.
- up his female dog quotient and player meaner.. no one should be in their feet in front of the net when he is on the ice, nor should they come out of the corner with the puck.

Good question. So it's all defense.

Dahlin, Samuelsson, Tuch, Cozens and Greenway. I'm assuming it's 6 on 5.

fascinating to me that joker's SPAR/60 is lower than Clifton's.

that would be my group as well

maybe krebs in and greenway out but no doubt on the other 4

I was about to add Krebs as well. Interestingly enough, he has horrible numbers on the PK but great numbers in ES on defense.

I don't recall them using Krebs too often on PK, but when they didn't start flopping him around between defensive and offensive roles, he was pretty solid in his fourth line role. Think he had a bad start to the season but he balanced out well.

UPL - 4 years, $5.2M per
Jokiharju - 3 years, $4M per

Martin Necas - 8 years, $8.8M per 😬😬😬

Holy overpay for Pysyk Plus

Byram sucks ass.

More stable in terms of being consistently available for games, yes, but in terms of play style the team needs, I'd say no, and I think you agree.
- kingcong39

Yes, but availability is the best ability for 4.25mill. I like Samuelsson, but I would trade him in a Second. There's too many Dman available to not upgrade from either of them.

Joker reminds me of a shorter version of Tallinder

Lindy liked to lean on Hank

Well as long as it gets Adams Moving in the right Direction for this Team! So be it.

Konecny, Lindgren and Lyckasen must sign by June 1. Doesn't look like there's any interest in the three.

I did like that Lindgren, thought the kid looked good in those rookie camp scrimmages...probably going to become the next Makar wherever he lands, its funny how it works out that way with an organization thought to be excellent at drafting, evaluating amateurs.

They have to many to properly evaluate, that's why he should have traded some Futures for the know because we have a lot of supposed Futures coming

he was horrible on Ottawa. Better in Detroit.

Fun fact. Jeff Skinner provided twice the positive impact last season as Debrincat did.
