"can"

Learn English.

Playing on non playoff crappy teams (also health issues). Healthy + good team, he can easily hit close to 20 and well above 41

- AlfieisKing


Oh ffs you don't know he "can" do it when he hadn't actually done it.

And now you are moving the goal posts by throwing in health issues... and now changing it from 25 to close to 20. You should have led with that.

And for the record last season he played all 82 games and had a massive total of.... 14 goals.

Not hockey related but this really (frank)ing sucks. My cat just died. Saved her from an abandoned coal factory as a kitten. 15-16 years ago.

Farabee and Laughton CAN both be 50+ goal scorers! YaY this game is fun...

I mean if their linemate is McDavid and you punch in the cheat code for tiny players.

x-box, right?

It's like when Phil Kessel was a great 40-goal scorer for the Leafs. Well... pro-rated to 40 goals in 80 games maybe. Imagine if he played with Gretzky!

None of those pieces fit and the flyers would be stupid to trade for either of those guys.

They should be able to grab Carter Yakemchuk at 12th. I guess they probably would like an Zayne Parekh who is a step above Carter.

Is this the report of a 3 way suggesting Ottawa ends up with Ullmark, Debrusk and Kokecny plus the #12 pick? In return the Sens would be giving up Chychrun, Forsberg, and Joseph plus the #7 and #25.? Boston would get forsberg. Philly gets Chychrun and the 7th?

Wait, wut?

Bruins are trading Ulmark for a journey-man goaltender?

Why?

Ok.

Goals adjusted for 82 games

2019-20: 16
2020-21: 26
2021-22: 12 (lowest scoring team in NHL)
2022-23: 15 (traded to new team mid-way)
2023-24: 14

17-18 goals avg if healthy. Only 5-7 D-men did that this year

Boston gets #25, Joseph and Forsberg

Flyers get #7, Chychrun

Sens get #12, Ullmark, Kodechny and Debrusk

The Debrusk part of the deal sounds fanciful to me as he is a UFA and is going to walk to wherever he wants to go.

This 3 way deal would not be too popular with any fan base. Causes me to think maybe there is some substance behind it. But I do not understand the inclusion of DeBrusk in the proposal.

If the reports are true about Boston having the inside track in signing Lindholm than letting Debrusk walk is probably an essential stage of signing another mega contract.

I heard this exact deal yesterday.

The wonderful elephant in the room is Korpisalo.
None of it goes down without moving him and his deal out somehow. He has a 10 team NT and I'm not sure the owner wants to buy him out after one year.

The reason I feel this deal might go down......or some parts of it go down......TODAY is because the owner is pissed at Betman (Pinto/Dadinov). The tiny little commish hates trades announced on Stanley Cup game days.

doesn't make sense the flyers have Drysdale and York
- 2Real


No one is untouchable other than Michkov and Zavragin at this point. York, Foerester, Drysdale and maybe Bonk likely the next closest thing to being untouchable (can be had but must be an overpay). Other than that, everyone should be fair game for the right price.

i don't think they've given up on Drysdale, but aren't convinced he will last for the long haul. York will run one pp, and somebody else the 2nd - or rotate until someone rises or a deal is made.

I think they're implying that our PP woes are tied to our back end. Where as I think it's because we lack anykind of serious power forward. I'm content with our D personally and letting them develop. I'm more concerned with our upfront size.

I don't think they should give up on giving him opportunity there and trying to develop that part of his game but York is not good on the PP. Both Zamula and Sanheim are better.

Kessel was a better playmaker than he was finisher. PIT could have used him on the PP, but Sullivan will never take him back especially now.
