That contract won't age well

We'll see.

He's 25 years old, just entering his prime.

He's at 11.6 this coming season for the first time. It's only fair to hold him to that standard then.

At 7.35 he over delivered.

100%. However the fanboys will always coddle him.

He needs to become more passionate and play to his abilities in high stakes games.

It would be nice to see Hughes get back to back Norris trophies as well.

Preferably a Tyson Barrie type, you know, someone as soft as butter, to help the defense corps match the forward group in softness.

At 11.6 per season, he should be the catalyst, but you go ahead and ķeep creaming in your pants over this player.

That contract will age beautifully. In three years 11.6 million will be a second tier contract, in six it’ll be a third tier contract…the kid will be producing 85-95 points a year. Allvin is a genius and may go down as the best GM this team has ever had.

Depends on what he gets for Pouty.

I imagine he could get a boatload for him, but you know that’s never happening.

If he doesn't live up to his contract he'll be bought out and win a cup in FLA the next year.

When did Joe Walsh start coaching German Women's soccer?

He wasn't a factor in the playoffs, injury or whatever. If he's on his game he's a game changer. The market/press will be all over next season if this continues. Should be interesting. They will need him to step up if they want to get past EDM.

If he was on his game they would have made it past Edmonton.

He's young, he's always been driven at an elite level, I'm sure he's gonna be fine. People love to complain about the hysterics of the Vancouver media but do the exact same shit

There is no doubt he is a very good player, he needs to be more consistent throughout a full season and playoffs.

Meh. Don't think that's his makeup to display it like your Millers or Keslers. Sedins were questioned on that type of stuff too. Just think his is much more internalized.

Pretty hard to make it this far without passion.
