all the old school hard nosed coaches are getting pushed out of the game, replaced by soft ego-stroking pacifists... which makes sense because that's where the game is heading, unfortunately

Bring in Gallant and move RK to president of hockey ops.

What makes no sense is paying a guy 7-8m/yr because he puts up 65pts next to Eichel. How many points would he have playing with Johansson? 45-50 at most? That's what I would base his contract on. Eichel is on pace for 110 points, Reinhart only on pace for just better than half that, playing on the same line just isn't good enough. IF he's asking for +6m then I'm looking to move him. A true sniper would put up 50g on Eichels wing... and thats what playoff teams have. Eichel needs his Mogilny. Do better, don't settle.

I loved that Tkachuk / Kassian sequence. That's how hockey used to be played, with emotion and guys genuinely not liking eachother hitting one and other purely to intimidate and flaunt their machismo. Boy that hockey was fun to watch... and play!

There's more to being a solid hockey player than putting up passenger points on line with a top 3 center in the universe. Is 68 points good? Yeah it is. You know what's better? 80, 90, 100 points. Don't settle.
