Randall Flagg Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Understand and agree to the first chunk. Pastrnak is not the best player from the 2014 draft class. Who's better? 25th selection: 123 points in 172 games, 0.72 points per game, crummy old centers ;) 3rd selection: 137 points in 191 games, 0.72 points per game, McDavid I guess it's up for contention between those two, right? Ehlers and Nylander look excellent too. Ekblad's first 2 seasons were great and he fell apart once he was given first pair responsibilities, and has the nagging concussions.

LGR4GM Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I don't think their centers are crummy here today, I think they will become less good in the near future. But I don't think Pastrnak is the best player from 2014. Maybe at the end of next season I will but right now, he's in the conversation but not quite there.

dudacek Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 (edited) Great article on Guerin. Sounds like a leader. But what I liked best is the way he related to Crosby, who, IMO, has a lot in common with Jack. http://www.pittsburghmagazine.com/Pittsburgh-Magazine/December-2015/Bill-Guerin-on-Hockey-Family-The-Stanley-Cup-Crosby/ Edited April 27, 2017 by dudacek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 I decided to cast my vote for Brisebois. I'd be completely okay with that. Tampa is a sharp, progressive front office.

Randall Flagg Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 That doesn't look great. "Hey Chris, are you interested in maybe running our team?" "Uhhh I don't think I'm ready for that yet" Didn't they ask PLF the same way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily he played well here and lived with the situation but when it came time to get to pick for himself he was always as good as gone. This is so inaccurate. Completely ignores facts that he agreed to contract with Buffalo, that the Rangers only approached him after Nylander left for Washington and that he gave his soul to this team and only inept management cost them Drury and Briere.
