Franzen was a beast for a few years.

We should take the goalie

Yup. Discord is cool.

I MADE this place's history. So yes, you are missing something.

The people at this place are fantastic, but the mobile experience is atrocious. Half the time one is about to type or hit a button, strategically placed pop ups get in the way and irritate the user. Then the site goes down for days at a time. I get it. Matt makes money from this page, but has other priorities now. I really do get it. What I dont understand is why he wont let some of the long time users help him keep the site 1) up and running, and 2) user friendly. Those of us over at the discord havent left this place. We just want to see it taken care of.

How does 9-10 goals in 14 more games mean this season got cancelled?

Gonna be Seider

All of this AND: You kind of have to bust or show signs of busting before you're a bust! By this age, Fedorov, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Mantha, and Larkin did not have as many GP or Points in the NHL. Come at me with "But Yzerman" did.

He's tenacious.

Hey - man you talkin back to me? TAKE HIM OUT

I like it, but I think the good play is to keep Howard around 2 more years and give him the starts. Let him get torched and then bring Larson/Petruzzelli in for cleanup. After the opponent has a 4-5 goal lead, they usually don't press to make it a 9 goal lead. That's good for confidence for a young guy. Lets him see the speed of the game, but not face the ultra aggressive net drives that good goalies need to get used to stopping. If Howard will take 2 years, 3 million per to be our scapegoat, sign him up. If not, let him go and move onto Murray.

One thing that leads me to believe Zadina will get better is his lower body. Dude is as brickhouse waste down. Thats a good sign.

Im actually ok with what you just said. But yes, he will not be the highest scoring player in the league. If you want to say his ceiling is top line winger, i think you could make a convincing argument.

For a guy that is struggling to make the nhl, the ceiling is NOT the Art Ross Trophy Winner position. It IS top 6 winger scoring 50-70 pts, aka Tatar. Your smug know it all attitude is rearing its ugly head again. And like your trade proposals, your arguments are looking ridiculous. Winnepeg probably wont do Laine for Mantha, Pittsburgh probably wont give us Letang for Cholowski, and Rasmussen's ceiling = Eric Lindros. Why even say anything if everything that you are gonna say is of the "no sh$t, Sherlock" variety?

Zadina ceiling = kucherov? That's the most absurd thing i've read here yet. He is struggling to make the NHL right now.
