krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted October 9, 2018 11 hours ago, Jonas Mahonas said: No way Mantha plays over Zadina. And he might not even be top 6 material after another couple drafts. Try harder Jonas... No way Mantha isn't a top 6 forward after another couple drafts... I'll bet anything on that. You already owe me for saying that Sambrook would be better than Cholowski... LOL Having Mantha "over Zadina" doesn't necessarily mean he is the better player (although he could be). Like @Neomaxizoomdweebie mentioned yesterday... 15 hours ago, Neomaxizoomdweebie said: Agreed. You don't just give out ice time based on point totals. Sometimes lesser players work better with certain skill guys. When skill guys time goes up, his linemates' time goes up. You don't slot your forwards 1-12 based on who is your first thru 12th best F. That reminds of the old NHL videos games, when they auto-slotted guys on the rosters based on their overall skill numbers. Marner is the Leafs best winger. He's on the "2nd line". Kessel is the Pens best winger. He's on the "2nd line". It is very common across the league to have a balanced top six. Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.

Buppy 1,720 Report post Posted October 9, 2018 21 hours ago, The 91 of Ryans said: Not to get all poopy but... Doesn't, like, even the goalie coach's uncle score at a 1.4 PPG rate in the Q? 7 in 5 isn't even eye-catching in the W, let alone the Q. Someone reset the Matrix when we weren't looking. The Q was the lowest scoring of the CHL leagues last year. Only 6 players hit 1.4 ppg. The whole world is a lie. Up is West. North is 5. Ed McMahon never worked for Publisher's Clearinghouse.
