Anything else is icing on the cake, Jarvis and Necas are pacing 30 goal seasons if svechnikov would be as well if he'd been healthy all season, Turbo is resurgent... 

 

This season we have a legit chance to have 4-6 30 goal guys....

Aho 35-40g player

Guentzel 35-40 g player

Svechnikov 30 goal player 

Necas 30 goal player

Jarvis 30 goal player 

Turbo 30 g pace

We have more guys performing as scorers this year than any year except 2006

 

 

Im just thinking playoffs. Everyone seems to change during that time at some point which leads to our exit.

I agree with that some of it has to do with the tighter style of hockey that's played in the playoffs..... Some of it IMO Is that almost all of our top talent for scoring is still VERY YOUNG (looking at you Marty Necas) he and Jarvis need to keep up the performances....

 

Adding a guy like Guentzel increases our Cup chances by a lot IMO he's CLUTCH in the playoffs....

 

I wanted him last year because I watched the entire Pitt-NYR series last season and Trouba knocked Crosby out in game 1..... Guentzel Carried them to a game 7 single handily 8g 8a....

 

Playoffs alone are why this was a much better outcome than Mier last season.

What are we thinking, are we done? I wish there was a 2C out there we could make a play on but so far Lindholm is the only decent C I’ve seen available. 

Haven’t read it yet but here’s the days 50 round up. 5 hours to go. 
 

That being said. There isn’t really a 2C upgrade left on the market at this point.

Word this morning is they are still trying to make a deal for scoring help. Buch and Vat are apparently still in the conversation.

Would like: Buchnevich, Vatrano, Toffoli, Eberle, Granlund (only decent center left)

Would take: Pacioretty

Has Max even been producing this year after return from injury? Haven’t been following him. Heard the panthers are angling for him.

Either of those guys would be great. Vatrano costs less in cap space and both have an additional year. Would give us 3 legitimate lines with Drury and Staal being the weakest links.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
