With Kuzy in play, I’d go:

Guentzel - Aho - Teravainen

Svechnikov - Kuznetsov - Fast/Jarvis

Martinook - Staal - Jarvis/Fast

Noesen - Drury - Necas

Kotkaniemi

Lemieux

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Orlov - Chatfield

DeAngelo

Andersen

Kochetkov

Martin

Raanta

I’d go what I put above. Kuz will need a solid defensive winger and I don’t want to have to relegate svech to that roll(I’d rather svech be wide open offense with Kuz). Plus Noesen-Drury-Necas jive really well.

Yeah actually, move Jarvis to Kuzy’s wing. Necas and Kuzy would be a disaster.

Anyone have any insight as to why Kuznetsov's production fell off a cliff this season? Did het get moved to another line and didn't gel?  Ice time? What happened in Washington that made him expendable after averaging over 40 points per season for the last 5?

Between his drug habit and his mental health, not sure if he’s able to really focus and put forth the effort.

Hope is that Rod and familiarity with other Russians like his buddy Orlov will rejuvenate him.

Cocaine or lack their of. In all seriousness mdc is right though. Drug habits and mental health that followed. He got help but the caps still felt he needed a move away from DC to help him mentally. Nobody took it until now though.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Watching those throws Drake Maye was making on a dead run threading lasers into tight coverage on the sidelines over and over in that game against the Bills... these people need to go watch that and be honest with themselves. And yeah, I'm a Heels fan but I'm specifically using Maye here because he's another young highly drafted QB not an established top tier player. Seems like a fair apples to apples comparison versus using a Mahomes or Allen.

      why rig the scenario with the "as a passer" tag.   I mean, I assume you do that because Bryce needs help in the argument.  If we are just talking players and no contacts?   I mean, give me Young over Russell Wilson.   That's it.   I'd put him on par w/ Penix, Fields, McCarthy and Rattler,  so that's a wash.  Give me everyone else over Bryce.  And I'm not handicapping the other players as passing only because when you start doing that it's really meaningless.

      McCarthy to date, for sure. That's a very early sample size, however. Russell Wilson is a backup. Not sure Wilson wouldn't be better suited to our offense specifically, but at the bare minimum it's basically a wash. Hurts I would generally disagree with. I do think Hurts is likely to be less than stellar in our offense. Justin Fields - Agree. Fields is a significant threat on the ground but he sees the field as badly or worse than Bryce. And that's with significantly more reps. Spencer Rattler - I honestly thought this would be an easier call that it is. TBH, right now Rattler looks a lot better. Really almost across the board. Kyler - Murray is better. Basically across the board. Not significantly better, mind you. Trevor Lawrence is more debatable than it seems. Low completion percentages, tons of TO's.....he really has been quite bad this year in Jax. He is considerably more talented than Bryce but the results have been marginally better. Tua - Tua is a little more dynamic of a player but he is a TO machine. Tend to agree. Caleb Williams. Not sure on this. Williams is still struggling to be consistent but his upper end is WAY higher than Bryce. He shows it fairlu frequently, as well. Probably would rather be working through Caleb's issues than Bryce. Penix - 100%. This guy stinks. Cam Ward. This is a little tough. Again, far higher ceiling on Ward and he shows flashes but it's been a mess there in Tenn. Probably lean towards Bryce here.
