I'm even liking Brown again*, on line 3...where he's better suited and with the 12 minutes of ice. He and Kupari and Turcotte look good together. Don't give up on Rasmus,
he's got immense skills, tremendous skating, physical and adept defensively. 8 points now, is not horrible for his amount of ice and role. Turcotte looking good at center
or left wing. He's going to score any game and even have a 2 point game. I'm not worried.
Speaking of youth, does anyone have a Durzi jersey yet? Crikey. Blows me away. I would not trade him for Muzzin...and we have Bjornfot and Grundstrom.
He looks better with the puck than any King since Lubo on the PP. So deceptive, quick feet, great moves, sick passes and can shoot the puck and get it through
or in the back of the net. When he moves in to about 40 feet, he's almost lethal. And he's only 19 games in and has 10 points.
The youth is here and more coming in waves...with 3 more in the next year or 2, that may be even the best yet: Byfield, Clarke, Chromiak. Vilardi can
still make an impact. At this rate, I see 1 or 2 going for a Chychrun or another elite piece. So be it. Just keep Quinton, Arty, Clarke, Durzi, please.
Would prefer to keep Turcotte and Chromiak too. All in all, how can anyone complain where this team is and where it's headed?
* but please, do not extend contract...about 5 young forwards are killing it, or about to kill it and need spots.
