What’s your fantasy team name?
He’s just not that good a player. Too slow and doesn’t look confident with the puck.

He needs line mates to be good. They don’t have a top line RW for him and Hintz. Not sure why deboer has not tried Robertson-Johnston-Stankoven line. Robo needs someone to feed him or finish his passes.
have we considered politely asking Pavelski to come out of retirement

Him, Pavs and Hintz had great chemistry with each other a few years ago. That’s a factor along with his shot. He doesn’t shoot as often anymore and not as deadly as it was back then.
I think his son Johnny really misses him being around this season.

Robertson and a 1st for Andersson and Zary
We need Skygodz for more accurate proposals.
Troy McClure
Should’ve drafted Makar
I was curious about a few things during this Wild game.
I was reminded Benn is a UFA this summer and will turn 36 before next season.
The first year of the big Hintz contract had no trade protection, but starting this season, he had full NMC protection kick in until the contract ends in 2031.
Robertson is in season 3 of his 4 season extension. The salary was back loaded to make his qualifying offer at the end of it $9.3 million. His contract also has no trade protection, and uh... Nill might want to take advantage of this freedom before getting to the end and needing to deal with the question of paying this qualifying offer he's no longer worth.

Man, it's sad looking at some of the numbers our guys have to start this season
Hintz - 10 in 16 (51 point pace)
Robertson - 8 in 16 (41 point pace)
Johnston - 7 in 16 (35 point pace)
Heiskanen - 6 in 16 (30 point pace)
Of course, if the PP starts clicking these should change at some point but it's tough to see.
I think the worst part about it is most of these guys outside of sometimes Johnston don't show any signs of their numbers changing anytime soon.
I don't know the exact numbers but the scoring chances for these guys has gotta be wayyy down. Feels like some games they don't even get chances at all, especially Robertson

Wouldn't the easiest be to just go back to Wyatt with Hintz and Robo? They looked good last season

The Future is Now
Which one of you mofos did your voodoo and switched Marchment and Hintz's bodies? It seemed like every other shift in the Minny game Hintz was on his butt and Marchment is holding off defenders, staying on his skates and picking up goals. WTF universe have you created?
The big worry besides paying Robo ridiculous money would be that Bourque doesn't come good and while Wyatt and Stank are very solid there's just not enough offense two seasons from now.
In addition I go back and forth on Benn but it seems like a bad bet to pay him $4m even in a one year deal starting next season. Gimpy Seguin is a better value and that can't last either.
