Around the League - 2022-23 season thread part I

It’s wild to think that mcdavid has only 11 5 v 5 points

The points our boys would be putting up if the PP was top-10 in the league…marone.

Imagine the points McDavid could put up playing on a good 5on5 team like the Devils.

Imagine the points McDavid could put up playing on a good 5on5 team like the Devils.

But if McDavid was on the Devils, we wouldn't be a good 5 on 5 team anymore because we couldn't afford any of the depth players who make us a good 5 on 5 team. McDavid's contract creates his own situation.

I don't think that's true. We could have him for the salary of Nico or Jack and Mango.

Bratt comparable?

 

[Mgd31]

Fitz come on baby!

Bratt comparable?

I think so. Their production tracks closely.

Would love Bratt at this hit.

That would be a sweet deal. I’d even toss him a few more 100K because he’s a bit younger.

Fitz come on baby!

In 33 days!

 

[Capt Nico Poo]

That 8x8 for Bratt is starting to sound reasonable now that he has cooled off a little. Hintz is 1C after all.

 

[Blackjack]

Getting Bratt on an 8x8 or 8.5would be massive.

 

[bossram]

Yep. That Hintz deal is a good indicator for a Bratt signing.

Give him the money Fitz!!!

Didn’t know Colton White already had 12 GP for the Ducks this season.

Not sure how 13:14 ATOI equals 2nd pair defenseman but White is up to 49 NHL GP now.

He only needs handful of more game to pass Brett Seney’s 55 GP to suddenly become the 2015 Devils draftee with 3rd most NHL GP (out of 5, but hey, good for him).

Poor guy can’t even get his jersey facing the right way.

In all fairness, Fleury got a lot more first pp unit time.

Good for Colton!

 

[FooteBahl]

I don’t know whether to laugh or cry for the kid. I think he and Kakko both need some time…they’ll be good players.

 

[BurntToast]

Both Krappo and Laugh, need play drivers. Plus, they both look slow decision making/skating but at a .5 pace is Laf really a bust?

Two of our castoffs in their top 4...no wonder they have 1 regulation win this season...and it's against the Rangers.

The real question is whether he will share his career earnings in Canadian dollars.

Comments on this one are pretty fun. Mackinnon comparisons, “Rangers can’t give him top-6 ice time” (as if it’s fine that a 1OA can’t earn top-6 ice time…), doesn’t get enough PP time… i feel for the kid a LOT but i’m loving it happening to the Rangers
