He's by all means having a really good season yet again. He started out slow with just 2 points in his first 7 games, which then followed him missing a month with the suspected concussion.
Sometimes I forget he even missed a month earlier this year. Both him and Jack were out at the same time for about 2 weeks or so in November.

I saw an AP article that said he could be back by next month, but that seems really unlikely. April/End of first round would be my honest guess.
I agree that simple offense tends to develop early but there is always the exception to the rule and Jack was maybe recently 20 when you slammed him? How many NHL players are at their peak by their sophomore year if they start it as a teenager? I’ll guess most hit their peak a bit later than 20.
We're cooking now boys and girls.

Devils Get a Behind-the-Scenes Taste for Stadium Series | FEATURE | New Jersey Devils
When Jesper Bratt was growing up in Sweden, he and his friends had a routine. After school, the group would jump on their bikes and head to a local outdoor rink in a town next to his parents. Even if it was snowing, the kids would bike through the snow

giving up assets for an expensive pending UFA like Hanifin definitely doesn't make much sense considering where we are. He is basically lefty Severson. We don't need that type of skillset on the backend IMO.
If you are going to give up prime assets for a DMan, I would much rather get a guy like Chychrun who is younger and has another year of term.

Ugh so I ended up just paying $440 for an Adidas Stadium Series Jersey from eBay. I can't believe I just paid this much especially being i had one in my cart the other day. Am I stupid? Please be honest. Watch next week the store reloads with jerseys. That would be my luck. Now I don't need those fanatic jerseys I ordered so I guess ill return them or sell them.

If you can afford it and you love the product then that's all that matter.
so we are going to have him leave only to get him back in a trade for a flakey superstar winger?

I don't know what a jersey costs these days.
I'm still living in the CCM and Reebok eras. I even love Reebok's NHL hats.
I never got an Adidas jersey. I don't know about a Fanatics either.

An Adidas jersey from the website is like 240. Between tax and shipping I overpaid by $170 for the Adidas. The fanatics jersey I got at store price but 2 different qualities. Fanatics has a heat pressed logo.

If they don't go back on sale I'll be content with my purchase. If they do then I'll be pretty pissed.

If you like it and can afford it, don't feel too bad. At least you got the Adidas, I'm fully expecting my Fanatics jacket to incinerate upon opening. I'll just have to eat the 20 bucks to send it back.

It's badly marked up, but the stadium series is sold out everywhere right now and it's the only way to have one by the game I think.

The fanatics aren't that bad. The only thing I'll say is be careful washing it. My fanatics jersey I didn't really read the directions and washed it with warm water. I might of even thrown it in the dryer like an idiot and the logo started to bubble up

Unacceptable. If Nico is sad fire the entire front office // staff at years end
I now accept a Tanev, Hanifin, Coleman mega deal. Give them what they want

I don't think he was even 20 when I made those comments.
Yes most peak a bit later than 20...not much later though.
But I don't know of any elite player that was as bad as Jack was in his first two years. Joe Thornton I suppose, but he was also 6'4 220 lbs being utilized as a bottom 6 player that was dropping the gloves against the likes of Ken Daneyko and to me that is not really a similar situation. But I'll never change my mind in believing Jack simply didn't belong in the league in 2019 and maybe even not 2020.
Regardless none of this comparable to the time it takes a defenseman to become elite at his craft. Not remotely similar- It's just apples and oranges.
Wayne Gretzky was 20 years old when he broke the 200 point mark. Nick Lidstrom was 30 when he won his first Norris.

I've noticed some of the logos have some terrible crimping going on from some of the pictures I've seen on social media. I wanted to see one in person before I copped. Let us know what you think when they arrive, but you should be good with the Adidas one regardless.

It's probably complete recency bias, but I really like Hatakka a lot.
Could he be the guy with Siegs and Luke instead of Bahl? Will be interesting to watch how he develops.
