I mean it's easy to say in hindsight but it's like....since when is this a roster to ever go the 11/7 route. I feel like that's more for teams who lack forward depth....which we do not. Boeser or not.
Yeah but at least we were able to get rid of that anchor Daniel Sprong.

Guy was wasting so much game clock by dangling people with end-to-end rushes instead of dumping it in.

While the coaching staff have done a good job getting results with the players they have, between Desharnais being a guy they identified and wanted to work with and their love affair with Juulsen you have to question their personnel decisions. May just be a matter of management having to take away their toys.
Agree. They cant evaluate shit.

They were lucky to make the finals, and wont get that far this year. Their window is closing real fast with huge money signings this year .
In a different timeline, we beat them in 7 games and frustrated with back-to-back second round losses in consecutive years, Draisaitl refuses to sign an extension and demands a trade.

We had the chance to close their window ourselves...

Might as well try to flip Hoglander into a defencemen - Tocchet doesn’t trust him defensively like Sprong anyways

Funnily enough he's basically doing what Pettersson did after his hot start last season, where he wasn't really playing well but he was managing to stay PPG so people didn't really talk about it.

If Miller falls significantly below PPG, or if Pettersson surpasses him in points, it will become a much bigger story.

100%. Miller also gets Quinn Hughes like 60-70% of the time, and prime ozone starts. We have a big problem here with our top 2 centres.
