Sucks but not surprising

4 goals in 5 games. WTF is going on. Seems like Bob Seger is the only one who can score.

Whole team hasn't been scoring, sometimes players get bumped down to try other things. It isn't always a message being sent or the player sucks. Haven't been paying attention to the Griffs, but those who do say the team hasn't been scoring a lot lately.

Not saying he isn't struggling, maybe he is, as I hoped for more pts also, but Kasper struggled offensively as well in the AHL and he is fine in the NHL. Some players games mesh better in the NHL than the AHL. Guys like Pulkkinen and many others did well in the AHL offensively and couldn't hang in the NHL, so lower scoring doesn't always mean much.

Don't forget Kasper playing with Raymond and Larkin.
I have never liked Danielson pick, he is typical third line center, Larkin was also third line center. Things could change, everything in his hands. Next season Danielson should play third line center in NHL, preferably with Kane and maybe Soderblom.

Only the most negative of people considered Larkin a 3C in the NHL. Everyone else had him as a top 6 C.

He was in juniors #3

He was in juniors #3

Sure, because he was behind two elite centers, but because he was behind those two didn’t mean that normal people thought 3C was his NHL upside.

Did I say that his upside was third line center? If I said that , my apologies.
Actually I prefer him over those 2 elite players for his leadership and for what he is for younger guys.

It's funny going back to the old thread. Dylan Larkin Pick

A lot of people had him as a better offensive Helm...with hands. He was the "safe pick", he was panned by quite a few people for being too safe.
