Love the intensity but it's pre-season and I don't want someone hurt for a nothing game. Let's finish the game without injuries and do this again when it counts

The wild hot takes about Robertson are really weird right now, jeez
Not really. He's a late 2nd round pick who gets easily pushed around at the NHL level and has played like 40-50 AHL games since 2019/20. I'd say people saying he needs more time in the AHL is fair because most players drafted where he is usually spends more time down there to develop anyways.

Yeah... he'll be fine. He's playing fine. The hot takes that he needs to be traded or whatever is kinda weird. Not even close to the worst performing player right now.

Just his shot, skating, and work ethic, but ya, nothing.
He has barely shown any of this skill at the NHL level. Shows in preseason when the rosters are somewhat competitive he doesn't have it. Trade him for low pick. Better to sell low then sell at 0.

Are we going to do this song and dance for 5 years and hope he shows us in the 5th year hes not trash?
 
Well I might have gone from loving Tie Domi to hating him in an instant (the elbow)...........

I would like some more info about Max and his connection with Sundin.

Anything? I'll take anything. Man Sundin is like this guy I want to know about what he is up to but he is just not in the spotlight ever (and good for him!)
Mats is mentioned in Max's book a bit, actually. (which also speaks to the fact that Max has always had a pass-first mentality)

[Mats would have a little smirk on his face whenever he saw me. “Hey, Maxie,” he’d say, using his nickname for me. “How are you, buddy?” Just hearing those words was enough to make my day. Mats was my favorite player—he was like a god to me. “I’m good, thanks,” I would say quietly. “How’s your season going?” he asked one day. “We’re doing all right.” “Scoring a lot of goals?” “Kind of. I like passing more than shooting, though.” Mats smiled. “That’s a good instinct to have. A great pass can feel as good as scoring a goal. Just remember that sometimes, though, the goalie is waiting for you to pass, so you might need to just shoot the puck.” That wasn’t the only time a Hall of Famer told me that I needed to shoot more. A couple of years after Mats passed along that advice, Mario Lemieux said to me jokingly, “Max, in the NHL, they don’t pay you for assists.”]
