Stammertime91
TBL: TEAM OF THE CENTURY
It's really tough on Jake to come in during this. Won't be an easy situation because people will view him as Stamkos' replacement and wrongfully so. He's a heck of an add.
He's the perfect player. Can play 1st or 2nd line. Great hockey smarts. Faster than Stammer and solid on the PP. He'll be a 40 goal player playing with Kuch, Point, Paul, and Hedmonster on PP1 getting 10+ PP goals easily. The league is so used to seeing 91 this will be a shocker to them at first. Edit: Fixed it. Sheesh.It's really tough on Jake to come in during this. Won't be an easy situation because people will view him as Stamkos' replacement and wrongfully so. He's a heck of an add.
Only 40pts? lolHe's the perfect player. Can play 1st or 2nd line. Great hockey smarts. Faster than Stammer and solid on the PP.

Only 40pts? lol
Ah, I thought he was talking overall.On the PP, those a great #'s
Goals. My bad. It's been a long day. Jesus. Time to hit the edit button.Only 40pts? lol
Unless there's some mental issues trying to live up to a large contract, I think he'll be fine. His playoff numbers are really niceThis kid better perform.
goals | goals per game | game winning goals | |
MacKinnon | 46 | 0.57 | 7 |
Point | 42 | 0.48 | 8 |
Draisaitl | 41 | 0.55 | 4 |
Marchand | 40 | 0.44 | 11 |
Pastrnak | 39 | 0.43 | 6 |
Guentzel | 38 | 0.55 | 8 |
I think with alot of these contracts we've given out the last 2 years the term doesn't matter as much. By the later years for some of these deals our window will have closed and we'll be baaaaaaad. Still need to reach the cap floor. There's hope of shedding some of the contracts in trades or buyouts (although I believe Guentzels contracts isn't an easy one to buyout since all the bonuses?).On one side I don't want contract talks with important players every year and Guentzel was going to get that AAV for sure, anywhere he went, but 7 years? I understand Guentzel wanted term too as it was going to be his last big contract but I figured we were an attractive enough of a destionation for him to settle for 5-6 years?
This poor guy doesn’t fully understand the shit show he is walking into. He doesn’t live up to this contract the fan response will be swift.
And JBB has bet his career on this move…..
Guentzel will produce but the more casual fans, more than we may even expect, are going to wrongfully view him as the replacement to Stamkos and if he goes pointless it's always going to behuh? half this board is defending Jeannot who had one fluke season, Guentzel is coming in with 2 40 goal seasons and like 6 PPG seasons and now the skeptics come out on him? you guys must have no faith in Kucherov too.
Well, sure. It's still going to linger overhead until his welcome wears off and he lights it up.Yeah no matter the circumstances Tampa is a cakewalk for players compared to some of the larger markets.
If he's attached to Point/Kuch all year he should. If he gets assigned to pick up the 2nd line he won't. Regardless of PP1 time.Guentzel is hitting 100 points this upcoming season.
i don't think anyone here is defending jeannot at this point. some of us just like to have some patience and not immediately shit on a player who got injured right as he got here.huh? half this board is defending Jeannot who had one fluke season, Guentzel is coming in with 2 40 goal seasons and like 6 PPG seasons and now the skeptics come out on him? you guys must have no faith in Kucherov too.
He had 8 goals in 7 games in 2022 and 4 in 11 this season.So 23 og his playoff goals came in 16/17
Doh! That graphic about 38 playoff goal looks stupid now. That's 8 years ago.
Smdh. What are we doing here
Well he'll fit right it with those first round exits hereHe had 8 goals in 7 games in 2022 and 4 in 11 this season.
Those Pittsburgh teams were pretty meh.
Guentzel is hitting 100 points this upcoming season.
I have never understood why guys hang onto their number that was all but randomly assigned to them on their first day of work. I would have figured Point would have changed to 19 and Cirelli to 22 like 5 years ago. Guentzel to literally anything else
