Duchene with 18 points in 14 games. Of all the players I did not expect him to perform this well at this stage of his career.

What could've been if we had signed him in 2019. He was at the top of my list.

Duchene did get bought out by Nashville. Not sure what happened, but they are getting hit with big cap penalties this year and next year.

Didn't I read that they wanted a change in the locker room?

I guess they bought him out to sign O'Reilly. Hasn't really paid off for them. At least Duchene still has that hunger to win a Stanley Cup. O'Reilly hasn't been the same since 2019.

While I wanted neither, I remember the Hayes > Duchene arguments that summer. Duchene isn’t on that contract anymore, but that’s really just an example of smart teams buy low and don’t sign non-Panarin UFAs to max term.

I almost forgot Kev was on the Penguins. That checks out.
