Sam Reinhart is The Best Player on The Panthers

If healthy I'm taking the Avs top 6 over anyone else in the NHL, including FLA(though it is close).....the problem is that's just a huge "if" because they never seem to be healthy, or available for whatever reason, so you can't really rely on them come playoff time. If COL could somehow get a healthy MacK/Rant/Landy/Mittelstadt/Nuke/Lek for an entire playoff run they'd be one hell of a tough out(duh). Don't hold your breath waiting for that to happen though. FLA's group seems much more durable/reliable/available.

So you all really think Landy isnt fully dead at this point? And IF he ever comes back he'll be an impact player after sitting out TWO YEARS and counting? Is there been any word about him coming back?

Yes a soon to be 32 year old power forward with a severe knee injury is really going to put the Avs over the top.

Mackinnon is not that much better than Barkov to offset the rest of the top 6. Florida's top 6/9 is the best in the league, and Nuke and Landy coming back does not change that.

People love living in fantasy land

Floridas top6 is the best in the league

Barkov
Tkachuk
Reinhart
Verhaeghe
Bennett
Lundell

You can’t find a weakness from that group and they are all 29 or under

Mitt is the least proven player from the list and Landeskog hasnt played in 2.5 years. He’s never going to be prime Landy again, even without his injury he’d be right at the end of his prime
