Defensively, we are way way better than previous years.

This trade deadline should be pretty easy to pick up a couple of wingers.

The 3rd line centre will be tricky though.
Yes.
Much better defensively.
2 nd line centre for me
Moving Tavares to 3.

Simpson keeps saying that Edmonton's taking away the center of the ice but every team does that to the Leafs. They have to find a way to play through it and create scoring chances.

Yeah, he clearly didn't address his weakness. He's too weak on his feet.

Has speed and a shot, but the book on him is well written. This is the problem with so much applied to the core, it's difficult to fund strong depth, secondary scoring. This is where McMann and Knies (before his next contract) are so vital if they hope to have any success.
Right and with him its not his size, it is that he has no base, St Louis was smaller but had a strong base, you never saw him fall as much.
