Elite center Alex Barkov has like 29 points his rookie season. Yeah he was 18 but he was a 2nd overall pick. He's a 2 way beast and will score 90 points this year. So theres hope for our boys to become top 6 guys , they'll never be elite tho like Barkov. We MUST pick top 3/

And a player like "The Great One" had zero points as a Rookie for Edmonton since signing in the WHA made Gretzky void rookie status.
 
You DO realize they dont go away, just bc we lost in regulation today, right?

I obviously went and looked at the standings since we lost a few in regulation, saw our position thanks to the loser points and expressed my frustration.

Wait f***ing up tonight wasn't part of a points buyback program?

Those points are still part of our permanent record?
 
honestly why are chytil and lias here why arent they in the ahl or some czech league or sweeden im not saying they are busts because its obviously way 2 early but neither are improving at anything how is this good for them?? are there examples of such young players struggling this much in the nhl actually turning it around and being productive nhl players??
A lot of improvement will be noticable next year. Right now they're fighting it. I expect they'll be much better after a summer off to process everything that happened this year. Just my opinion.

Ironic, because that’s still like 23 point more than Lias will get this year.

Anyone else concerned by the complete lack of push back or fight or compete these guys are showing! These rookies have regressed!

Our AHL team is a Turkish prison.
That is going to be our Achilles Heel moving forward with this team. That should not be happening . Leafs are about to give Sheldon Keefe the biggest deal in AHL ever for a coach...they are doing it the right way . You HAVE to have these building blocks in place in order to provide that solid foundation . The Rangers have the money to improve that AHL club off the ice and there is no excuse IMO . Fix the staff and get some guys in there from Europe and College and a couple of older vets that can provide some guidance ......somebody PLEASE get that done !!! Find those teachers no matter where they hail from .
 
Chytil it’s obvious he just needs to mature and get stronger and he’s going to be a player.

Lias well Lias is 20 from what I’ve been told.

Pionk is awful. Should not be in the nhl.

DeAngelo is becoming a stud future 50 plus pt dman before our very eyes.

Buchnevich is doing the opposite of what he did last year at this time. He’s taking the opportunity and flourishing. Really impressed by his overall game the last month or so. He’s a different player.

Vesey is what he is I don’t want him

Lemieux love him

Howden another guy I really like. I think he’s a 30 pt 3rd line center at worst.

Despicable Me is on now, yeah those little girls could kick Chytil’s ass. Kid needs to bulk up, gain some weight, and get stronger.

Yeah it pains me to say it, but they have gone Full Tank. I hate to see them lose, but at this point, with 10 games left, what else is there that can be done?

I said it a couple games ago... The team has been stripped to the absolute studs, and there are only 3 legit top 6 forwards NHL forwards on the team at this point... Zibanjead, Buchnevich, Kreider... The rest is 3rd and 4th line fodder that is just playing as filler for now. The guys that are working hard are trying to stnad out but quite frankly there isn't much to show for the work they are putting in.

I only got to watch the highlights for this game, but hot damn, Pionk on the ice for almost every goal against, got ripped off the top pairing with Staal AGAIN, he's really making a case for him to be relegated to the 3rd pairing.

It's very possible that this team is actually throwing games--both management and players. The guys who put up crazy good numbers aren't motivated to do much at this point--this is a bottom 5 team, imagine if this was the case all year, the players would be in absolute depression.

Here's to hoping we can catch a break and get Hughes via the lottery
