    Watched the game walk away. McDavid's team might make the playoffs thanks to him, we got a 2nd tier first round pick.

      Yeah, it sucks drafting a player in the tavares/stamkos tier.

        It's set us up quite nicely for another lottery pick.

            Jack did step up.

            Unfortunately... Kane, ROR, Samson, Jack, Okposo, Rasmus, Foligno, McCabe and Lehner can't make a team by themselves.

            We need to get rid of dead wood in any way possible.

              Bingo. Part of that process is through June's draft. The other part is trades and free agency. Karl alzner is a UFA...

                Believe me....the Penguins, Hawks and LA Kings went through the same process we're going through now. Longer time of pain, but in the end it's well worth it.

                Keep in mind one piece of dead wood goes in the expansion draft. AND we still have the trade deadline on March 1st.

                  If...and that's a REALLY big IF...Buffalo gets Alzner, who would he pair up with D-wise?

                            Did you see the one shift where Girgs centered for Foligno and Kane?

                            Talk about an absolute force of a line!

                                Sure he is no Mcdavid but he will certainly be one of the top 10 players in the league for many years to come.

                                Eichel is great and only 20.
