True and yes. But I'm thinking if RNH is out for a month, it'd be helpful to have a top 6C to cushion his absence.

Doesn't Hemsky fit that bill? Or were you hopeful Meuller would play Center?

He is, I was just wondering if because Meuller can play some C if that makes him a better fit in the top 6?

Did I suggest Hemmer plays C?

Awww gotcha. Wonder if he has ever played center if not that would be a big adjustment.

Teeeeeeeeee Heeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

maybe the guy on facebook used the mode to calculate the average. In which case 29 looks to be accurate.

I WANT TO PLOW SOME CHICKS

With any luck you will secure another 1rst overall again this season....fingers crossed. Love the talent but everyone will get to the point where they say...get me the F**K out of here.

If they move Hall to C then Hemsky can slide up. Just think having someone who's actually played C'd be a better fit than moving Hall out of his natural position

I don't understand why people come on here to complain. It's RC's blog, so it's his opinion. We all know he has no real or credible sources and he's not writing on behalf of all Oiler fans. The guy writes his opinions and I kind of agree with his take on most other teams, if it's not the oilers who cares.

You answered your own question in the same place people are given the ability to voice their...

At least, that's my guess why.

According to that link, Sens are the youngest!! Makes sense I guess with the departures of senior citizens Alfie & Gonchar!

Oh yah it is Pitt. That chart is messed up...
I understand RC's arguement because he is excluding players that he feels will be moved by the start of the season but that can apply for other teams too. Regardless whether he feels they are not going to be a part of the team, right now they still are and that counts towards the average age.

Average age means diddly squat anyway.

The charts not messed up, the user using it messed up, by not clicking the appropriate button once clicking the link to sort the average age

Don't worry...Leafs fans have something else to worry about apart from age

Nazem Kadri says he's upset with the lack of progress being made with his contract negotiations.
