Did Crosby go to Juniors/AHL when he was drafted? That's the McDavid comparison, so it's the complete difference in talent over Reinhart moreso than body, IMO.

Did he immediately slot in as the #1 center?
I seriously dont know.

If mcEichiel went in as a #2 or 3 with Moulson, and girgensons held down the #2, do we play Grigorenko/Armia at #1? Because that doesn't sound like a good idea either.

Oh, I don't care where he slots. No matter what line, he'd be the team's best center. As long as they don't Grigo/Reinhart him and play him with scrubs, he'll make any line produce.

Next year will be what some of us thought this year might be, about 4-6 spots from worst in the league. Good thing is that still helps with lottery rankings, since it starts going to a 3-year average.

Year after that will be the push to bubble team

theres no secret that murray did what he could to handcuff the team into losing.
but that's no indication of the players effort level.

end of the day, just own it. who gives a fuk what people chirp?
management tanked for a high pick. murray aint the first to do it (he wasn't alone this year either-id say Maloney did what he could as well), nor will he be the last
u got jack eichel and youre happy.
