his goal to assist ratio is the exact opposite of what I expected

Agreed, but he's playing with a guy similar to him and Kane who is snake-bitten or missing the net.

A. take trumps money to get into office
B. rip him on national tv
C. get flustered when Trump fires back at her

His passing ability

I really think he's just scratched the surface of what we're going to see from him over the next 5 years.

- HonkFortheGoose



For sure
That pass to oreilly from behind the net was fantastic
It's no secret how much I liked Ekblad in that draft, but for where we picked, Reinhart is definitely the guy I'd have chosen
He's not a star right now,
But he's trending in the right direction
He'll be a very good player for us for many years

Out of Bennett, Reinhart and Draisaitl. I think i actually most impressed with Draisaitl. Going a point per game in his rookie year is pretty impressive. 2nd on team in points

That he should, and I figured he would never win the Selke playing out West, just doesn't get the writer national coverage that he does now

Finally the majority of the NHL media is seeing him play day in and day out.

Just saw a piece on Yahoo from a Minny writer suggesting a trade of Rhino for Brodin +...would be pretty even deal, but would tm do it?

We get #1 left handed D, 22 years old out of it. Long term d pair done.

I dunno. We are heavy at center now, and really need a good left d man that can pair w Risto for the next 15 years....

I am curious to see what his production will be like when McDavid returns.

I would think it should be the same or increase with him likely receiving more favorable matchups, but I don't think that is a given.

He's laid some guys out this year. And taken all of 2 penalties, both of which were against Chicago, with the second one being total crap as he never even touched Panarin.

That's not his style of play. He plays the body very well and has plenty of hits this season for a guy who isn't out there to punch you in the face. The fact that he plays so many minutes, all situations AND has compiled 65 hits while playing such a disciplined game is actually pretty impressive in my opinion.

You want someone to jack you in the face, call the Delorean.
