Adding to this. The most consistent line plays together 7% of the time.

No other team is below 10%.

That is huge!

You want chemistry, leave your effing lines together for awhile you idiot.

If the frequency of the line juggling continues after this year, I'll start worrying
for now it's just a minor nuisance imo

No Sabres on the list

Colin White is 19

I'm sort of amazed that we don't have anyone listed.

Im not. Our prospect pool has become quite weak with the exception of goaltending.


Side note: Kyle Connor is such a stud. Wish we somehow got our hand on him

That's the plan. Thing is, we get a top 3 he could be up in the bigs right away too.

Where do you think Eichel and Reinhart would be on that list? Or even Risto?

Haven't read all the comments, so I don't know if it was said, but Kadri got a $5,000 fine for the throat slashing gesture.

Kind of shocked that Fasching, Bailey, or even Peterson/Kasdorf didn't get a mention especially Fasching.

But all of our top guys are up basically. Eichel, Reinhart, Risto, McCabe, Pysyk.

Ummmmmmmmmm Reinhart at center tonight?????


I saw this same projected lineup piece on NHL.com too. that was a big of surprise that he is pegged as 2C and Eichel moves down?

that was special circumstance- nashville was looking at losing suter to free agency, the stars all lined up just right for poile to feel like he had to overpay for a third line center. if one was so inclined to suggest that gaustad should have been moved for whatever the best pick offered- one day after miller got steam rolled by lucic, i wouldnt stand in their way. either way, gaustad and a fourth for a mid first is an unreasonable return that should not be expected.
- rover16


I agree, very special circumstance, which is why it shouldn't be used as an example. A 1st for gaustad was beyond too high of compensation for him. It seems that many use that as a benchmark for trading away rentals, rather than what it was, an aberration.

It was basically Gaustad and a 4th for Girgensons, so that's what we'll get back for him
