How many years did Matthews need? McD?? Laine?? Marner?

1. Needs Eichel
2. He's young
3. New posit on

Boy ...the excuses are really adding up...he's young?? Laine is two years younger and has more GOALS than 23 has points. Invisible for 3 of 4.

If he was 25 I'd right there with you, but he's not even old enough to legally buy a beer yet. Players develop at different rates. Look back about 10 years about half the players taken at #2 are hardly their team's leaders. From 2005 to 2014 Bobby Ryan, Jordan Staal, JVR, Tyler Seguin is really good, but I wouldn't exactly say he puts his team on his back, Ryan Murray, so half of the players aren't their team's leaders and never have been. Not winning a coin flip doesn't make me want to scream. And he's still only 20 years old. Let's give the kid a few years before we find out what kind of player he is.

So we have to wait until he's 25?? 6 years?? I wonder how many goals Laine, Drisitl and Marner will have when Reinhart turns 25 and begins his career

Whatever you say . We should just cut him right now , 2nd year in the league, he should be leading the league in scoring. God why don't you have Tim Murray's job? You are a genius!

That was not a personal attack, this is...

I guess that means yes. And she must be a saint for having to settle for someone like you.

Like I said. 50%. We lost a coinflip that he's a superstar right away. And not even that. Seguin was traded precisely because he wasn't a leader and look at him now. He doesn't need to be a leader because he scores a ton of points. But Reinhart scored 23 goals as an undersized rookie. And he's got 4 points in 8 games so far. And you can use "last place" now, you really couldn't before either, but you really can't now, so you have to find something to female dog about.
