So Kane, Reinhart, Okposo can't be impact players? Antipin? Free agent or trade acquisition? Take a look around the league, tell me how many teams have more than 6 or 7 impact players.

No those are not impact players and I already explained my reasoning for keeping Kyle off the list I have no idea how he's going to be this year none of us do

Alrite then. Let's say we use your approach to "impact" players.

How many does Anaheim, NYR and Ottawa have?

Eichel, ROR, Kane, Okposo, Risto are all top tier players on this team and ANY team around the NHL.

Sam still needs to prove it but is just one step behind them 5.

McCabe if ever traded would easily garner a late 1st or 2nd rounder right now. Top 4 solid guy.

Nylander, Asplund, Fasching, Bailey, Baptiste, Pu, Mittlestadt are all very good prospects in the pipeline for forwards. All could play no less than 2nd line for their careers. I don't mind Olofsson either.

Guhle, Borgen, Antipin, Nelson, Stephens could all be very solid defensive guys. I don't know if any are top pairing but 2nd pairing at least.

Reasons why we suck

Dan Bylsma
The coach
The guy who makes the lines
Any player who was here before Murray i.e.- Girgensons, Foligno and Ennis

Ottawa was a Healthy Karlson away from the Stanley Cup Finals.

So the Goal for teams should be no more than 2 Impact Players

How is Kane a top-tier player when he's very inconsistent? A top-tier player is someone you can count on every night that you know is going to produce and change the game

You believe thats kane right now?

Karlsson and who are you counting for Ottawa?? Ryan and his 25 pts this season?

I'd say that Hoffman, Turris, and Stone are top tier players in this league with Karlsson and Ryan.

NYR had 5 players with 43+ pts.
OTT had 4 players with 43+ pts.
BUF had 6 players with 43+ pts.


Just saying.

He is inconsistent.. I'll give you that. We ran a BAD system. He moved lines. A lot of factors.

But the point of my statement was that he was still a PPG player the last about 3 months of the season. 28 goals on a BAD BAD offensive team this year.

He was a point per game player this year. How much better could he be? Defensively, not elite, but I believe that can get better
- jcragcrumple



If anyone is capping Eichel (and I'm not saying you are) at a point per game at 20 years old, you need to get your head examined. Kid is only young to get quicker, faster, stronger, more mature and we've got a few good ones coming through the pipeline that are not only going to make him better - and vice versa - but take some pressure off him.

I see we are back to woe is me stuff again and talking about how terrible this team is and will be.

Again why bother having a season next year, or why bother watching at all.

Careful. This type of talk can get you arrested and convicted of involuntary manslaughter. I wish I was joking.

I would offer him 10 mill and let them match it. Then I will enjoy when they have to sign McDavid for 14 mill he is asking for as is being reported in Edmonton.

24 mill for 2 players
