Speaking of the Sedins

They are 50 point guys with fewer minutes. Any team would love that so they stay and I say they have 2 more years in them. Next year they can be scratched on back to back games and they look great with Virtanenโ€™s speed on that line. Jake should come in next year faster and ready to be a true power forward but, the fastest power forward in the league. That will help the Sedins both hit 50 plus points next year.

Still great players and even if they were 4th line players they may still help this team win a cup.

I see the Sedins back for 1 year as for JV & his speed its a non starter. They slow down the game & would make JV a wasted asset.
They donโ€™t head man the puck on the rush nor dump & chase. What they need is a very good 200โ€™ winger eg Sutter to cover up their slowness on the back check. To do that we need other Cโ€™s to fill up the void.

You can have two young 30 point guys who aren't -20 players and they'd be just as effective. They don't need them anymore.

Promise?

So Sven and granlund are better options?

They arn't minus 20 players.

They produce like high end 2nd liners with 3rd line minutes.

I don't get the hate.

They are complimentary role player types
Neither are what we would call key pieces nor does our depth help them. Although Bo & BB are a good duo IMO the 3rd wheel for them can be interchangeable without missing a beat.

I know you are stretching reality but i see where you are going with this so i counter with this...

Given that EP & AG both can impact us next season & JV continues to improve & Tree does return & we win the Dahlin lotto. Geez Iโ€™m not asking for much ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‘

EP Tavares JV...slick C & lots of speed
Kane Bo BB...better w/o Sven
Dank Hank Sutter...depth scoring
Gaunce AG Leipsic...intriguing
LE Gagner...earn playing time

I leave D for others to design

I didn't say "better", I said just as effective. Why continue to lose with 38 year olds when you can lose with 25 year olds. My point is they don't make the team better because they have 50 points, they are so defective defensively it really nullifies their point totals.

What do divisional rivals in Edmonton Calgary & Arizona donโ€™t have?

Veteran leadership that makes a difference.

TBL went from a power to missing the POโ€™s & then returned. The Oilers well we all know what happened to them.

Referencing an earlier posting...

Iโ€™d luv to watch an entertaining losing team on a nightly basis. It must be easy to do.
