Other then Dorsett the others had pretty much the same shooting % as the previous year. Loui was up a bit. Henrik was down 11%. It's really a wash in the end. Guys go up, others go down.

I didn't look at many but saw that the team went up by 1% total which is significant when trying to predict. Does it go up again? Regress by 50% ? 150%?

Like you said it goes up and down, which way does it go.

they all might see an improvement, but TG won't give Granlund that same opportunity again.

I could be wrong, I kinda like Granlund.

- hillbillydeluxe

Granlund scored most of his points playing with the Sedin's and some PP time. Last year it was defensive or nothing for him. TG is going to have to chose. Do they want defence or points? If given the scoring chance, is he going to be better then what's available.

Steve Simmons is the biggest pieces of poop in all hockey media since Al Strachan. He just likes to start poop. Reminds me of that Whiskey_Tango Troll, to be honest.

yep. have to wonder where he will slot in.

I keep looking at EP and wonder who he will play with, if not Sutter then he needs a winger that could take some draws.

I'm not sure who that would be because Gagner and Granlund both don't stand out as good faceoff guys. Not sure if Gaudette took many draws when he was in the lineup.

The comment section is bashing him hard.

I won't disagree with who he says is an A prospect.

Who cares if he says OJ isn't. either OJ or him isn't far off.

we all know we need more high end skill. another top 5 pick at least. or lucky.

He would be a decent fit for a few teams that might need a defensively reliable forward.
I was going to suggest a team like Tampa, but, they are already loaded with midget forwards, so maybe a team like Islanders or Buffalo.

I dont disagree with anything he says in the article about the player rankings either. There is writing about it in a way where you dont sound like you are the only person who knows it though. He has yet to master it.

I feel like Jake and Elias would complement each other well.

I don't really think it matters as much because the team will have 3 C's who take the bulk of the draws. Other than on the PP, I think you will see EP and whoever he's playing with hopping over the boards opposed to being rolled out after stoppages.

Yeah, whoever the (frank) uses an actual photo of themselves on a hockey blog should be ashamed of themselves.

One makes the play one creates it. Both have the ability to create separation in their own way. Jake has speed. EP has finess. Seems like they could be a good match.
