I think it’s like comparing Gretzky and Lemieux. As long as you have one of them you’ll be alright.

Very true, and it could be a reasonable argument that I'm not going to have, that Lemieux was better

I’m not going to argue with you. Could make a case for both. That’s why I said it.

I did just say I wasn't going to argue, I didn't mean with you, I meant with anyone. I really could care less actually.

You from Canada?
Must be, that's a homer take.
Eichel is better.


I know you missed my haikus.

Ok how about this - at the end of their careers could they potentially be the best top 2 picks from the same draft in history? I don’t have the time or patience to look up all the previous 1-2 combos, but I’m sure someone will chime in.

Hmmm. If McD and Eichs continue to develop/play at their current pace for their entire career I still give them the edge. Although some cups will help that argument.

Not many teams had the luxury of having two of the top 3-5 Centers in their generation on one team like the Penguins have had though.

It's almost like the league fixed it to keep the team in Pittsburgh...

Was the quickest 1 2 I could think of. Lol

I mean you’re not wrong, for now at least

So on the broadcast they were just talking about the goat head jersey reveal. They did it at a sold out open practice? I didn’t know that. Obviously back then the internet was not what it is today. Was anything leaked or was everyone in attendance genuinely surprised when they skated out in black and red? What was the fan reaction? I can only imagine what things would’ve been like in here if ‘here’ existed then.

Nice goal

Wow

I like that kid.... I’ll take him long term.

Of course i don’t like Okposo’s contract...
But we have one of the best “4th” lines in hockey
Extending Girgs & Larsson is an obvious & easy yes

The fact that RHD are so hard to find and we got Montour and Joker in back to back trades is complete larceny.

I wonder if Hatboro is blowing into his paper bag right now.

Like how they came right back with the LOG line right after the goal

Tavares & Hedman are a pretty good 1-2
