Knowing Kruger, EROD will go on the 1st line and Eichel on the 3 rd for " BALANCE".

So, let's see.

The "terrible" GM brought in these "terrible" players, and people are worried about trade requests?

Sam has been playing well. Consistent.

Both recent pp goals (ovi style) were 10 feet in front of me.

FWIW, Accari has as many goals as Hoffman this year. Not sure Hoffman would be worth the cost.

This GM has brought in one forward via trade that he made a long term commitment too (Skinner)

He has brought in two defenceman that in all likelihood should be here long term (Montour and Joker) and another in Miller that was a move to provide depth (done before he swung the Joker deal).

The rest was patchwork to make up for the lack of assets and prospect pipeline he was given to work with.

Botts’ demise will be due to Mittelstadt not panning out and the fact he didn’t make the one trade he needed to make to acquire a 2C to fill the hole ROR left. Not because a bunch of forwards on expiring contracts are underachieving.

Erod proved himself, skinner just has to get healthy.

I was told all is well in Sabre land. Nothing to worry about.

100%. My comment wasn’t about ERod. Just about Hoffman’s production this year.
