54%, good guess though

Barzal also tied for the lead in the playoffs in 5v5 scoring, so there's that

Not for the season. No way.

He scores when he shoots. Simple concept. Perhaps Trotz benching him for an entire period is sinking in.

Barzal’s talent screams center. Only a Puckin idiot would want to see him on the wing.

Talking about the season. He's where he is for these payoffs. Not gonna' change now.

People just believe he's a god at center. He isn't.

Eberle and Lee made Trotz do that because Barzal has been hurting their numbers.

Ebs and Lee are now coaching?

I did not know, but I'll surely remember you said that.

I love Pager, you guys got a good one there. Contract is still a bit much IMO, but he’s a solid player.

3 draft picks to get someone to center Koma and Brass......insane.

They’re really in charge of everything and pull all of the strings. Trotz is just a front.

Not a big Lou fan, and the lay back and wait hockey the Isles play isn't the future of the NHL. That said, Dubas "all offense" style isn't the way to a cup.

The entire article is a cop-out for Dubas. He got held hostage and overpaid for 2 skaters with very little clutch and sweat in their games. Dubas owns the Nylander and Marner contracts, along with Tavares and Matthews. Not much left to build some defense.

If he doesn't shop Nylander and Marner ASAP and build defense and toughness into the team, he's a damn fool.

Winning isn’t important that comes with luck. I’m not looking for wins from my favorite team my only expectation is good corsi.

Funny how Lou turned the Leafs around quickly upon his arrival from total losers to the POs immediately. They have been stuck in mediocrity and PO failure since he left.
In contrast since his arrival to Long Island the Islanders have grown as a team, gained confidence, and made the POs immediately. This on top of changing the culture of a team that was the laughing stock of the league for a decade.

Funny Lou left the Leafs and they are a wait till next year laughing stock of the league

Plus, I'm not even sure that idiot, Tanner, got his facts right. Wasn't Bailey signed to his current contract by Snow? I think the theory was that Bailey was Tavares's best friend on the team, so Tavares surely wouldn't abandon his best friend, right?

Winning doesn't count if the team plays boring, trap hockey and relies on its goaltender. Do I have that right?
