Most valuable to their team not best individual season.

Take Hubredeau off Florida still a top team in the league.

Take Matthews off Toronto they're probably sitting at like 8th.

Take Mcdavid or Gaudreau off their respective teams and they aren't even in the playoffs.

- DirtyDan

Doubtful.

They're better off without him than say Edmonton if they didn't have Mcdavid. Or Matthews off the Leafs or Kirill off Minnesota


Florida has 2 other players playing at ppg or higher and Ekblad nearly a ppg player.

Edmonton has Mcdavid Drais and then its a massive drop off.

57 points versus 72 points

For those keeping track of the bet

Reinhart over a ppg player

Florida is so deep

Here's their shot for a free goalie with upside

- Hank Balling


It’s arguable about how much “upside” he has
He’ll be 25 early next season
But he’d also be free, so sure, whatever
Just wouldn’t expect too much

He leads the league in assists. How many guys are scoring without him dishing the puck and without his play-making abilities?

More than if Mcdavid wasn't dishing the puck in Edmonton.

Then you read that wrong because I never once said I wanted him in Buffalo.

It's close but I don't see Toronto or Edmonton falling off the cliff you say they do without McDerp or Fatthews. Nor Florida without Huderdeau. However, my rationale is based of the fact that Barkov was injured for 1/4 of the season and Florida didn't skip a beat, and that's because Huberdeau.

I'd say if Marner or Draisaitl were injured it would impact their teams more than McDerp and Fatthews.

Is your brain alright?

You proved my point.... Florida can lose one of their best players and be completely fine.

Not a single player on that team deserves MVP honors just because of how stacked it is.

Would not be a great idea to block one of JJ or Quinn.
- DirtyDan

Why would he block one of them? Someone lower on the performance totem pole would be replaced instead.
He might not repeat the production of the year, but I’ll bet he repeats the work and effort he has put in this year. He grabbed the ball and ran with the chance Q gave him last year, now this year he has taken it to another level. There are no passengers on the Panthers this year, as there’s someone similarly as good as you sitting in the press box waiting for a shot in the lineup.
Sabres have some talented players, they will only become stacked by adding one piece at a time. KA should be adding all the good players that he can. If Marchment (or any new addition) blocks JJ or Quinn, then that probably would only mean that they just aren’t yet ready to beat him out of a spot.

Dodgers pull Kershaw six outs away from a perfect game. We aren't allowed to have any fun anymore. Can't celebrate too much, can't do anything!

Pitch count be damned but how do you pull a pitcher 6 outs away from a perfect game???

Hopefully he stays right where he is.

I could see some team making him an “overpaid” offer that he can’t refuse
