Good point with the pp time.

I'm thinking though:

Dahlin 60 points next year - samuelsson 30 points
Dahlin 65 points 2024 - samuelsson 35 points.


Sky's the limit for most of this young team.
Ulf's kid should/ could be around for a decade, 40 points is not out of reach IMO

- Boss34


That's definitely the trajectory. You'd hope Dahlin explodes in 2024 as the forward group catches up to him.

He was so fast the puck couldn't keep up with him.
- BeadyEyedDouche




That was about right. He was one of my favorites to watch, but it was infuriating how often he'd make some super move only to lose it a second before the shot.

We got the draft picks, but sadly, nowhere near enough cap space.

Yeah would be a tough move. Imagine him and Allen in the backfield together, the plays you could design. And Deebo has a pretty good arm to.

I don't even want to think about it, it would be insane, it just won't happen unfortunately.

That was a singular performance for sure. I wonder why he was used so sparingly in the first half of the season.

Is it fun for them? Serious question.

Yes, because they hate running.

Question

A team can only move up 6 spots
Is that correct ?

I think the shootout will be scrapped one of these years but I absolutely think that this kind of stuff will get addressed this offseason. It has become cartoonish and beyond the spirit of what a shootout should be.
- Slump Buster



What do you think shootouts should be?

Personally I like when the players put on some moves. It makes something that is so pointless at least watchable.

Imagine every guys coming down and either your shooting or making a little deke to go back hand or forehand. literally 3 options. It makes for a very boring event. Let em dangle the goalie out of their jocks, goalie has a stick for a reason, they choose not to poke check.

The issue isn't about movement, it is about lack of movement. You can dangle or go side to side all you want. Once you slow down that's when it gets goofy.

I think you should have to stay between the circles and maintain speed.

Semi agree with you, something to fix that would be like, put both guys(shooter and defender) at the blue line. D-man can't move till puck is touched. Bu then its not a shootout.

They really should just scrap it and extend OT.
