Because Provorov isn’t a really good player. He was once a young player with great potential but never lived up to it.

Philly has put together terrible teams the last few years. Put Makar on that team and he is going to look like half the player he is.

Babcock will bring him back to life.

My wife is Irish, that puts her below Blacks and Asians. It's true, we saw it on a show titled "Blazing Saddles".

hahaha had to get that in there, didnt you?

Also, Makar would be elite on any team. Way too talented and skilled to think otherwise. His plus/minus might take a hit on another team....but he'd still be a top D-man producer.

It totally makes sense for you to say that because most of your opinions surrounding Hockey are stuck in the past

Agreed. Same as EK65 on San José.

Haha, yeah... I do believe it though. I'm not saying Provorov is going to be a top 5 Dman in the league but he has the tools to be a top 30 D man, which is a great asset for your 2LD.

For the record, I think Makar at half the player he is right now is still a Norris candidate.

I don't think that is true at all. I probably have a middle ground opinion, somewhere between yourself and grinder

Ha, I didn't mean Neanderthal past. I meant like.. 5-7 years ago past.

Target Laine
Provorov is a really good player
Debrincat is a PP specialist
Babcock is a really good coach

These are all opinions from like 2015-2016
