I'd give it to McDavid if he ends up within 15 of Panarin. Not sure if the voters would look at it that way.

Imagine the numbers if Eichel had the other Kane to help him.

good point...Eichel didn't register his first assist until the 14 game of the season

Good Morning Everyone,


does it seem like Panarin has been cooling off a little bit? (Though that might be a team thing) he hasn't been pumping out the points on my fantasy league as much last couple of weeks which sucks cause were in playoffs now.

Good read. Eichel is incredible but I wouldn't put him anywhere near the same class as McDavid. I truly believe the only player that should even be mentioned in comparison to McDavid is Crosby.

It's been a crazy strong year for rookies. Larkin and the Ghost came in flying out of nowhere! And even Panarin was a complete unknown.

Please don't overlook Byron Froese from the TML. 50gp 2g 3a 5points. This guy deserves a trophy for getting this far in hockey life with the name Byron. I feel like he should be sippin tea of playing Polo or Croquet or some poop.

Dealing with a finance company to get a billing error fixed this morning. Did an early termination on my wife's lease, and the dealer didn't make the proper payment to close out the old lease.

I'm on my sixth call to the finance company, after my fourth call to the dealer. Tell me why I'm the one doing this work, and they're not talking to one another?

i'll try not to next time....oh, and one more thing...

McDavid is awesome plain and simple, but keep an eye on Eichel...give him a watch over a few games...he's a tremendous talent

I'm not talking about her - I'm talking about the dealer and the finance co. They're the ones who effed up the account.

Oh yeah Eichel is amazing. He'll be a top 10 player in the league. Wish we had him on the Leafs. I catch more Oilers games than Sabres right now cuz of time zone and Leaf games. Was dissapointed with his Flu the other day especially after hearing Babcock wnated to see what happenned matching Nylander vs. Eichel. Coulda been a much different outcome there.

And with winning that game against Buffalo. At the rate Edmonton's going the Leafs can't afford ANY success down the stretch.

IMO It should be:

1. McD
2. Ghost Bear
3. Eichel

The Bread Man is talented, but he's 50 years old and playing with a seasoned group of Stanley Cup champs.

And honestly that's fine. Calder means little to nothing to me. As far as which player has helped improve their team the most I'd put Eichel up there. Of course, we had nowhere to go but up, but it's been great seeing him get better as the year has gone on.

Get him another good winger next year, and with a year under Sam and his belts, they could explode next season.
