    Zegras is not worth the rumoured price Anaheim wants.  For reinbacher or guhle, they can kick rocks and keep their one dimensional player. 

     

    The rumoured price is insane.  How Anaheim thinks they can get a king's ransom for a floating winger who's best season is 20ish goals and 60ish points, and has already gained a reputation for not being coachable is beyond me.  Seems he'd be worth a low 1st round pick at best.  Watching these playoffs and seeing how important the physicality Florida couples with skill has been in their success, I don't want a player like Zegras.  If I'm going to give up significant assets, I want a guy more like Slaf...strength and scoring in the same package.

  2. Berube is a good coach, but he's not going to be able to turn crummy D-men into good D-men by tweaking their positioning a little, he doesn't have a Benjamin Button potion to administer to John Tavares, and he's not going to be able to magically give Mitch Marner the balls to visit the middle of the offensive zone during the playoffs.

    Or he was never going to be more than he is. An nhler but a 3rd 4th liner. Maybe development, maybe not.

     

    I'm in this camp....I believe that he was never worthy of his draft position, and it was a screw-up of epic proportions by Bergevin and his scout team.  How much better would we be with Brady Tkachuk in our top 6?  Or Quinn Hughes on our blueline?  Sickens me.

  4. Wifi being hurt yet again is so disheartening.  We finally get a player with some toughness, but he appears injury prone and probably shouldn't fight very often if at all from here on out to prevent further shoulder issues.

    -Harris just isn’t physical enough and doesn’t bring the offence you’d want from a non-physical dman. May be a bad night, but was really disappointed in him and how easily he was pushed around.

     

    I see this from him damn near every game he plays.  The way he chased the puck carrier into the corner, and then halfway to the blueline along the boards to take himself out of position on the Backlund goal was frustrating.  I'm hoping that our abundance of D prospects pushes him out of the picture sooner than later.

    summer buyout

     

    Even better.  He can go float in Liiga from here on out....a definitive stamp on Bergevin and his scouting team being complete idiots for drafting him.
