We're at a fork in the road here.
Will patience prevail?
And will these guys that they've been talking about and grooming in a slow process coming up, is it going to work?
Are we going to finally see it next year?
And or is he going to make a bold move?
And like I said, I don't know what the price tag for what Robert Thomas was, but I'll tell you right now, I would have offered two first-rounders.
I would have offered Kasper, and I probably would have offered Finney.
yeah as well to get now all of a sudden you alleviate pressure off of Dylan Larkin because let's let's be open and honest I would say if you look at the 32 teams you would say is Dylan Larkin a first line center you'd say he is but he's in the bottom half of first line centers that are offered compared to all those other teams that's not being disrespectful that's just being flat out honest I think you would what slot him in Murr probably in the like the 18 to 22 range as far as
first line center in the league yeah i would agree with that look look at i don't know man if he's surrounded by a good team like he's a fucking awesome player and he plays hard like i i'm not saying i'm not saying that let's go through the list of david mckinnon barkov eichel
I would probably put, if you had to make a bet right now, do you think that Leo Carlson surpasses him, who's in Anaheim?
And that's what I said two, three years ago, and the fucking fans want to hang me on the fucking cross!
Because then all of a sudden... He was actually available.
And I understand it would have been an aggressive move.
But Stevie has to do something come...
deadline or not deadline uh free agency slash draft like something has to change about the dynamic of that roster because if they go in next year and it's kind of like like yan says hoping on these prospects to pop that that could be end up being his demise and i'm going to read you a list now and i want you to tell me and like i don't think i'm being too critical connor mcdavid clearly the
a top first line center.
McKinnon, Dreisaitl, Barkov, Crosby, Eichel, Matthews, Braden Point, Shifley, Suzuki, Hughes, Robert Thomas, Aho, Nico Heischer.
They got Larkin at 15 on that list, but do you have Stutzel ahead of them?
I put them in the same.
Oh, there you go.
