Toffoli has 24 points in 49 NHL games, and hasn't been able to stay in the Kings' line-up because he has problems playing a full 200 ft game.

This silliness needs to stop. Stop overvaluing other team's prospects and crapping on ours. Toffoli is 6 months older than Sven and is on a nearly identical development path. "The only issue Toffoli has ever had is skating" just isn't true.
Ugh, so tiresome. If fans of this team can't have patience with one young, very promising prospect - how are they going to survive the 3-4 year (if we're lucky) rebuild process?
