Are Crosby, Kopitar, Backstrom and Kessel just hitting their prime? No.. they've been in it for a long while and it would be surprising if their best seasons have already happened.

I think you mean "wouldn't" be surprising, but I agree with your post.
Not sure which roster I would prefer at gun point, but it is incredible to me that the selling point for Edmo is still "potential". My god, they still cling to the hope that the core is actually better than they have shown for how many years now?
