Bang-on, and I would add to that: even WITH MSL he wasn't on par with Ovechkin.
This is a truly gifted offensive forward but he's not a diamond in the rough.
If you asked me if I'd rather have 1 Stamkos for 10 million or 2 50 point guys for 5. I'm taking the two. He isn't a game changer, and if all he brings is offence then you can easily replace that same amount for 10 million.
