We don't really need another left shooting injury prone centre, though. I don't know how anyone looks at Hertl in any way as comparable to an Eichel acquisition. Who wants to pay Hertl's next contract too?

Would much rather acquire Forsberg. Cost will be similar or less.

Hertl's only season with more than 22 goals came with an absurd (~20%) shooting percentage. If you adjust it to his next best rate then he scored under 30 goals that season too.

His play driving stats are better than Monahans but the results really arent at all. I dont see any advantage to this move.
