It's so sad to see. He had so much promise before the injuries and setbacks. It's completely robbed him of his most important developmental years, and I really don't think he'll ever amount to more than a fringe NHLer at this point.

I like Zary a lot but I want to see him on the first line with Pelletier in the A.

Phillips has been the best of the RW candidates.

Mackey good. I hope he watches a lot of what Tanev is doing and applies that to his own game.

"All-in" isn't really all-in. There's still an expected value calculation that includes the future. It's just the present is more heavily weighted. If you think you'll set him back permanently by losing a year at centre, it's not necessarily worth it. You might get your investment of a year in the AHL back as soon as next season.

Hell, I'd even rate Solovyov as better than Valimaki at this point. Just out of curiosity, I went to check the summer polls

6. Valimaki

8. Mackey

...


26. Solovyov
27. Klapka

LMAO.

Stauffer suggesting there should have been a hooking penalty on McDavid there was laughable - literally no contact.

Then a slew-foot tackle at the other end "that may have been a penalty too"

What an idiot

If both Kylly and Tanev aren't available to start the season, I don't see why Mackey and Stone don't start the season on the big club.

I was hoping he could do what Kylington did last year but that was wishful thinking. Continued to underwhelm in the AHL after being sent down, whereas Kylington was always a good AHL player.
