MindzEye will love this statement

Anderson is the most disappointing hab I've had the displeasure of watching in the last decade. Total head case like Drouin.

Crazy thing is that Gallagher & Anderson both actually managed to stay healthy last year, with only 9 missed games combined between the two of them.

And yet the two of them still only combined for 25 goals & 51 points. Yikes. Gotta figure the Habs might try and Robidas the remainder of their contracts at some point.

I tried warning you all about Anderson at the time. Paying a guy like the random outlier career season they had in their mid-to-late 20’s is going to be their minimum level of production going forward is a recipe for disaster.
 
Frenemy still defends it and says they were geniuses to ditch Galchenyuk, then got rid of Domi at just the right time, and as of a couple months ago was arguing that it's better to have a "warrior" like Anderson locked up than to lose a bum like Domi for free. Anderson plays tough, like a man, puts people through the boards.

I have no issue with Bedard but expecting a 5`9" to carry your team is expecting alot

He's small but I don't think the difference between franchise player and not is 2 inches and 10 pounds.

The top 5 scorers in the NHL this season were:

5'11 180
6'0 200
6'1 193
6'0 173
6'1 195

Bedard is still 18 and listed at 5'10 185. Same size as Kucherov really.
 
Next draft is where Chicago gets Bedard his W, my understanding is it's very very top end F heavy, and iassume CHI is picking 4-8

I also would not rule them out making a run at Leon.

I get why they didn't want to pay Domi, but they should have kept Domi.

Yeah, that's the type of move getting a Bedard type prospect puts you in the position to take a shot at.

If he opts to leave Edmonton. I know the buzz is SJS, and they can outbid anyone, but they are significantly further down the rebuild path than Chicago. Hawks will have the space, and i think Leon is probably quite comfortable being a second Batman to a Connor, or at least he knows if he is or not.

Some of it will depend on how this season goes. If Celebrini has a stand out rookie season their rebuild path looks a few years shorter.

Rebuilding teams with cap space are auditioning for him this year though, definitely.

Are Will Smith and Macklin absolutely definitely C going forward? If so who moves to the W long term?
