Around the League 2019-2024 Edition

A little tidbit from Dom

>>Hutson is top 10 in defenseman Net Rating for the season, but he obviously looks even better since Nov. 26. That was his first game away from Savard and his first game taking over the top power play. Here are the defensemen Net Rating ranks since:
  1. Cale Makar: +18.4
  2. Zach Werenski: +16.2
  3. Lane Hutson: +13.6
Hutson is already a superstar.
 
How about them Blues? They stole a first line forward and a top pairing d-man from the Oilers via offer sheets
Holloway was never a first line forward in Edmonton. He was a 3rd line guy for the most part. He's done well this season but he was never that good with the Oilers and I wouldn't have lost any sleep over not matching that offer sheet.

Broberg, however, was a guy that the Oilers needed to keep. Their blue line is mid on a good night. They have Ekholm, who's great but he's older, gets banged up, and is just one guy. Bouchard is good with the puck, very average without it. Nurse is dead from the neck up, and Kulak is Kulak. Broberg's offer sheet should have been matched because the organization has no one as good in the pipeline. On a team trying to win now, it was stupid to let him go. Holloway? Meh. Forwards like him are easy to replace. But Broberg, not so much.

A team with goaltending as shitty as the Oilers have needs to have excellent defensemen but they don't.

He's gonna have a very hard time getting back up to 100pt rantanen anymore i think. He's never getting those super elite minutes anymore and his per minute production isn't down due to on ice shooting luck either.
