There is no way we will have 2 better wingers than him on the team. He might still play in the second line for balance but he’s a first line winger.

That was a fun research.
Tkachuk-Gaudreau did it last year.
Kane-Debrincat before that.
Alfredsson-Heatley
Hossa-Kovalchuk
Naslund-Bertuzzi
Kovalev-Jagr
And that’s pretty much it since 2000. None of those duo won the Cup those seasons.

When Bedard turns out a winger?
Never said he wasn't but he's becoming Suzuki's winger and Suzuki will not be too line center for much longer. Couple of years I think.

I know the rules. None justify not using it. The Habs immediately traded for Monahan as soon as they knew Price would be on LTIR. There is no way they won’t use that LTIR space again next year.There are several prohibitive rules once you do so.

Roy will not score 40. Having 2 40+ goal scorers, especially 2 wingers, is exceedingly rare.
I mean use it to go over the cap like TB did
Roy will need to adjust his game , doubt he plays on the top 6

He might, he has all the tools for a good complimentary too 6 players. Hockey sense, good defensively, good on the forecheck, can pass and shoot.

I would love to have Bedard, and a better center than Suzuki, and a better winger than Caufield. Doesn’t make those guys 2nd liners.

It's going to happen for us. Especially if we win Bedard. Better players make 30 goal scorers 40 goal scorers. Be positive!

Holy shit. What is wrong with hockey fans.
They will be OUR second line. Doesn't make them second liners on shit teams.
Come on now
