So, my friend whom is a season ticket NJD holder says D'Agostini is useless. He skates around and never seems to have the puck and is bad defensively. He also mentioned he never saw his "speed" because he never used it effectively being that he barely touches the puck. - IronCity
Sounds like Travis Zajac in some cases. |

then he dropped to 25 the next year in the Q.
Dea went from 17 to 45 in one season. - IronCity
His shooting percentage was off the charts this year and he had a bunch of powerplay goals, may have been a fluke. Who knows though, maybe if he packs on like....35 pounds he can be effective. |

He was also used terribly on the 4th line on a team that blew ass... |

I was talking about Talbot dropping so much in goals.
Dea went up from 17 to 45. I am fairly excited for him. I like the idea that he is only 160 pounds. If he was 6 foot 3 225 and put up that many goals it would be not as exciting. Scoring 45 while being a boy playing against boys shows you have some skill. Although he is about a year older than Drouin or Mackinnon. |

Good point. They do have two 4th lines. |

I know Kunitz was. Not sure aboot Dupers.
I guess one of the reasons I am not excited about D'Agostini is because every one of these experiments with Shero's low risk medium/high rewards never work out. |

Craig Adams was a good low risk move that panned out. Mark Eaton ate some minutes at D last year. |

I think Eaton wasn't really a risk. We already knew who he was.
Craig Adams seemed like he was already an established player.
I am more referring to the Borque, O'reilly, Conner, that other small guy that got pushed off the puck. I feel like everyone is waiting for D'Agostini to return to his 20goal form and that isn't going to happen. |

It would be nice if a couple WBS players could make the jump into the bottom 6. Who among the baby Pens are the best defensively and on the PK?
If Niskanen is traded I'll be sooooo happy. |

Dupuis was undrafted... His stats really jumped after his draft year. |
