a much more similar scenario is;

eberle, Schultz and klefbom

and no.

I'm really liking the potential (people will cling to that word) I'm seeing with our D...
Schultz, Petry, Klefbom, Nurse, Smid, Ference, Belov, Marincin, Musil, Gernat etc.

Gardiner > Schultz (arguably)
Rielly > Klefbom (easy)
Eberle > Kadri (durrrr)

It is pretty even. Even though neither team would make that swap hahaha.
- Steven_Dean

Umm in what world is Gardiner better than Schultz?

Eberle shot out of his mind when in 11-12, evidently at an unsustainable rate. It should be noted that over the last 24 games of this season he did shoot at 16.7%, not too far off from his ridiculous 18.9%. So it's not like he was a 12% shooter the entire year. It'll be interesting to see what he does next year.

No poop and many forget that the drop this year was due to his (frank)ing hand being broken... Eberle if healthy snipes upthe league this year... book it...

1. The Nashville Predators offer Shea Weber to the Toronto Maple Leafs for.....

Doesn't matter, no

2. The Columbus Blue Jackets offer Ryan Johansen to the Phildelphia Flyers for Brayden Schenn and a 2nd round draft pick.

Hellllllll (frank)ing no

3. The Vancouver Canucks offer Ryan Kesler to the Washington Capitals for Marcus Johansson and Troy Brouwer

Entertain-able at least; still no

The Matrix maybe, He Isnt and wont be. #sarcasim

"If someone offered me the offensive brilliance that is Ovechkin vs, let's say, Jonathan Toews, I'd pick Toews, because he's the kind of guy who wins cups."

LOL. It helps having pretty much the perfect roster around you. Saying "Toews is a guy who wins cups" ignores that he plays with: Patrick Kane, Patrick Sharp, Marian Hossa, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook, Corey Crawford, et al. If OV was on CHI and Toews was on WSH, OV would have 2 cup rings. You might take Toews over Ovechkin, but not because "Toews wins Cups and OV doesn't." You'd take Toews because he's a two-way center with elite defensive and offensive skills.

I agree to an extent with him. I'd take Toews over Ovey because his two way play and physicality is what wins cups for some teams

Amazing how the best blogger on this site(Yost) is a huge fan of underlying numbers and bases a lot of what he does on stats, but it's crazy talk when someone brings them up. Ridiculous

Somewhat, but some UFA`s that are still out there should be considered:

Morrow, Grabo, Cleary, Hainsey, Bryz, Gagne, Murray, Wellwood.
- Byfuglien Ate Me

I'd like Cleary. Yost says Morrow was a 44% possession player this year. Murray can't skate. Hainsey isn't a fit with 6 LHD already. bryz sucks. gagne sucks. wellwood is too small, edm has enough 5'10 guys. grabo'd be good.

I thought Morrow to Buff is what has been unfolding the last while??

are you screaming for some attention here bro?

alright, here's your props for the day.

I think 'nugeishuge' is a good and knowledgeable hockeybuzz poster.

someone tell me what they know about Rob Klinkhammer's season

I am crying for attention. Fancy stats are ludicrous unless Yost is using them.

Eberle shot out of his mind when in 11-12, evidently at an unsustainable rate. It should be noted that over the last 24 games of this season he did shoot at 16.7%, not too far off from his ridiculous 18.9%. So it's not like he was a 12% shooter the entire year.

Wasn't Eberle playing with a broken hand, sprained groin, a fractured vertebrae, herpes, and mono though?

I'd like Cleary. Yost says Morrow was a 44% possession player this year. Murray can't skate. Hainsey isn't a fit with 6 LHD already. bryz sucks. gagne sucks. wellwood is too small, edm has enough 5'10 guys. grabo'd be good.
- TheNugeIsHuge

I take morrow on a short term contract on this team before anyone in that group.
he's the best fit imo

What did you just say about my Buddy Ilya Nikolayevich Bryzgalov??

edit: Cleary would be a good fit...

When healthy - Eberle is MONEY... always has been always will be...

I went to high school with a 'insider'.
give me the deep amounts of respect I deserve please.

I'd dislike all of those save Grabo. Sarcasm?
- TheNugeIsHuge

yeah it's his "cheerfully bad suggestions" shtick. He wants people to agree with him so he can flip and make fun of how naive they are.

It's a good bit.

that explains it!!!!!
- hugefemale dog77

Exactly! If it weren't for the broken hand, sprained groin, a fractured vertebrae, herpes, and mono, he would have been shooting at 19-20% all year.

IMO-I would invite Brule to a try out

No poop... He was injured and still tied Hall in goals FFS... Eberle

dont get me wrong but Hall and Eberle compliment each other... Ebs is just more of a surgeon when shooting the puck
