Elite skill can be a great counter. I have no idea how strong he is. He did look like a perimeter player to me. Kane isn't that strong but he can elude a lot of the pressure and hits. I'm fine either way with TT. I also look to package him for a great deal, but I think he can succeed on this team, too

Kane has gained a lot of strength since coming into the league TC.

That's true. But he was still really effective right away. I would like to get someone touggh and skilled to be on TT's line. That would help him. We will see soon. I think he gets an audition at the end of the year

Meh. Seen too many hyped next great thing become nothing but a fleeting memory to have any hope for them. If they get you a proven NHL player, then send them packing.

Teravainen will be the next Krivokrasov!

Definitely a bust. But he did score some huge OT goals against the Avs.

Watching an old Gretzky game on nhl network. It is amazing how much he could do with his hockey sense. This is a guy with no physical tools. Slow as hell. Weaker than most. Imagine if he had that long reach of lemieux? The speed of Bure? The steroids of Lindros? . Or the nastiness of Howe?

Screw TT. I would be happy if they could find someone to play with Kane.

They were showing the finals from the 96 canada cup last night. Were those games physical. The US hit gretzky every chance they got and neutralized him. Course it was later in his career but still.

Eller is definitely a player I like. I always like bigger deals. What happened to Tinordi? I haven't seen that many Habs games this year. He looked solid last year. I think he is in the minors now. He was a guy I liked when JJ mentioed that huge rumor last year

While Toews has been good with Sharp and Hossa, hopefully TT could come in soon and reunite Kane with Toews

Pining a lot of hope on an inexperienced player to play on the top 2 lines on a Cup contender.

Major overpayment, especially the Lalonde part

Eller's younger, bigger, cheaper, and less douchey.

TT, Pirri, and the rights to Lalonde for Eller, Tinordi, and a 5th.

Kesler is better. By an extremely large margin. Eller kinda blows. He has Bickelitis. Very inconsistent.
