I think so. Although except Pacioretty there aren't a lot of finishers on that team. You could consider Bourque in that category also but he hasn't shown a lot yet (except last year's playoffs).

Galchenyuk should pop 25 this year.

We're all hoping for it. But he'll need to shoot more if he wants to do that...he's looking for the pass far too often.

True enough. Then again they were pretty much handcuffed.

any team that trades a superstar in his prime is handcuffed. and the fact that you have to back more than 20 years to find a situation where the team moving the player got a great return kills your entire theory.

and assuming that Colorado wouldn't have won those Cups without that trade isn't a given. their top-2 centres would have Sakic-Lindros in their prime.

I know Subban wants to and should get paid but that extra million or two a season could prevent him from winning the cup.

Forsberg is my all-time favorite. But I remember seeing Lindros in Ottawa in a PHI-OTT game and for each and every Lindros shift, there was a fear vibe in the whole arena, something I never watched anywhere else in any sport. He was dominating.

yeah that's kind of my point. and the difference between a guy like Lindros and Forsberg. when teams played Philly, Lindros was the focal point. he was the guy who terrified you and who you knew you couldn't stop.

I guess, but every time Forsberg was in the playoffs he scared the (frank) out of teams.

Injuries wrecked Lindros more than Forsberg I'd say. Put Sakic on Lindros's team and see what he would have done.
