He's been a bonafide starter for a decade? With a Vezina, Olympic MVP and on the all-time wins list.

I'm not gonna go round and round about him but Nuevirth hasn't done a thing in the NHL yet. The test will be when we are actually playing for something

No knock to miller ( ) But Nuevirth is playing pretty damn good his 2nd season. I seem to have more faith in him than I did with Miller . Sorry.

He is playing good. I have said from the get go he will be here a while.

But if Joel Armia gets called up and scores a goal, I'm not gonna go "Vanek who?"

It's too early

He's about where(maybe a tad ahead as Miller only had 66 starts) Miller was at the same age. They look very similar between the pipes.


Only difference is the team in front of him Blows.

I do what I can.


And he is an elite sniper because he scored 40 in 58 while playing in the QMJHL.

He could be better than Reinhart offensively.

He will more than likely be a better goal scorer but in all honesty, he will be a winger on this team.

McEichel = no room at center for him.

IMO it's Girgensons that's moved if we get McDavid or Eichel.

Reinhart and Grigo down the middle

I changed it.


I'm leaning more towards Eichel as I view him as Toews type player.

It's possible we could have 5-6 centers on the first 2 lines. Centers playing wing is always a good thing IF they can score like a winger .

Unfortunately Girgs is better suited to play 3rd line center than Grigs is or ever will be. IMO Grigorenko could be an AO lite(goal scoring wise) on the wing.

Either player we get in the draft, I will be 2-3 years older before he is a allstar . IMO.

I know a lot of teams are trending to have two centers on the ice most of the time, for faceoffs. I would be curious to see how that pans out for us down the road.

And like you said.

They finish last, 20% chance at McDavid 100% chance at Eichel.
