Yahoo sports ranking top 25 guys of each position. Tyler Myers sneaked in at #25

Kane our only player at #22 LW

- Fattony1187

Kane should be higher on that list.

Scott Hartnett at 34 years old ahead of him?
Abdelkader is not better. And I'd rather have Kane than Tatar.

Although, looking at this list sort of puts it in to perspective that we didn't get a superstar in Kane. We traded for probably the 15th- 20th best Left winger, and paid a lot

I never thought kane was a superstar. But approximately the 20th best LW is still a bonified first line LW in the league. Can't get the best EVERYWHERE

Lemiuex will pan out IMO to be a decent player.

It also all depends on your opinion of another player involved

Rick Nash got traded for a similar return (potentially) if Lemiuex and one of Armia or their 1st pans out.

That's the 3rd best LW'er

We didn't give up any superstars either though, quantity is bothersome but playing with house money as they say. I think most of us expect him to get better, health is probably the biggest question mark going forward.

We haven't gotten the best anywhere yet. We didn't even get the best player in this past draft.

When he's healthy and not a distraction, he's probably higher than most of the guys on that list. It's whether he's going to do that here consistently

The Buffalo News reports Percy Harvin required "plenty of detailed instruction on how to run routes" in OTAs.
Per reporter Vic Carucci, Harvin "made progress, but needs to make more." Carucci expects Harvin to open the season as the Bills' No. 3 receiver behind Sammy Watkins and Robert Woods, "limiting" his touches. Harvin has never been gifted at the technical aspects of receiving, but remains one of the league's top athletes. He'll continue to be utilized in a gadget manner in addition to his conventional targets this season.


Another Bum

They won't need him to run routes.

Sweeps, screens, reverses and returns

That's it. Watkins will take the double coverage and it will be a nightmare to cover Harvin and Clay.


.....now they just need someone to get them the ball

Avs management like the assets that they acquired in the O'Reilly blockbuster trade.

Zadorov told The Denver Post that he and Grigorenko really like the trade as well.

"We really liked the trade," Zadorov said.

Wow GARTH, I wonder who really liked the trade.

It's notable that there is not a single USA defender anywhere near Crosby in that pic.
