Jakes breakout actually came in the lockout shortened season
- YuenglingJagr

I don't pay much attention to this. It was a half season. Jake was one of half the players in the league who went over seas and kept up on his game. Others stayed home and did nothing. We didn't even have a training camp. Not exactly tough competition from everyone around the league.

LOL okay. Are you going to let the Blackhawks know their cup doesn't count or should I?

First time seeing it this morning via the two short clips on page 1. With no context at all, it looks to me like a really poorly timed attempt at a hip check. :shrug:

I don't even feel like it was worth a minor penalty, let alone a 5 minute major.

He's having a pretty good year. He keeps it up its a 45-50 pt year. Resign him but don't break the bank. He's not an untouchable in trade. I don't see him as a foundation piece. But he is proving to be a valuable piece
- Just5

You didn't answer my question. When did everyone get on board to resigning him? My posts are responses to a fellow buzzer who doesn't think Schenn is anything special.

Agreed. I thought the game was in Montreal for a second. Dumb play but not a five minute major.

I keep trying to convince myself it was a good deal but I think I'm jumping ship. I think it might have been the first opportunity Hexy had to clear cap space and may have panicked a bit when he actually realized what kind of cap situation Homer left him with. Nobody could have predicted he would have been able to move Pronger's contract or trade Vinny, or any of the other moves he made. But to be fair, we can't really judge the deal 100% for another few years.

Very predictable in the cap world.

I'll let the Hawks know they're the best team in Hockey regardless of competition.

I liked that they played with some emotion last night and overcame some difficult officiating, but if they were playing a less snakebitten team the discipline probably would've come back to bite them.

Voracek has scored points at a higher rate over his career than Brayden Schenn. Voracek has done it far more consistently than Schenn and it's really not that close.

I'm far more willing to give him the benefit of the doubt than Brayden Schenn.

- johndewar


Wait...people are actually thinking that Schenn is on par with Voracek?

You got robbed.

I hope the team replaces that stick you smashed in the tunnel.

I think, before we can proceed with this, that we must debate the definition of "anything special" as we have with "elite".

I don't think the person I was responding to was implying that. At least, I didn't think they were.

I think they were trying to give me some perspective on Schenn.

Why? Because my profile name is SuperSchennbros, so automatically I have to be in love with both players?

I think I will find the closest bridge instead and proceed to throw myself from it. nothing too high though. I want to cause a scene, but I don't want to actually injure myself

I wouldn't be surprised if Schenn is traded, signs long term or signs short term. His underlying numbers have never been as good as his point totals. He's good on the power play, but only has 16 ES points in 46 games this season.
- PhillySportsGuy


Simmonds only has 19 and has played two more games. The Flyers don't score a lot at ES.
