The issue with Seabrook's deal isn't how good he is playing now, it is more how good he will be in the second half of that deal. His mobility could become an issue and the minutes he has played may really start to take a toll on him. He has had some concussions and was in rough shape after game 7 versus the St Louis Blues in the 2016 playoffs. The extra rest this summer should help him. When Seabrook is on his game, he is a great D and one of the most well rounded in the NHL.

Even as he's slowed a little now....he still lead the team in icetime/PP mins and 2nd in PK. The guy has been a big part of 3 cups and a gold medal. His Corsi # isnt the greatest for 2016...so he must suck I guess ( but for those that care he carried TVR/Svedburg/Gustaffson for the year. )

This isn't for you James, I would rather not get into it...your evaluation of Seabrook is about as good as your evaluation of Rundblad. IMO

He's overpaid now, sure. But I love how these analysts act like any boss in the real world wouldn't reward an employee for success. Yes, Seabrook, Toews, and Kane all got paid more than they are worth because they won 3 cups. But guess what..... THEY WON 3 CUPS. Holy hell I wish my team overpaid my 3x cup winners.

Please, turnovers aren't even a real stat. Guess what has to happen before you turn the puck over? You have to have it.


There is no explaining away why PK isn't on the team without assuming because the team is managed by hockey professionals they are infallible. It's a horrible mistake that likely won't matter because the team is awesome anyways.

So what you're saying is 'having the puck and turning it over is better than not having the puck'. You are the most arrogant blogger on this site bar none. You should go read French's blog, your head will explode.

I was wondering if anyone could post or suggest some really bad music? Haven't seen a blog from this guy in a couple of days. Thanks in advance.
