36 goals in 36 games in his first year of professional hockey.

You get this kid playing on a line with one of the best playmakers in the game (krejci) for a full season, you easily get 30+ goals for frankie

- TylerSeguin19

He put up a 17 goal per 82 game pace in the NHL last year lol. I guess he'll just double that though right.

He will. I know Leaf fans are only blind to see what type of talent their young players have, but other teams in the NHL have talent too. I guarantee you've never seen Vatrano play in your life. If you did you'd be able to see what I'm talking about

Nobody wants to invest more than a 2 year term into any Staal cause they're all trash and overrated by fans. Backes is a special type player with the elements he brings to a team
- TylerSeguin19


I dunno, man...

E.Staal has

1 Stanley Cup
1 Olympic Gold
1 World Championship Gold
1 World Championship Silver
4 All Star Game Appearances
1 All Star Game MVP
One of only about 100 players in NHL history to score 100 points in a single season.


David Backes has

1 Olympic Silver
1 All Star Game Appearance

Blues were 1 game away from the stanley cup finals this year, and Backes was 2nd on the team in playoff points. How do you justify calling him a loser?

Only 28 players scored 30 goals last year. You're expecting a guy that scored at a 17 goal pace is going to come in and be a top 30 goal scorer in his first full year. It's got nothing to do with the Leafs.

Ever?

And I think that you're severely underrating just how big of a jump it is between the AHL and the NHL.

$6m a year for a past his prime forward who is slowing down? Sure, that's good value - he definitely earned that with his 45 points last year.





8 goals in 39 games last year definitely translates to 30 in a full season this year. I guess that math was part of that Georgetown entrance exam that you failed.
