I'm just saying we don't know what this gm is capable of he might get a buy low type of prospect in a trade and might just click with Jack

Or you know just use what is here with Bailey, Baptiste, Nylander or Fasching?

ABSOLUTELY NOT

Why in the hell anyone thinks O'Reilly at wing is a good idea is beyond me
He is our ONLY good defensive center
O'Reilly needs to stay there for matchup purposes
Plain & simple

This!

Middlestat is probably the one that ends up on the wing

That was gameplan for life without Kane assuming we don't add another LW, that allows the top 6 to play familiar positions
- jcragcrumple




I understand that...
but we really need to keep O'Reilly at center
Middelstadt would get eaten alive by other top centers in our end
He'd need to get much stronger to even consider him in that role,
and that's years from now imo
Not next year... no way

And even then...
I'd have him at 3C and still keep ROR at center

I'm banking on Baptiste fitting as a sidekick for Jack
He's got the speed, skill & sniping ability...
worked well on the wing with McDavid in Juniors,
so it's worth a shot at least

Nylander is not ready I'm talking about some one that has been in the NHL for 2 years or so buy low

Bailey , Baptiste both got out played at rookie camp if they both think you can just milk it and make The team I hope the gm sends them to ahl for that thinking

Another "playmaker" at wing though.....
don't we need guys that can FINISH on the wing?

Seems to me we have a bunch of 40+ assist type guys,
and not enough guys that can score 30 goals

30+ guys... Jack
25+ guys... Kane, O'Reilly, Okposo
20+ guys... Reinhart

Where does Mittelstadt & Nylander project?
I'd say more like 20g-40a types
So we are REALLY gonna need Baptiste, Bailey & even Fasching to develop into consistent goal scorers for us

False, they just light it up on the score board. Those two plus Asplund were the dominant players in the entire camp. Middlestat just showed his skill in the 3 on 3

In 2-3 years, I'd have the top9 looking something like this
(Assuming no major moves are made)


Nylander- playmaker who should at least be an "ok" scorer
Eichel- stud playmaker & finisher
Baptiste- speedy scorer


Bailey- power forward type
O'Reilly- good at everything, top defensive center
Okposo- good 2way forward


Kane- sniper
Reinhart- mostly playmaker, but solid scorer as well
Mittelstadt- looks to be a skilled playmaker, will he develop as a scorer?



That's roughly how I see it anyways

It was good
I thought Tom Holland did a great job & it was interesting to write the character in that way

Although I could start listing a bunch of inconsistencies,
just like u did with BvS
But every time I see a reboot or superhero movie in general,
I just wipe the slate clean of what I previously knew
Or at least I try to
That way I can enjoy it for what it is...
instead of what I think it should be

Lots of buddy's went and my dad works there ..
When it's been 5 years you would think they outplay everyone and be the ones the rookies look up to not be just "good"

Is that wrong to say ?

I'm not ready to assume that just yet
He certainly has skill...
but I wanna see him scoring more before I'd say he's "sniper" quality

Not "problems"
Inconsistencies


MJs name is "michelle"
She doesn't have red hair

Flash on the debate team or whatever it was

Peter's bff sidekick

All those go against typical Spider-Man mythology
And there was more
It's not worth debating...
I'm just trying to point out how EVERY superhero movie does it
And rightly so
Otherwise, you'd just be watching the same movie over & over each time
