Girgensons is a defensive forward and that’s what he’s paid for.

Just like a defensive defensemen

Sabres giving up quite a few goals without him

- Boss34

you don't play highly skilled prospects in a defensive roll

they don't play shutdown minutes in college or in juniors or in the ahl but our coach thinks it's perfect to put them out in a position they have never played before in the nhl and shelters them to 5 minutes a night so they do not make mistakes

I see A LOT OF MISTAKES from our multimillionaires on the ice every game

2015/2016 playoffs:

Hagelin-Bonino- Kessel were together for 247 minutes at even strength.

Kessel did not play with Crosby or Malkin that entire playoff run at even strength.

How you like them facts ????????????????????

They distributed those even strength minutes forsure.

My point was made, Kessel, Crosby, Malkin all played on separate lines on that 2015/2016 cup run.

But hey, facts get in the way of a good story apparently

Kevyn Adams’ entire tenure as GM is the scene in Ricky Bobby where he is like “I’m not sure what to do with my hands?”

Except not funny at all.

No, I didn't say anything about who he played with. Kessel averaged over 18mins a night with the pens, scored a wack of PP points and was an integral part of winning back to back cups

Trying to minimize his importance on those teams to prove your point about skinner while thinking Greenway is some kind of great addition to this team is weird

Greenway is a bottom 6 forward on any good team, Skinner is a top 6 forward on any team

16-17 his most common linemates in the regular season were Bonino and Hagelin……..


They moved Kessel around in the middle 6 in the playoffs and he got more time with Malkin.

- Swedish_Jesus


In the 16-17 playoffs, aka, games that matter, he had the 3rd most TOI on the team.

Please stop, you're wrong, take the L

Edit: Oh, and he led the team in points in the playoffs in 15-16 and was 3rd in 16-17

Fückin 3rd line bum

Yeah, the HBK line, they made a huge deal about it, so now that he didn't play with Crosby, not your original argument, you called him a 3rd liner, it's supposed to mean something? You can't play the 2nd most minutes and be a 3rd liner, not possible
