Why, everyone here has said that the players we have are good enough to play with Eichel and have career years.

Are you saying the players are not actually good enough?

I would take Tuch in that trade with Vegas, fit in nicely on the 2nd line.

maybe if you have hasek in his prime in net

Ok, so you're going on record as saying points are everything.

You pick up a newspaper and look at the stats , you do not even need to watch the games? Guy's are ranked in order, scouting is as simple as reading.

I can see why you like sam so much.

Just an opinion, but players need to have other qualities to make their team more complete to win a cup.

Points are obviously important, but toughness, determination, effort, size, speed, leadership, and attitude need to be looked at as well

It would take quite a bit to pry Tuch out of Vegas.

I feel like Risto for Marchessault(sp?)

Would be the center piece of a deal with some + going one way and the other.

Though all of VGKs players have a NTC and have to waive to come here.

Other than Tuch and Karlsson, which could be our benefit.

Boss this is not a video game, all players are different. You really cant teach Toughness (some guys just don't want to get punched in the face), I think Sam is a determined player, Effort (sure i will give you that one sometimes) size (cant teach that) Leadership (you either have it or you don't) Attitude? Sam have a bad one of those?

There are very few players that exhibit all of those qualities in the NHL
