Where is The King waiving to? - AdamFrench
All options are still possible, but I'm still guessing that he'll retire and will get an extremely well paid job in the organization... |

There were certainly other factors.
But my point is regarding the narrative around the player. He was labeled as someone who can't win/doesn't care. Not unlike the way Nylander is now.
Maybe I just think writing off 22-24 year old players as perennial failures is moronic - especially when recent history has shown that similar players who were written off went on to have success. - Leafs43
I think some just see him as the guy to trade if needed...out of the top 4.
Some guys don’t like him, he’s pretty soft so I get it...he drives me nuts at times too.
But yes, trading him for just the sake of trading him would be silly. |

Kessel won a cup because he was not the leader. He didn't start the wining culture in Pitt, he joined it, and from what I'v heard you put up or shut up in Pitt. Crosby culture.
Nylander may win a cup some day as well, but it will this kind of a scenario. |

If they wake up, yeah.
Played like poop last game. Suspect the long layoff had something to do with that. |

I'm not ready to write him off yet. People can mature.
I will agree the culture needs to be addressed. Muzzin should have more of a leadership role.

He's not a write off at all. He, like many others from TO will go elsewhere and buy in to a proper culture and likely win.
The question is, would any of them listen to Muzzin? |

As Dubas said, to fill in around the edges of the big 4 - Canada Cup
So same old same old then. He did that last year & had to run a short roster. The D prospects are 1 year more developed. So Dubas didn’t say anythimg really from what was obvious from this last season. He’s counting on the D kids. That is ok but it needs to be results driven success or he’s deluded. The Q is how far that success amounts to. |

They are ... but to my eyes... It's about even on High Danger scoring chances...
Once again Torts could care less about teams firing shots from the perimeter 40 feet out. Just to pad their stats. |

Hopefully Shanny changes Dubas. - bobbyisno1
Dubas is either patient or stubborn or covering his ass. He should be on the hot seat. |
