Gritchuk the last 2 season wRC+ 90 and 112
Springer last 2 seasons 156 and 146

its not really close

ignore RBI and batting average...they are almost meaningless

- senstroll

Maybe we should bet?

Next 3 years total.... Gurriel vs Springer

Sorry, but I still value batting average and RBI

I love that the first goal of the season was Willy, scoring from the perimeter.

Tonight, 8-0 Leafs, Matthews hat trick, Marner 2, Spezza, Hyman, Rielly

- Zezel

Willie is a healthy scratch?

I wish you guys had signed Murray.

Probably would have made you appreciate Andersen more.

Anyone else notice that whenever teams have 2 good goalies battling for starts, good results follow:

Fleury/Lehner
Fleury/Murray
Luongo/Schneider
Lundquist/Georgiev
Korpisalo/Merzlikins
Bishop/Khudobin
Rask/Halak
Markstrom/Demko
Holtby/Samsonov


Even Potvin was best when being pushed by Damian Rhodes

Watch Jarry drop off now🤔

Karlsson looked great carrying a meh team to game 7 of the conf. finals. He;s simply not the same.

I really hate the "well rounded" argument. That's like people who argue a two way game of a 40 point centre is better than a superstar. Karllson had a bigger impacta nd was more talented.

- RogerRoeper


Yeah believe or not, but defense from a defecencemen is pretty damn important.

Is someone saying different?
I guess you could debate it...

Personally, I don’t think it’s close.

He'll be the unsung hero as usual, carrying the puck and gaining the zone, treating it like a (frank)ing seminar, flowing like a Swedish wind

He is allowed to have an opinion. It is the wrong one, but that is fine.

Sure he could impact the game like those playoffs, but was he really the best dmen in the league, no.

He was good offensively, but poor defensively. I just find his status overrated, not that he was some Marincin level player or something

Overrated doesnt mean he was bad, just not as good as the propped him up to be.

- Archaic


Playing as a 4th forward will always be good for individual points, not going to be the best at acquiring team points, as goes most of his career.

It's amazing all the people who failed to see the long lineup of people who aligned with Trump and got (frank)ed over. It's truly astounding. It's like being the hundredth person to put your hand in a wood chipper.

I thought you were referring to Nylander (misread it as 'playing as 4th best forward') and completely agreed with you there

Mets are getting close to their top number..they want to stay 10 or so mil under the lux tax (if you believe that)




Jays could sign Springer. Bauer and realmuto and still have a lower payroll than the yanks or dodgers

- senstroll



I have this fear that agents are just using the Jays to drive up prices, but the players have little desire to play in Canada, and less with COVID going on for the rest of the year.
