I thought the same hearing his name out there... but he did have good movement on PP when OEL scored.

Yeah, I was surprised by how comfortable he looked on the powerplay

Crazy. Overpay imo
- Nighthawk

You keep talking about the importance of a no. 1 RHD that's the cost. 23 years old and was over a pt a game last year in the playoffs.

I like him in the top 4. Let's revisit this after a few games.

I'd love to have him on this team, it would have been great to have picked him instead of OJ.

I don't understand Dowling on PP2... Richardinson would be better there.
- Retinalz


Richardinson also plays PK ya? Maybe just trying to keep him fresher for that

Petan also better on PP2 than Dowling
- Nucker101

Most likely yes. I liked his preseason when before I believed he wasn’t cut out for the NHL then he impressed me.

Yes I do I guess I haven’t wrapped my head around these big contracts for D. Rethinking it McAvoy is in line for that.

Probably by year five they are trying to dump the contract. Nothing against the player but when these high priced long term contracts reach a certain age or at a first drought the fans can't get rid of them quick enough.

Maybe depends where the cap is at... player is only 23... So shouldn't be declining hard like say OEL has

No doubt we will hate the OEL contract sooner or later.

I'm looking forward to the game tonight. I wish we could get another Kevin Bieksa vs Mike Richards fight like the good old days.

He is IMO the 4th best RHD in the league right now.

Pietro
Hamilton
Makar
McAvoy
Fox

Fox will get over 9 next season and all of these guys will be paid over 9.

I understand Petro and Hamilton, given their reputations, but how do you have McAvoy over the guy who literally just won the Norris last year?
