If one of Jake/JVR isn't taken in expansion, I suspect Chuck is going to try to sell one of those guys.

Also that third line has me drooling. So much youth and talent.

after the ellis trade, if this is the lineup going into the season it would be the biggest letdown ever

before last season i said to myself - missing the top veteran RD could end up derailing this entire team, and that is exactly what happened. gonna stick to my guns and believe that a top RD is the key piece in allowing the rest of this very talented lineup to snap back into form. i could be entirely wrong but as far as i'm concerned, i believe in this group of guys. the end of 2020 regular season was not a fluke in my opinion.
