huh? greig has been in the whl for 5 years.
And yet, Greig is only 6 months older, still 19 y/o
If anything, Lysell has more pro experience so that should give him an advantage.
And Greig had a much better PPG in the WHL last year as he was younger than Lysell this year.
Anyway, everyone knows Greig's game is a lot more evolved than offensive production

formenton's speed doesnt matter because we have the same player in john beecher already in our system. we had zach senyshyn who had elite speed and couldnt make the roster. theres more to the game than just speed.
lol Formenton's game is a lot more than speed though. Like I said above, he had a stretch with 19 pts in 25 games when he first got a top-6 opportunity. He's also a very good PKer and good defensively with a mean streak. He's a 22 y/o rookie

before you keep throwing around the word delusional, you realize matthews and marner started making playoffs with the leafs at 19/20 years old? your team is young, has some good pieces but isnt even close to a playoff team right now.
lol what does it have to do with anything here?

How is that a trap? Lysell is an asset the bruins wouldn’t move unless NHL talent at a position of need was brought back. This isn’t rocket science.
No one in their right mind wouldn't trade Lysell for Greig and Thomson. Yet you are there "
What about a young 2C? If not, then move along."
To answer that, the only guy the Sens have who could fit this bill is Colin White. Josh Norris and Tim Stutzle are clearly going to be better than 2Cs and Pinto will prove it next year too. White is more a 3rd liner though but he's a very good possession with a very big attention to details, so maybe with the right opportunity and good linemates he could put second line numbers again (like he did in his rookie season)
