<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OrganizedConfusion55</b></div><div>I have never liked Cozens. And for all the hype, he hasnt done anything in the NHL, and doesnt get on the scoresheet nearly enough. I mean rookies like Mercer (really?) , Seider (rookie dman on a team just as bad as the sabs), Zergas (who I wanted to take at 7) and so on are outperforming him.

Not mad at him, not sure why people cant have takes on players.</div></div>

Hockey isn't just about points. His whole scouting report from Juniors was that he thrives in transition and makes things happen while driving into the offensive zone. You're just being so incredibly biased and blinded by that, that you don't want to see how he's a good player. A remarkably good one for his age, too. Being a centerman is a lot harder than playing on the wing, you're responsible for a much larger section of ice and have to play within the most contested areas.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OrganizedConfusion55</b></div><div>Cozens isnt going to be a NHL center imo. Krebs will take that spot from him, he has way better vision on the ice. If Cozens stays in Buffalo, he will start playing more at wing imo.</div></div>

Also yeah wtf is this. He has 35 points so far on the season, good for the top 60 of ALL centers to play at least 15 games this season. That puts him firmly in 2C production. If that isn't an NHL center based off points alone, then what the hell is an NHL center? Only Barkov's and Matthews' allowed? He's outscoring other centers in his draft class like Dach, Newhook, Krebs, Tomasino, and McMichael.

He's 8th in scoring for all NHL centers under 22. Like honestly, what the hell more are you asking for?

I can understand takes on Mitts or Bryson or Olofsson or whatever, but this is just the worst thing I've seen on a site <em>full</em> of terrible ideas.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boomer125</b></div><div>The truth about an Eichel trade:
1. You will not get a player of the same calibre and same age or younger in return.
2. Buffalo has next to 0 leverage when it comes to moving Eichel
3. Money out means money in
4. As soon as you think of moving Eichel, you are starting from scratch. ( At which point you will need Quantity with Quality return)
5. Zib at 50% retained at the TDL will net you yet another A prospect and a 1st end pick</div></div>

1. Nobody said anything about bringing a same caliber player back in a trade? The purpose of the Eichel trade should be getting good prospects and picks back. Not rentals and bad contracts.
2. Yea, the team that he's signed to for another 5 years has no leverage.
3. That doesn't mean you take back a horrible contract back.
5. No that's just dumb. A player can always get injured or Zib could have a bad season next year. You get the 1st and the prospect in the Eichel trade, not trading a guy at the deadline.
