<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Happy to point out what you are missing. Look at Robertson's point production on the top two lines and you will see that 80% of his point production this season is on the top two lines. He also doesn't have the defensive game Kurashev brings which is what Kurashev is known for. Furthermore, Robertson when he produces is not next to one star on the ice like Kurashev (who outproduces him), but two starts be it Nylander and JT or Matthews and Marner. Kurashev and Bedard play with guys like Joey Anderson who couldn't even make the Leafs squad comparably.

I'm willing to bet hands down 31 GMs in the league would rather have Kurashev with his two way game and rarely injured versus the small fragile Robertson who can't produce without two stars on his line.</div></div>

I'd absolutely love to know where you're getting "80% of his point production this season is on the top two lines", because it doesn't sound true unless you think Jarnkrok and Domi are stars or something. The guys who play on the top two lines are Matthews, Tavares, Nylander and Marner who I've already shown don't play with Robertson.

Rest of your post is just absolute nonsense. Kurashev is so good at being a two-way winger, it's why he has the worst +/- on his team despite mostly starting in the offensive zone.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Db1899</b></div><div>They’re just delaying the rebuild to get knocked out in the 1st rd. They need to go the San Jose route and tear it down</div></div>

From a financial perspective, it's a lot harder for teams like Nashville to just go into a full rebuild because they're more reliant on the gate revenue for their games than larger markets are. Bad teams don't sell as many tickets. Unfortunately this means they're usually treading the playoff bubble zone until something forces them to commit to a rebuild. Once Josi and Saros are gone it would make more sense since those players aren't easily replaced through trade or FA.

Ultimately you need to convince ownership that rebuilding the squad is a more viable investment than trying to sell out the arena.
