Sujet: Name on defenseman who will be better than Dahlin in 2021-22
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>One of his Swedish coaches. For the record, Lidstrom agreed.

<em>Back in December, fellow Swedish defenceman Nickas Lidstrom said that the 17-year-old reminded him of former Rangers defenceman Brian Leetch. Now, the four-time Stanley Cup champion told Dana Wakiji of DetroitRedWings.com that he thinks Dahlin is ahead of the development curve compared to where he was when he was Dahlin's age.</em>

Bahahahhaa. So one of his coaches gave him a compliment. Then what’s Lidstrom supposed to say? “Nah, I’m way better than that kid.” What a joke.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Eli</b></div><div>One Jets fan asked for Orlov + Oshie. ????? I didn't see the Caps wrecking their defense to keep the same number of 30 goal scorers. Then another Jets fan casually added on Vrana, Alexeyev, and a 1st. Never read the comments. :)</div></div>

Honestly I might do this if I were the WPG GM. Vrana is going to hit 30 goals this year if he continues to develop and stay healthy, without the PP time. Laine only scored 30 goals with a lot of PP time. Vrana scored more even strength goals and points. Vrana is also a better two way player right now. He's a 2 way forward based on some advanced metrics and we obviously know about his superb sniping ability.

You can counter and say that WPG would be potentially giving up an elite goal scorer. That's true and that's a hard call to do, but he isn't that yet. Vrana is a good top 6 two way forward right now and is only a couple years older than Laine.

Not to mention you're also getting a top 4 D prospect and a first round draft pick. It makes your team potentially better all around in a couple years.

Honestly not worth it for the Caps to do.

Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Charlie McAvoy (3 Years / $4,900,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>I don't know, people want to say this is a good deal but I'm not buying it.

McAvoy has injury issues. His production because of it was a lot lower.
Is he a better player than ZW, not sure on that. 5 million is a lot to have tied up in guys who miss a lot of games. I would have signed him to less and said show me you can stay healthy. I don't know if he can. Players know he has injury history so he's got a target on his back from any bad actors. When Chara retires I think this kid gets run.</div></div>

lol

Watch him play all 82 games this year and put 50+ pts like you want

For the " not sure if he's better than Werenski "
That's a steal/perfect deal. <img class="for_img" src="https://nbcprohockeytalk.files.wordpress.com/2019/09/mcavvsweren-1.png?w=607&amp;h=500" alt="mcavvsweren-1.png?w=607&amp;h=500">
