That is part of it though. Panarin is like Kane they need space to work and mostly work the edges of the ice. They Hawks have lacked the player who will get infront of the net and put in the rebound shots. You can play the edges in the regular season but need the "tough" goals in the playoffs when the game changes. The NHL more than most sports has a totally different game in the post season. look at the Hawks last year. They had one of the best records in the league but get swept in the first round and only 3 goals in 4 games doing it. They didn't need the "toughness" as in fighting but needed the players who can play in the middle.
No, it's not part of it. Again they didn't trade Panarin for Reaves. Saad is talented as hell. He just happens to be a bigger guy

Didn't have him in my defensive pairing because I just made the team as it is currently constructed, Campbell is a FA.
I think they'll trade Kruger to Vegas for one of their many D guys.
Not sure Vegas would do it but getting Marc Methot wouldn't be a bad thing. He gave Crosby fits in the ECF
Love the doofuses saying the Hawks got Saad back because they needed more toughness. Christ people, they traded for Brandon Saad, not Cody f***ing McLeod.

I meant the post. Don't you picture TA behind the plate? Pretty tall, good arm. Decent pop in the bat. Low BA. Never walk. And in the post I asked if he had ANY background as a catcher. I think he projects offensively as a slightly better than average catcher.
Are the mods arguing a .250 ceiling, about a .290 on base ceiling, and good 20 homer power, 70 ribbies?
no
