All this talk of Eichels improved defensive play and no mention of his faceoff prowess or lack thereof. I don’t have the numbers in front of me but McDavid is pretty good in that regard.

They have almost identical FO%

Frankly I hope they keep both him and angry Larry for at least 2 or 3 more years.  And we're stuck with Okposo, he complements them well.  The nice thing about it is they are well matched as a checking line, but all those guys can move up a line or two if needed.

They are good as a checking, bottom 6 line.  You can give them tough mins against good competition and they will do a decent job.

However, I don’t want any of them playing up the lineup in a top-6 role.

^^^^That view of the Eichel rush confirms that one of the Sabres set a pick for him at the Sabres' blue line.  I think it was Reino, but not sure.

Speaking of Reino, he had another one of those games where he does zero for 2 periods and then makes a bunch of good plays thereafter.

It was Colin Miller.

Crosby is a top 5 player all-time. He's better than Datsyuk, and it's not particularly close.
