He is good, really good, I don't think its a bad deal for them at all, But to me it just makes the Tage deal look that much better. Pastrnak 26 years old, Tage 25 This year: Pastrnak 42 goals and 80 points. Tage 41 goals and 80 points. The last 2 seasons: Pastrnak 82 goals, 157 points, Tage 79 goals, 148 points. Does Pastrnak bring more to the team than Tage...intangibles? Defensive end play? Maybe, I'm not sure, but possibly. But is that worth $4.1M / 57% more? To me that is a big no. Quote

Good points and while I agree and also think Tage will continue to produce these numbers, Pastrnak has done it longer and sometimes you pay for players past as well as future. Plus he produces in the playoffs. Quote
Flashsabre Posted March 2, 2023 Report Posted March 2, 2023 They had to sign Pasta. Bergeron And Krecji are on their way out and Marchand is almost 34. Pasta and McAvoy are their building blocks. It will be interesting to see what Pasta does when the top 2 centres leave. Quote

Taro T Posted March 3, 2023 Report Posted March 3, 2023 Casey Fitzgerald actually playing tonight for the Swamp Cats. Pretty sure that's his 1st game dressed for them. Quote

If Tage keeps producing like this year he will be a steal no question. It'll be like the McKinnon deal was before he got his latest one. Tage still needs to learn to go through people as well as around them though to be truly great. That inability was in evidence tonight. Ottawa wins again spoiling Kane's debut. Told ya, of all the teams on the outside, they are the one best built for this time of year, and yes, they now also added Chychrun on top of that. Quote

I only caught some of the game last night, but I saw TT on the PK, he's tall with reach so one would think that would be a good thing... But Boston made him look silly before their first goal. I get it was 4-3 but they had him so turned around. His D game won't be as important is he's dropping 50 G a season, but I would like to see him tidy that up a bit. 1 Quote
Thorner Posted March 3, 2023 Report Posted March 3, 2023 Vegas as the 2 seed would draw Colorado in round 1 right now. Just a sicko format. Series would be fun though Quote

His D game won't be as important is he's dropping 50 G a season, but I would like to see him tidy that up a bit. He came over out to close the 4-3 and what was going to become a short 5-4 and carry that opening shift of even strength. But I think it was the wrong move. That's got to be Cozens, (Tuch, when healthy), Jost, Girgs, or Okposo. Especially in a 0-0 game where Boston has been starting to carry play. I don't mind TNT coming out to close the final 15 seconds of 5-on-4 when the Sabres are in the lead or down a couple. But 4-on-3 and making him the only forward? That's a coaching mistake. Quote
