These Are The Days
Oh no! We suck again!!
Our team scoutsThe most amazing thing about the Duclair trade is that in the small sample size, it looks like he has some chemistry with Stamkos AND Cirelli...who the hell would have seen that coming?

There is a mile long list of players who've "had chemistry" with Stamkos for like 5 games.
My personal favorite.

Ryan Callahan even had chemistry with Stamkos for a game or two at a time. There was like, yeah, 5 games where Killorn-Stamkos-Callahan was red hot.There is a mile long list of players who've "had chemistry" with Stamkos for like 5 games.
Will both of them make it through the game?D
Excellent
I think it was way fewer full games. Like 6 or 10 maybe. A few shifts here and there beyond that.Stamkos and Drouin. About as rare as a sasquatch sighting. 3 years and they had like maybe 25 games together

Drouin actually seemed to have genuine chemistry with Stamkos every time they got a glimpse of ice together. Drouin and Kucherov was a pre-curser to Point-Kucherov.
With Duclair, yeah, the jury is very, very much still out. Can't be overstated how much Philly handed that game to us. But I mean, I'd rather see good chemistry than bad chemistry, and there was definitely something there for one game.
To be honest I wanted to say 5 or 10 but I didn't want to sound like I was exaggerating. But that's exactly how I remember it. So I punted and said 25 instead as to still convey how ridiculously infrequent their time together was.I think it was way fewer full games. Like 6 or 10 maybe.

The baffling thing about Drouin's time in Montreal is he showed a ton of skill here, and mainly looked great with Kucherov, but also with Stamkos occasionally.
I mean, I don't doubt there was plenty of reason to hate him. His time in Syracuse wasn't exactly rosy.To be honest I wanted to say 5 or 10 but I didn't want to sound like I was exaggerating.

As for the latter part. Yeah. He was dynamite here because we had great players and he was smart enough to find chemistry with everyone. But Coop for whatever reason hated the kids guts and either stapled him to the bench or to J.T Brown. And he STILL was about .500 PPG. And yet Coop still hated him until the Syracuse fiasco was over. I mean I hope it was worth it to them. Drouin didn't come back being Ondrej Palat like they wanted and then carried us through the playoffs. His "defensive issues" were so grossly overrated. Then Montreal on the other hand took one look and said "1st line center" and just broke him.
It's crazy to think this is the 2nd time in his career he isn't being misused or being asked to be something he's not. The 1st being our run to the ECF and 2016

I will be ready with my shitty takes.

I'm looking forward to him returning and hope he plays well.serge posted a pic on instagram wherein he implies that he will be skating soon. so i expect certain posters here to be greasing up their shitty takes because it looks like postseason poor talent evaluation may be back on the menu for you.
stralman broke just his tibia (on march 25th of that year, serge broke his on february 8th) and returned to the much maligned 2016 conference finals playoff series against the penguins where we lost in game 6 & 7 (he returned in game 6, i believe) and he was DEFINITELY not himself.I'm looking forward to him returning and hope he plays well.

Duclair has been a consistent 15-15 to 20-20 fast, aggressie, and a two-way player that has shot. He is a fringe top 6 player depending on skills of guys around him, but good top9 player with wheels.Our team scouts
He's been significantly better than that on a per game basis. You might be underselling him a bit here in general.Duclair has been a consistent 15-15 to 20-20 fast, aggressie, and a two-way player that has shot.
