Again, how is Kassian a guaranteed Top 6 winger? What has he done, at all, to earn that designation? You really need to elaborate on this statement.
Starting in 2009, he's had seasons of 66 pts in 82 games, 71 pts in 74 games, 69 pts in 74 games, 20 pts in 28 games, 78 pts in 82 games, and 43 pts in 68 games. He's also won 3 Cups, experience he brings to his new team.
But no, 1 season out of 6 and he's declining, while Kassian is full of untapped Top 6 potential based on...what?
Collberg played 0 games for us and he's been called a bust. Sekac played 50 games for us and he's been labelled a bust. Really, why do these 27 games not count?
"Plagued with injuries"...yeah, that does sound like an extremely promising asset we got there...you think his history of injury might be playing a factor in why teams are willing to trade him away and why I see him as a far-from-certain project?
Sorry, but if we're gonna give Kassian the same "chance" we've been giving Chucky, I'm even less optimistic!
Also, what has Kassian done to be compared to Galchenyuk?
