Didn't you say 2nd or 3rd best?
4th I think is Weal.
5th is Folin.
But Kulak, Weal, and Folin are looking like nice finds. They make us much better - they've stabilized their dpairings/lines, that were previously ineffective or erratic.
And then there's Thompson who had an excellent game playing with 2 offensive players in Byron and KK. I'm curious to see if he can repeat that.
3rd best. Domi and Tatar deals were clearly big home runs, but Kulak was a nice triple.
Weal and Folin have been good, but I think Kulak has the most potential out of all 3. I don't see him as a 50 point norris contender, but a Petry lite is in the cards. Only 156 NHL games there is still room to grow for his NHL game.
I think Weber/Mete/Petry/Kulak can be a solid top 4 if Mete and Kulak can continue to grow their games.
I like Thompson and think he has done what he was brought here to do. Won't fall in love with him because he is a journeyman 4th liner, but he wins F/O's, brings strong work ethic, has put up some decent points for a 4th line guy, and is solid veteran prescence.
TBH MB's moves at TDL all have worked out, just hope the habs can make the playoffs so they look even better.
