If he stays up all year anywhere from 15G 30P to 20G 45P. I'd think some where between 35 and 45 but who knows maybe the bottom 6 will suck again.What do people expect of Dube this year? 20 goals, 40 points?
Thanks. Maybe he'll work his way up to the top 6?If he stays up all year anywhere from 15G 30P to 20G 45P. I'd think some where between 35 and 45 but who knows maybe the bottom 6 will suck again.

Thanks. Yeah, I don't need his production this year. But it seems from what I've read that his ceiling could be high and he is still improving a lot.Unless it’s a keeper league you’re asking about, I’d avoid him at this point. He might have a 40-45pt year, but that’s far from a sure thing. Honestly I’ll be happy if he scores 30.

Yes. Also playing someone off their strong side, or moving Brodie back to LD.Now that Kulak has been traded Vali pretty well has a lock on the job. Who else is there to replace him on the left side? Kylington?

I guess I should have said: "Who else is there that's good to replace him on the left side?Yes. Also playing someone off their strong side, or moving Brodie back to LD.
Maybe Healey, Hogstrom, or either of the two guys they got for Kulak.
To be truthful I would be happy with 10 goals and 10 assists.. and that he doesn't cost us more goals than he scores or help score.What do people expect of Dube this year? 20 goals, 40 points?
No. Hanifin and Stone have looked fantastic together thus far IMO.What do you guys think of splitting Hanifin and Hamonic?
Hanifin - Stone
Valimaki - Hamonic?
No. Hanifin and Stone have looked fantastic together thus far IMO.
I did, yes. I think their games fit well together. Hanifin needs to be with a defensive stalwart, in Carolina he was with the worst possible partner on the 2nd pairing and it saw him moved down to play with TVR who while no stalwart, was better than Faulk defensively. This is why Carolina fans seemed to have negative things to say about him IMO, they never had a Hamonic type player to pair him with. Hamonic's style allows Hanifin to venture.Guessing you mean Hanifin - Hamonic.
For sure they have. Hanifin will be one of those guys that will make his partner look great regardless of who it is; not a knock on Hamonic, who looks to be much better)
10+10 would be a big disappointment from a top 9er. That is a 4th liner production territory.To be truthful I would be happy with 10 goals and 10 assists.. and that he doesn't cost us more goals than he scores or help score.
Good for Valimaki. Not so good for Hanifin.What do you guys think of splitting Hanifin and Hamonic?
Hanifin - Stone

For a 20 year old rookie drafted 56th overall I'd be satisfied... providing his defensive game was good.10+10 would be a big disappointment from a top 9er. That is a 4th liner production territory.
Exactly. That would be a huge disappointment.10+10 would be a big disappointment from a top 9er. That is a 4th liner production territory.

Or he could have gone with #3 to honor 2x Norris Trophy winner Pierre Pilote (Chicago Blackhawks) who once scored 59 pts as a defenseman which was almost unheard of for a d-man in mid '60s
#8 was a good choice too.
