How many of our forwards have actually been good in the playoffs though? I don't see any reason why he couldn't produce in the postseason, he just hasn't yet.

Hey! You suck!
I mean considering how many opportunities he has had to do so and how many times he has, meh.

In 45 post-season games starting in 16-17, Forsberg has 39 points. Joey has 42 points in 51 playoff games with the Preds.

Those would be the ones that come to mind. I guess it's hard to really assess any others at this point since they've all pretty much changed. Arvy being the exception (Sisssons and Jarnkrok not really expected to produce much in those circumstances).

To be fair I think those two are the only two who have actually performed in the playoffs. Turris, Smith, Jarnrkok, Granlund, etc, never did.

Yeah but even Jarnkrok had the good series in the sweep of Chicago, I can't recall Smith ever doing anything.

Lol, all they probably did was tell him “play the game you’ve been playing for 10 years”.
Instead of his Preds directions - “don’t be doing any of that tough guy stuff here” “we have a system and no one strays from it”.

I dunno about that.Hire Steve Sullivan as GM
He is an alum of our Lollypop Guild, the source of our constant sorrow. He might go out and get even tinier guys than Poile does.
Nice guy good player though.

People are speculating he headed that combine scheme that the NHL punished the Coyotes for.

It’s funny, look up the NHL team values.
A few original 6 are worth ~ 1.5 billion ...... Coyotes are worth like 300 mil. Fairly pitiful.
What is the Preds value? I remember back in the 04-05 lockout the Ducks sold for $85 million which I thought was ridiculously cheap
Most teams are in the ~ 500 million range, including Preds. Some over a billion, some down at 3-400 million.
Which is still sort of shocking, as NFL NBA MLB teams are all worth a lot more.
Hockey must just be such a smaller fan base, smaller operations, smaller niche for swag and memorabilia.
I guess if you’re a poor boy with only one billion and not 10-20-50 billion, and you crave owning a big league team, you go with hockey.

If I had Bezos, Zuckerberg, Buffet money, I’d own a team in every major league. Would be great.
Leafs owner basically does this in Canada; he owns the top Canadian team in each sport.

I always get a guy named Larry Tannenbaum. He also owns the Raptors, Toronto FC, Argonauts, etc.
Guess he somehow missed out on the Jays, lol.
It’s possible that the union owns a piece, this guy may just own the controlling share.
