Have a bunch of people already left this game, or was the building this empty the entire time and I never noticed? Seems like the best kind of game to stick around for until the end is one when your team is blowing the other team out on a Friday night.

You give us your franchise player, we'll give you these good, but nothing special players. You would have to take it because:
-Weber's value is lower because you're trading him
-you're rebuilding
-you're a budget team

No need to foster their irrational hopes and dreams

....and...? The guy's on pace for about 35 points, which is very respectable for a rookie, but nothing extraordinary, especially considering he shifts with some pretty good players and gets PP time.

Would be right up there with our forwards.
He's gonna end up being a higher point getter than anyone in our system. Except maybe Forsberg

Right there at the end of the game, maybe with five seconds left, the same thing that Sissons got called for happened once again. Not that the interference call killed us and obviously a powerplay for 4 or 5 seconds would have done anything for us, but not even an arm went up. And that play was even more egregious since our player was knocked to the ice.
I understand different officials in different games having different opinions on what should and shouldn't be a penalty, but it's disheartening when officials in a single game can be so inconsistent.

Perhaps. I'm sure he'll end up a very solid top 6 guy, but for the level of talent he was touted to have, his production isn't that staggering despite being in a pretty good situation over in Dallas. I'm not knocking him, I just don't see anything to cause regret at this point.

If any of our rookies had those goal/point totals our board would be freaking out. Definitely impressive and I'm jealous. He's the high risk/high reward player our organization won't draft

No ones regretting. Just pointing out observations. We won't know if anything from this draft was a mistake until years from now.

Yeah, but our board gets REALLY excited for anything resembling offensive output, I'm not going to put too much stock into that.
Like I said, I'm not crapping on him, I'd love to have him here, but when you look at MacKinnon's 55 pts in comparison, everything looks kind of underwhelming and average I guess. Shoot, Seth's not even 10 pts behind Nichushkin and he hasn't even played that well (imo) for good stretches of the season...as a d-man.

Yep. I need to stop getting drawn into those worthless threads.
