Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is.
What?
Your team has finished 2nd,9th,5th last with Phil the Thrill leading the way ... I should hope the grass is greener ... somewhere.
Phil has scored 2 even strength goals in his last 33 games since RC too over. 2!
He has 4 goals on the PP in that time ...
ELITE you say? I think not.
If a team wants to trade a young PWF - a Goalie ready for primetime - additional picks in this deep draft ... it might be worth discussing.
Rather than giving One Dimensional Phil a raise - and another 6+ years of doing his best Jason Blake impression.
Okay, now glance to the right. He currently has 9 assists, 11 points in 13 games (almost ppg) and is a + 2 (not a liability so far). He is producing. If he had 2 goals, 1 assist then there would be a problem. The important thing is he is a part of almost one goal a game, which means he is a major contributor to our offence.
Who cares if it's not him putting the puck in? He is gift wrapping goals for some of our guys. He is always mocked as being "one demintional" , let him devellope his playmaking and defense like he has been. Watch him become a dominate offensive machine with elite playmaking and scoring abilities, while not being a definsive liabilty.
