Would be awesome if this guy is able to play at the next level early in his career, allowing Toronto to shift Hyman to the Tavares line (they have chemistry) and move Mikeyhev to the this line with Engvall, allowing 2 of Johnsson, Kapanen and Kerfoot to traded to help address a broken defense core.
I doubt he is NHL ready for a few more years. Great player, but he does play on an unreal line in a weaker conference. I think the jump up will take some time for him to adjust to.
Everybody knows Robertson drives that line. None of SDA or Thomas/Kirk are on his level.I doubt he is NHL ready for a few more years. Great player, but he does play on an unreal line in a weaker conference. I think the jump up will take some time for him to adjust to.
Guys gonna look good next to AM34
You're selling Matthews' playmaking ability a little short there lmaoI'm not sure you really want two pure goal scorers on the same line...
I would say his closest playstyle is to Marchand but he isn't a POS. Gritty, good hands, good shot, surprisingly good playmaker. Good edges but not a super fast skater.

Not in the least... but I'm just not sure you are maximizing your lines, with two guys who can score goals like that on the same line.

I'd rather have Hyman on the 2nd line with Tavares with Nylander as the playmaking winger.Not in the least... but I'm just not sure you are maximizing your lines, with two guys who can score goals like that on the same line.
Yup. The Bruins have it all wrong.I'm not sure you really want two pure goal scorers on the same line...

Another way of looking at it, assuming Robertson ends up that good, is that it allows our best playmaker 2 outlets for a good chance at a goal.Not in the least... but I'm just not sure you are maximizing your lines, with two guys who can score goals like that on the same line.

Pastrnak is the shooter, Marchand is an all-around mucker, great playmaker and Bergeron is the Selke level two way C.
This line being productive and stacked is a weird counter to the argument given they all have very wide skill sets that mesh extremely well together.
Uhhh..
“I'm not sure you really want two pure goal scorers on the same line...”. After Pastranak who are the best pure goal scorers on the Bruins after him? Both stats and eye test. You did a great job of breaking down Marchand and Bergeron‘s roles on that line. But you do realize you can be all of those things intangibly and also the teams second and third best pure goal scorers.
Lmfao usually cautiously optimistic? We regularly pencil 4th rounders in to top 6 roles here.You can tell when a prospect has it or not. There’s a good reason so many are hyping this kid. We’re usually cautiously optimistic but this kid has shown he’s got a very bright future. I’ll pump the breaks though so not to offend you.
Kerfoot can’t finish to save his life.
Also, you won’t see a raving review from me on a guy like Korshkov, for good reason.
