I still doubt it's reliability. If short term = 5-6 years vs 8, then sure. But there's no way he's going to sign a 2-3 year deal unless he hates Denver.So the Dater's tweet about "Mikko is gonna sign a short term deal" was Dater talking with Mikko's agent. They talk about that matter in their latest podcast.
Yep. I believe he will sign 5-6 years.I still doubt it's reliability. If short term = 5-6 years vs 8, then sure. But there's no way he's going to sign a 2-3 year deal unless he hates Denver.
Just watched it on YouTube haha. Blonde girl interviewing Sakic-Writing a paper I have the full 2015 draft playing in the background, as you do. And when it came to the Mikko pick McGuire said "they'll be lucky to get 20 goals out of him, doesn't have much of a shot".
Funny to hear those things in hindsight, how wrong even the so called experts can be. Though it is much more of an art than a science.

Rantanen is the better all around player . Laine can snipe but doesn't do the things Rants does .The topic of Laine vs Rants is an interesting one. Watching the playoffs last year I was surprised at how one dimensional Laine was. If he wasn't scoring goals he wasn't having a lot of effect on the game. Given his size and perceived skills I was surprised. It seemed to me he could be a 180 lb sniper for all that he uses his size. There is no question that scoring goals is a primo skill to possess but talk on the Wpg board seems to agree with my observation that his overall game is lacking or at least has stalled improvement-wise. Rants seems to be adding more arrows to his skill quiver each year to the point where he is at least as valuable on the ice as Laine IMO.
Button just isn’t a big fan of Mikko. He had Mikko barely in the top 10 when he was ripping up the AHL while Nylander was number 1 iirc
I love the 2015 draft class, one of the best in recent memory. I count my lucky stars we were able to get Rantanen and did not take Crouse. If I'm not mistaken, Pracey was out by then? I'm sure he would've taken the NA guy. I also remember the board was pretty 50/50 on Crouse, would be funny to look back at that thread.
That's why Button never got another gig , he's simply dohButton just isn’t a big fan of Mikko. He had Mikko barely in the top 10 when he was ripping up the AHL while Nylander was number 1 iirc
he will ask for 9,6Looking forward to his 14 million salary alienating everyone else.
Amazing play, his reach & skill reminds me of Mario LemieuxThis guy is so goooooood. Loved the goal vs Bruins where he goes through two players and passes to MacKinnon. What a player!
I'm glad he learned how to stop falling down so much.
Also who do I need to pay to make that song go away?
I loved that they kept playing it over and over again at the end of the game there. Lauren asked if that would become a victory song and Mikko responded "I hope not."
