I imagine Debrincat is gonna rip a few in, Datsyuk off Abdelkader style, off Rasmussens ass this year. I actually also think having Debrincat and Raymond in the top 6 this year makes it even more likely Ras seems minutes up there to provide some size.Rasmussen scored on 0.5ppg pace last year without getting any significant PP time, he was actually second best ES scorer after Larkin. I think 45-50 might be reasonable to expect but, to get beyond 50 point he will need to feature at least on a sceond PP unit.
That opinion is completely fine but 45 point players who are physical, can play wing or center, big bodied and a two way game make much more than 1.4 million. I'm not saying hes a 4.5 million a year guy, but when the cap goes up this off season, dont be surprised if he gets a decent chunk of change either
Here's a list of everyone bigger than Ras who scored at a higher clip than him the last season:I’m fine with him at his current price point but he just strikes me as a half PPG, big bodied two way forward who plays a pretty straight forward game but don’t see him as a big difference maker for us.
Here's a list of everyone bigger than Ras who scored at a higher clip than him the last season:
Tage is 6'5 without skatesYou are definitely missing one Tage Thompson on your list.
I know people will point to cups and what not, but Killorn and Palat have been 45ish point guys most of their careers and both are pulling $6m on the wrong side of 30. If Ras can put up 45-50 points, he's definitely getting paid.
They're both listed at 6'6" on their respective team websites.He is 6'7
rasmussen primed for a beakout year. assuming healthy he will get 60 points. one of, if not the best even strength producers per mins played.
Closer to 6'7. 6'6 and 3/4 The imperial units are just not very precise.They're both listed at 6'6" on their respective team websites.
Not even sure why it matters, this isn't basketball, no team has ever won a Stanley Cup based on height advantage.
Raz needs to fill out some more, he's currently listed at 211, Tage is at 220, Lucic has them both at 240.
That means he's 1052.63 times the wavelength of the cosmic background radiation that is the leftover radiation from the time of the Big Bang.Closer to 6'7. 6'6 and 3/4 The imperial units are just not very precise.

How many forwards are taller than Ras, anyway?Here's a list of everyone bigger than Ras who scored at a higher clip than him the last season:
Yeah, it's like saying we having the highest scoring player 5'7" or shorter.How many forwards are taller than Ras, anyway?
