I’m right there with everyone saying to give Archie a shot over Kuhn. I don’t dislike Kuhn, but that 4th line and the PK are not working. Can’t blame all of that on Kuhn alone, but Archie provides something different so shake things up.
However, I’m surprised by how much of a pass Hagelin is getting by the majority of posters. He has the same amount of points as Kuhn despite getting better zone starts, more TOI, and with much, much, much more talented players than Kuhn. And he counts $4M against the cap. I know not everything Hagelin does shows up on the scoresheet, but I just find it strange people are clamoring for Kuhn to be benched but OK with Hagelin playing with Malkin and Kessel.
