Thread: habs 21-22
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>evelutions2</b></div><div>Mackinnon over the course of his career so far has averaged about 50% on the draw. I don’t get how that is garbage. If anything it is average. While some players are better on the draw, most players bat .500 over the course of their entire career. So if most players go about .500, by your logic all of those players are garbage on the draw. While Landeskog primarily plays LW, he can also play C, just like Mackinnon can play RW. Players are not limited to knowing how to play just one position. Take Pysyk, he can play both on the blue line as well as the wing.</div></div>

Mackinnon was about 42-43% before COL started using Landeskog more strategically on faceoffs. But you agree that Landeskog is primarily a LW? K cool.

Also... comparing Pysyk to this is silly. He's not the first and won't be the last defenceman to be used as a winger.

Boom. Roasted.

Thread: Would it work
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WhoCares_ItsAFantasyGame</b></div><div>This from a guy who gave Kotkaniemi and Lehkonen less than 3M$ when entry level contracts are pretty much set for players like KK at around 3-3.5 and Lek made 2.4M$ and seen as a valued player.. So you'll pay him less. Then trade Drouin for Zucker.. like the Pens are gonna say "Wow! good move!" as they get nothing out of this when they are trying to figure out some cap space.

That "No. Nope. Nada. Niet. Non. None of this works" must've come from the player's Agents and Pitts GM on your moves.</div></div>

LOOOOL, you're clueless. That's not trolling, it's just a fact. Do you even know what an "entry level contract" is?

I'd look at a player like Elias Lindholm whose performance was way more consistent on his entry level deal than KK was and got $2.7M x 2 years on his second deal, so I'd expect KK to be around $2.5M x 2 years. And why would Lehkonen get a raise in a flat cap world when his offensive production and overall usage have both gone down?
