<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>easily scored 4 more....no he couldn't have.
He wasn't even close.
and it's an average, it's not his 1st year playing.
He's never scored that many, he doesn't even average out to that many.
If he's so good, why don't they pay him?
If that's the mark of a good line player why don't you give up an arm and a leg for a player like ZAR, which you know you wouldn't.
This is where you're argument falls apart as stated earlier.
You avoid that. You don't want to go there. Because you know your full of it.</div></div>

4 goals in 9 games... absolutely impossible lol.

Your argument is that a player is a bad 3rd liner because he doesn't get 16+ goals lol even if the player is on pace for it or just comes short despite missing games.

You are an ABSOLUTE moron, congratulations.

They don't pay him because he does not want to play for them. Its real simple....

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>you want people to pay up for hopes and prayers. That isn't how it works on these guys who have years under their belt. Hell would you pay him the 2.5-3 million he'd be making at that level right now, as a RFA? I mean that speaks more than volumes on what the guy is worth no? I mean come on you are paying for future potential, that's your own argument.

Let me put it this way. ZAR put up 8 goals and 17 points for the penguins last year in 48 games. Which actually averages out to better than Jack's numbers.
Are you going to claim to me he's a legit 3rd liner? Would you pay up what you want other people to pay up for Jack for ZAR?
No you wouldn't. And that is where you're argument falls apart. Because I like ZAR, but he's a 4th liner who got paid 1 mil per after that season and rightfully so.
Your guy isn't performing any better.
You can say the same thing about ZAR, oh he's a young guy what makes you think he can't put up 20, you should pay an arm and a leg for him.
I like ZAR, he's a decent player....he's a 4th liner who's value to the penguins is worth more than trading him. But his trade value is what it is. Jack's is no different but you want to argue otherwise.

There are a lot of 3rd liners putting up 16+ goals a season. You can't win without those guys contributing secondary scoring.
Just in the teams I watch the most, Eller and Jenner. Both 3rd liners both guys have cracked 16+ multiple times.
Lets not pretend that's not happening. Yeah there are some bad 3rd liners out there, but that's because there are a slew of bad aka replacement level players. Guys who have aged out but still have contracts, guys that are forced in, etc... It is what it is. A lot of them are getting less ice time than Jack.
So we can keep going round and round on this, but when you realize YOU wouldn't pay what you are asking for the value you are getting. NOR would YOU pay the player a salary equal to what you are asking for him, then we are done arguing it.</div></div>

I just did further research and it turns out you're wrong, Rollover had 12 goals not 10... in 71 games played, he could have easily scored 4 more to live up to your 16 goal requirement.

Roslovic is a good 3rd liner, you are wrong, and your argument is fubar.

Good try though......

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>Any other ways you want me to prove you wrong or are you finally done with the half baked idea that MB would let KK and PD go in the same offseason, let alone to the same team?</div></div>

Danault is getting more than 5M dummy... He as a guy who can play on the top line, isn't going to be buried at 3C, he'll want a trade lol.

Also, that 4th line is terrible and you're assuming 3LW and 2LD make the team and have an impact in those roles with barely over 1M of cap space, that's unrealistic.

You haven't proved me wrong at all kid. Go back to NHL 20...
