Thread: CENTRAL DIVISION ALL-STARS
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NoDeke</b></div><div>I do explain i had them in the starting lineup above then the boys in the pod convinced me other wise. This team is based off of the players since the last all-star break. I agree though i had foresberg in but he has some games missed and Robo Cop has around 80pts in in last 80 game

EXTRA FWD NOTES
I had Scheifele and Forsberg in the Starting Lineup and Zuccarello as the extra FWD, but I was convinced in the episode that Kyrou and Robo Cop cannot be said no to. So now we have too many extra fwds but sometimes this division is too good.</div></div>

Just in case you didn't see the edit from my previous comment -- Forsberg sits 1st in ESG/60, 2nd in G/60, and 4th in G/GP this season -- he should be starting on this team.

There are definitely hard choices to make for the Central division, but Forsberg seems like an easy one to me.

Thread: How Far
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChrisNapoleon</b></div><div>Second Round exit. The top 6 is outstanding btw, but goaltending is really good too, but that defense is questionable</div></div>

Curious as to what makes you question the defense. When putting it together, I was trying to get guys that I think are a bit underrated.

Weegar is having a fantastic season, and Jensen is having a great one too. Cole is solid in a 3rd pair role. Marino is underrated imo, and Graves is fine in a number 4 role. And I think giving Dahlin a true top pairing partner in Weegar would really allow him to flourish -- he's been playing with a rotation of Jokiharju, Pysyk, and Butcher. Weegar is lightyears better than those three guys. Given a better team + better partner, I think he would have a breakout year.

Thread: Trades on Trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>herzausstein</b></div><div>I personally wouldn’t. Looking at our pipeline our forward group is a lot better then our defensive group. I don’t see anyone that can replace Fabbro (especially with how he’s been playing).

Beginning of the year my opinion would’ve been different. Fabbro was a little lackluster last season, Boeser had a strong year, we just got Myers and he seemed like he could step into Fabbros place. But now, Fabbro has had a very strong year, Myers can’t find a regular spot on the roster, tomasino looks promising, Jeannot has exploded onto the scene, and boeser has as many points as Colton sissons. Boeser is also a rfa and is going to expect a big paybump</div></div>

Fabbro has been good, but I don't think he's irreplaceable at this point. And having another guy (if Forsberg is re-signed) that has 30 goal potential would be big for NSH. I don't see Tomasino, Sissons, Jeannot, or anyone on the current roster that has that potential at this point (though Duchene looks like he'll hit it this season -- but who knows which Duchene we get next year...). And then if Forsberg walks, there is a built in replacement in Boeser. I also think Boeser will sign around $6.5-7m. I don't see him making more than that, which I think is a doable number for NSH. And as for a Fabbro replacement, I think you could go after a guy like Miller on a 2-year deal and not lose much sleep over it.

I mean, I don't think there's any reason to make this trade right now, but I'd definitely consider it.
