Johansson is the type of player teams feel comfortable adding, stars don't get dealt at the deadline very often anymore, Johansson is a strong option. Should net a pretty good return, like a 2nd+

Man Hall's getting kinda torched on /r/hockey - some of the stories people are sharing about him as a kid fresh out of junior are rough.  Kinda sorta sounds like he was.. a major douche.

That said, people change and grow, and clearly Hall has become more of a mature leader during his time here.

I'd say Anderson was more of a douche for coming up to him and saying that line about his record.

Boy I hope so. I would be elated.

But just remember according to the flyers broadcast he is having a difficult year...... 

What does that make Nolan Patrick’s season? Downright terrible? 

Patrick 51 GP 12 G 11 A 23 P -4

Hischier 54 GP 17 G 25 A 42 P +5 (best on team)

Anyone who remembers the 2017 draft build up knows it was going to be either Hischier or Patrick, sure looks like the Devils made the right call.

FWIW, Patrick does have 12 points in his last 13 GP...but he’s had bursts like that before.

Definitely way too early in this “race” to call a winner (guys this young develop at different rates), but I’m very happy that it’s Hischier who’s here.  He’s just felt like the right choice since Day 1.

For sure. You can never tell with drafts. It seems entirely possible that Vancouver actually got the best player out if that draft but who knows? In another 2 years time it will all be a lot clearer.

Especially true when it’s a weaker draft with no consensus #1 pick. Like when the Oilers drafted McDavid, that was pretty low risk.

Wonder how often he uses that during games...

Or maybe some of Hynes' players don't realize that "That was putrid!  Do it again!" doesn't actually mean "Do it again, just as putrid!!!" ?  That he's really saying "That was putrid!  Do better!" 

Maybe that's been the problem this whole season...
