Yeah, I asked about minutes because the numbers seem really squishy even on less balanced teams (I assume due to line blending, special teams, etc.) but people talk/write about it like it’s a commonly understood thing. At one point I asked this elsewhere and got 20 min = top 6, 15 min = 3rd line, 5 min = 4th line, and then I looked at the numbers around the league and concluded that by that standard basically no one has a real top 6 (or 4th line for that matter). This year there are 59 forwards with ATOI over 19m. Only six teams have 3 (COL, EDM, NYR, PIT, TBL, TOR) and three teams have none (ANA, SEA, DAL - who I thought had a rep as a one-line team like COL).
If Schultz is still around after trade deadline then Francis shouldn’t be. Kraken handling of their young guys has been problematic; Kartye and Evans should be playing full time
Didn't mean he was a top five goalie, but that he is playing like one. He's 4th in save percentage and tied for 5th in GAA. Other teams would pay a premium for those numbers. -Dylan
@@emeraldcityhockey5810 sample size tiny. He’s got huge holes in his game that teams are going to continue to scout and hammer on. He’s unplayable in the shootout. I’ll keep telling people to pump the brakes till reality sets in
I'm very proud to have converted Dylan into a David Goyette fan

And MacKinnon/Rantanen average over a minute more TOI than the third place (Kucherov).
With how long it's gonna take our prospects to cook the minors the Kraken sure better re-sign Eberle
Need to get Dylan and RJ on the Borgen train. If he gets traded I’ll be distraught
cant believe that deal they they gave Grub. Bonehead move.

Don’t think you have to worry. I’d guess Schultz and Wennberg are gone for sure since Evans and Wright would replace them.
Dang right. Well said ,sir.
😂😂 you think Joey is a top 5 goaltender. Just no
