      Exactly. As the adage goes, correlation doesn't equal causation. But there've been so many players in the Sullivan era leave the Penguins and thrive, and conversely come to Pittsburgh and struggle, I can't believe it's just bad luck. It happens far too often.

The recent problems have been from terrible management from the gm. They should have been more successful now, but jarmo was far too quiet when he needed to be loud, and lots when he needed to be quiet.

    So happy for Tex the three of them have found this chemistry. Felt beginning of season he was sometimes found out of place on the ice when his line got stripped out of the puck, he's never been a 2-way forward with a strong D side by any mean and never will be, but now we're finally seeing some progression in most aspects of the game with him and what nylander brings on this line is giving him the excitement he needed to thrive.

    I think he can be a 3rd liner on the right team especially if he commits to playing harder defensively he's definitely on a good streak that's not sustainable long term in all likelihood but maybe CBJ has found a solid 35-40pts contributor for their 3rd line during their weird retool/attempting to contend faze

    He will never achieve the level his brother has but that's what people used to say, I think he has a chance because Artemi Panarin is kinda similar and was doubted during the draft and showed up for Chicago alongside Kane. I think Nylander can be great if he keeps up this level of play, he might just become a first liner in his career after all
