For anybody looking to see, here is a completely rough statistical breakdown from last season over 82 games:

[Nick]

Killer deal. Of course the 2 smashes the 1 for stats, dunno which side I'd like to be, love the bodies involved.

[shooker]

Yea definitely cant compare two, in fact you better win stats when getting two players.

Like it for mike but shep needed this. Good trade.

[Nick]

@MikeHeika: Jim Nill just announced Jamie Benn is the next captain of the Stars.

[Peter]

Would be fair if goc wasn't going to slide down depth chart with my boys Barkov and trocheck taking over (and bjugstad)

Absolutely. I only posted the stats because I like to look them up when people make trades and CBS is a cunt.

They keep saying Goc is gonna get moved down but it never happens. As one of their few steady and reliable forwards I don't see his roll getting diminished this year.

He will always find a spot on the 3rd line C position.

Guys like Barkov, Bjugstad, etc could be centres, could be wingers. Also remember Weiss is gone so one of the youngins will be taking his spot.

Goc will be 3rd line C as always.

Its already been released that Matthias is going to center Versteeg and Huberdeau on the top line to replace Weiss.
