Every aspect of Zadina's game has improved immensely...except his scoring. Not sure how much value he has as the perception builds that he's at best a second or third line player. Veleno has the same issue. Does a lot of things well out there, but hasn't forced the issue in GR by generating enough offense. Looks like he'll get another shot up here with the Stephens injury...but can he do that from the 4th line? Re the draft...we have multiple 2nd and 3rd picks this year...if we play our way down to that 12-15 range, there's ammo to trade up a bit if there's a player they really love

I can walk into Little Caesar's knowing I will soon be leaving with a hot pizza that will cost me $5. Is it a great pizza...no. It's not horrible either and I will have enough left over for lunch the next day. I have no complaints...

Rasmussen has improved his skating...he needs to finish around the net better. He's had opportunities to bury a few and missed. That was supposed to be his calling card. He's made some nice passes, he's winning face offs at a higher than 50% rate and he has been decent defensively. He blocks a lot of shots and his reach has served him well on the PK

One thing I've noticed this year...if you put Larkin in between a couple of wings that have skill, vigor and pep...he looks like a true #1 center

There were some questions about Raymond's top end speed during his draft year...looked pretty fast to me on that rush in OT
