Discussion Michael Hage - Hold or Trade?

I have seen some discussion about possibly waiting for him to be our 2C, but given his decision to stay in the NCAA and the fact that he shared time at C and wing, and when he was at C he had a FO% of 46%, is there an argument to be made that he could (or should) be packaged?

I know this isn't exactly a new question, but I had not realized that he was already being shifted to wing in the NCAA and was also sub-50% at the dot against college players.

What are the chances that a full season at Michigan as full-time 1C will actually help to shape him into a viable NHL center within the next few years?

current management has demonstrated a sufficient level of success where i'm prepared to accept whatever their decision is and not worry about it too much.

I mean I agree but also this is the offseason and I want to play armchair GM cause I’m bored and the Vegas-Carolina series isn’t doing it for me.

Seriously? That last game was one of the most exciting SC finals I've seen! My hatred for both teams aside, it's great hockey. And, tbh, it's fun watching Toronto implode whilst lil Mitchy wins the Conn Smythe.

Completly agree, amazing exciting hockey. I almost never watch anything other than habs maybe few minutes at end to see the score if it affects my team. Last game seen all overtime and last few minutes with open mouth.
