NYIFC Comments:
Market value for this production, and no risk of it being a lottery pick, he's clearly having a career season, and being sold high, but he's also had some big slumps this year, we'll see, he's here to stay.

Ultimately, they are too tired, with an awful schedule, and completely exhausted. I don't think the players are going through the motions with their words, they should be tired with no breaks, but there is no place to hide. Tank looks empty, and teams they are playing are more rested, and have the extra step. Varlamov is not going to hold under this many games/pucks, no trade for a quick UFA problem fixes this. We'll see if something clicks.
