Looks like Saad has found his mojo. He is playing with MacKinnon and Rantanen on the Avs top line. A couple goals and a few plusses, and his season stats are not that terrible anymore: 12gp, 5+3, -5 Maybe still not quite the player Sakic was hoping for, but the trajectory is there if he keeps on improving. He is what he is...Good enough on O, solid defensively, digs for the puck...

Saad has always been overrated. I mean any beer leaguer could have looked good being thrown onto a line with prime 19 and 81, right?

He is a good hockey player, but definitely owes Q a percentage of his $36m contract, for playing him so much and with so good players. Q kept at it even when Saad struggled at scoring.

Not unlike Jonny, Saad gives up O to play D. Is he worth $6 per? No. But I wouldn't turn down generous Stan either. A little surprising he didn't put up more points cause the puck really followed him in jr.

Stan didn't give him that 6mil. It was Kekalainen.
