Are you talking about DJ? I understand the concern there unless RB or Berg really comes on this spring. Outside of DJ you have no clue (neither do I) how those guys will be playing in March.
You may be 100% correct but it’s silly, IMO, to assume that we know what this team will look like in 2 to 3 months.
DJ won't be playing this year. That is a given.
As to the others ....you are correct you have no clue. Nor do I.
But let's theorize the odds......how many players go from a non producer on Jan 1 where we are now ........to a productive scorer by March 1?? Very Rare. Moreover, the high usage rate of the Big 3 makes supplemental productive scoring by others even more rare chance to happen.
There are only 20 regular season games left.
Even if one of the other youngsters somehow miraculously DO breakthrough & have a few "decent" games in those 20 games......that would be nice & welcomed, but still be nothing to plan around or plan by for next year. People thought that with Heide last year, gave us glimpses...and has again this year. Still not a player to count on as a productive starter.....this year.
