- Nhl playoffs 2024 round 2 has already begun but the four series - Edmonton oilers vs vancouver canucks , boston bruins vs florida panthers , dallas stars vs colorado avalanche and carolina hurricanes vs new york rangers game 1 will tell us plenty but I figured nhl picks today (done before any of them started) would be fun. Connor mcdavid jt miller brad marchand matthew tkachuk nathan mackinnon and more in second round should provide plenty of great entertainment. Nhl highlights today 2024 stanley cup playoffs

"But he does have a tendency to let in that back-breaking goal at the absolute worst time."
At the very least your Andersen prediction already came true 💀
4-3 rangers game 1 is crazy 💀
@@user-ci2kx5he9t it was hilarious watching the goalies at the start
Rangers vs Bruins and Oilers vs Stars in the conference finals. But, honestly, I'm just happy Vegas is out more than anything so far in this playoffs.
I think everybody is happy for the VGK falling off
It’ll be wild to see Rangers Bruins NHL and Knicks, Celtics NBA in both eastern conference finals
@@bigred12327 absolutely wild. 🤪
rangers florida
boston not consistent enough
@@YZER19 the Bruins consistency (after the Leafs struggle) is about to change the Bruins. Don’t forget they also beat the panthers every game in the regular season. And it’s not because Florida didn’t bring it.
I think most people will agree that Colorado and Dallas is going to be going to Game 7 its going to be a crazy series.
col will 4-2 em
Lolol
Don't think Johnny here watched the Avs/Jets series. Mackinnon and Rantannen were mostly not there until the end, even though they had like 9 points each or something like that. It was the secondary scoring. Leuhkonen, Nichushkin, Wood, Colton, Mittlestadt, and even Trenin, played amazing and got goals. The only line that wasn't a scoring threat was the 4th line and honestly? They didn't need to be. They were just savage to the Jets team. Dallas is deep, sure. But give credit where credit is due.
that was my thought as well, no mention of the colorado depth that carried the avs in round 1.
its crazy how the media outside of colorado still thinks that team is just mackinnon rantanen and Makar. Avs have sick depth
A bit disappointing to see someone say something like "if you have secondary scorers like Pavelski, Seguin, Duchene, and Benn" to justify the Stars winning and then not make the obvious parallel to Nichuskin, Lehkonen, Mittlestat, and Drouin (🤞🏻).
Also the fact that everyone thought the Jets defense and goaltending was their bread and butter and he just mentioned their defense and goaltending being a strong aspect so if they could destroy the jets defense I think its gonna be harder for Dallas but they can still be offensively gifted in their series
Nichushkin is by no means secondary scoring.
I like that everyone's picking the Canucks to lose. As Ali said, "We're gonna shock the world!"
I picked Van in 7, but ya, even I am wondering how that's gonna happen. I have this weird suspicion that Vancouver is going to win the first 3 games, then edmonton will win 3 games then we will have an epic game 7 overtime where someone like Joshua scores the winner in double overtime.
Col In 6
Van in 4
Fla in 7
NY in 6
Half of these did not age well
McJesus & Co in 7.
NY Strangers in 6.
Natty Mac & Co in 6.
The plastic rats vs. The Boston Rat...FLA in 6.
Next Round.
As a FLYERS fan this pains me to say....but NY over FLA in 7.
And I believe McDavid goes next level and the Oilers take care of the AVS in 5.
NY vs. EDM duel for Lord Stanley's Cup...
And Connor McDavid cements his legacy as 1 of the best ever to do it...
The Oilers in 5.
But the suprising part of the equation I believe will be Stuart Skinner is your 2024 Conn Smythe Trophy winner!!!
How's that for intrigue?
Not a Bad guess but i do think this year is Stanley cup Winner Will be the rangers
I agrees wit ya buddy Edmonton oilers all the way by’s !!! Wooih!! Let’s get er done by’s it’s been to long. It’s time to bring the cup home to where it belongs north of the border
I like the way you think.😊
Here’s hoping you’re right, just hope Skinner can stand tall and stay solid!
Rangers in 5
Panthers in 5
Avs in 5
Canucks in 6
no matter what the canucks do to prove to everyone how good they are. people still are sleeping on them
If Petterson was playing at his best there'd be a lot more doubt imo
Canucks will bring it in round 2, They always seem to find better gaps and holes in the ice against Edmonton. I am a fan of both teams, but the Canucks are my first love! I have to pick them in 7
I think it comes down to experience. The Canucks stars have very little playoff experience compared to the Oilers big 3
@@jallenps7 ya thats a fair point. atleast a canadian team will move on no matter what
The Jets had a stud in net and great defensive depth too but we saw how that went. Not to say that Colorado is likely to light up Dallas, who I think are showing that they're better playoff performers than Winnipeg, but if anyone's going to chase Oettinger from the net in these playoffs it'll be them.
Even as an Avs fan though I wouldn't be shocked to see Dallas come out on top. They basically have no weaknesses, they've got some seriously underrated players, and they always seem to be Colorado's kryptonite in the playoffs. Going to be a great series I think.
Well said. It's sad to see one of my favorites in west to fall off but it is what it is.
In the long run colorado relies too much on their top bois, dallas is my choice for the cup this year. Deboer truly deserves it too.
@@Kallogeethat was last year, this year the narrative that the Avs have no depth is total BS. Mittlestadt, Lehkonen and Nichushkin were the main play drivers against Winnipeg, not the big 3, Colton, Wood were all over as well
I honestly like how much people are underestimating the Canucks. I like being the underdogs. This team has shown all season and even in the playoffs that they’re a resilient team, and just find ways to win. Like what Tocchet said to these guys “meet pressure with pressure.”
Im really really hoping as an Edmonton fan it will be an Oilers vs. Canes final. It will be the rematch we have been waiting 17 years for
Yupppp
Oilers fan here too, Panthers past 2 seasons in the playoffs is the team I cheer for in the East, I felt bad for them last year getting destroyed and not looking like themselves in the final but them losing 2 years in a row would make me feel bad... plus Florida vs Oilers idk doesn't seem like crazy ratings... For ratings alone I think a final vs Rangers would be cool or even the Bruins
@@SimplyTheBestCSGO agreed bro
Avd vs Stars is gonna break my heart no matter how it goes. I think I put it out there in some of these comments that I'd play Annunen in the 3-1 situation just for the experience for a young goalie who is hot atm. It's nice to hear some love for the guy.
Anyway, Dallas definetly deserves some love and a deep playoff run BUT if Avs takes this one they can probably take it to the cup final but not to the end. I don't think canucks or oilers can handle Avs for the 7-game series but Florida is so hot that I think they will take it, unless they break themselves with the physicality.
Colorado depth everywhere
Unless in goal. Georgiev is not exactly the guy you win with, but neither was Kuemper or Adin Hill.
FLA 6, NYR 7, Stars 7, Oiler 5
You picked all the favourites. Bold.
"jake oettinger has been so on it right now" Remember what happened to your veizna winner folks. Avs in 6.
Vancouver in 7, Dallas in 6, eastern conference literally no idea
Edmonton vs NYR final
Edmonton's gonna beat the Canucks and Colorado/ Dallas ? I'm not sure . McDavid plays like crap against Vancouver. 91's gonna level his ass!
How sick would that be ! LETS GO !!!
@@jp6614 You really think that those three early season games are gonna be true now? They gonna lock in
nah EDM - FLA
@@prozac. no doubt ! But I lean towards the classics nothing against FLA but Oilers vs NYR would be a first and it would awesome 👊🏻🇺🇸🇨🇦
Watching this video was like hearing all my exact thoughts out loud. I 100% agree with all your predictions man.
Dallas in 6
Florida in 7
Canucks in 7
Canucks? Seriously?
Canucks ain’t winning
@@SkopedOT 13 goals in six games on the Oilers 22 lol
Hey anything can happen, that's why they play the games lol!
Hopefully we get a great series. Go Canucks go!! @@SaveznaRepublikaJugoslavija
@@SaveznaRepublikaJugoslavija lol, Canucks fans are sum of the dumbest fans out there
I don't make predictions but I'll just say this.....IF the canucks end up winning the series it will not be a surprise. If it happens and you think it's a surprise....you weren't paying attention.
Nucks played a great season. But not having Demko in net hurts them a lot. Hughes got pushed around pretty badly.
big tocchet fan here but I don't see the Canucks advancing
Same as far as not making predictions. I’ll simply say this about public perception of that series. One team has two superstars and has made decent runs in the playoffs the past couple years. The other was a surprise this season. So naturally, the Oilers will be most peoples pick and most will consider it a layup series. I give the Oilers and edge because of their recent experience but it also could go either way. I’m sure all of Canada will be watching this one closely
People keep forgetting that the Canucks win the west/ presidents trophy if Demko didn't get hurt. Also Nashville plays a really good defensive game hence the low scoring in that series. Oilers Canucks series will be a lot faster.
@@alexwinter3272yeah, well people also remember that Vancouver is always a coin flip. They go from 1st place 1 year to not making the playoffs the next with the same team core. This is long term history with the Nucks. People have a hard time believing that the team culture has the heart to go deep in the playoffs because they have very rarely proved it. The Oilers may have had their "decade of darkness" but those days have past. The Oilers historically have always been a threat to win a playoff series, they just have to get in to playoffs.
Rangers in 6, Florida in 5, Edmonton in 6, Colorado in 6
While I would love to throw in some arguments in one direction or another concerning the different matchups, I believe you nailed it. 100 % agreed on every single series (even though I believe my Oilers can do it in 5). Continue your great work, love your vids!
I think the Oilers should win the series but all the hype is making me worry.
I thought I was the only one worried! Go Oilers. In 6.
Im honestly just proud of the Canucks this szn. Whatever happens in R2, they beat expectations from analysts and their fans as well. Hope they can keep this core together and be contenders for a couple of years from now.
Dallas in 7
Canucks in 7 (OT)
Panthers in 5
Rangers in 6
Ik this is nhl only content but i would be interested if you talked about the U18 world juniors cause that was a hell of a game
oilers canucks is gonna be craaaazy. love both teams
Florida over boston
Rangers over Carolina
Avs over stars
Oilers over canucks
My predictions:
Stars Vs Avs: Stars in 7 (this one could go either way imo)
Oilers Vs Canucks: Oilers in 6
Panthers Vs Bruins: Panthers in 5 (think it’s gonna be similar to the ECF with Florida Vs Carolina last year where it wasn’t close on paper but every game could’ve gone either way. This is my least confident prediction, just wanted to change it up a little)
Carolina Vs Rangers: Rangers in 7
I have similar feeling for how this will go. West seems to be harder to predict. But NYR are so damn good atm so they might go for cup finals..
EDM in 6
DAL in 7
CAR in 7
FLA in 6
I want a 2006 rematch with EDM vs CAR in the SCF lol
Sometimes getting cold is a neckbraker while playing game 7 can get the room on fire
"Marek Malik" sent me lmao
Nice call on the "Freddie Anderson has a tendency to let in a back-breaking goal" as he did against Panarin in 3rd period of game 1. Wasn't "back-breaking" per se, as the Canes made it 3-4 and pushed to tie, but it was the eventual game-winning goal.
Great vid!
I say, FLA walks over the Bruins. I`m not sure if I should give the Bruins one or two games. But they looked flat in the last 3 games vs. the Leafs. And with all respect, Florida is a different animal. They made a solid TBL team look pretty bad. FLA in 5.
NYR - Canes is super difficult. I tend to the Rangers. I like their forwards more, Trocheck is huge for them and they have the heck of a D. Canes should have won that game, but i see them fall in 6 or 7.
Oilers - Nucks is another tight one. I don`t know if the Oilers are really that good, as the Kings have been one of the better matchups. In the regular season Vancouver pissed the Oilers off and always had an answer. Still, without Demko i think their goalie will cost them. Oilers in 6.
Dallas - Avs. Brutal. Two absolute loaded teams. But the Avs marched over the Jets, who have been a contender and undressed one of the best Ds - goalie combination in the league. That makes them the team to beat for me. Who ever comes out here should have the favorite status over Oilers / Nucks winner. Avs do it in 7.
If i had to bet on a final today, FLA vs. Avs woule be my bet.
Only teams left that i don`t think can win the cup: Bruins and Nucks. The other 6 have chances.
Well my Avs probably take game one against either team since their in a game seven and are really tired
Edmonton Florida Stanley cup finals. I am a bruins fan so that pains me to say, but hey. That’s my prediction. Series could go either way.
you aint a bruins fan then
@@benjlar1902 yea, He sounds more like a HOCKEY fan who shies away from the one-dimensional, Cognitive Dissonance of team "fans". Respect
Right there with you. I know the bruins aren’t contenders unfortunately. I have Florida winning it over Dallas.
Sorry but Canucks are beating the oilers.
Keep that same energy on Wednesday buddy lol
@@SkopedOTI’ll come back to this comment.
I agree.... there is zero chance Edmonton can beat Vancouver in a 7 round series. Their defense is better than it was at the beginning of the season, but Vancouver's defense is WAAAAAY better. Plus Vancouver has a more balanced forward group, while still having big guns at the top. Oh yeah, and Vancouver has WAAAAAAY better goaltending. Last I checked McDavid and Crysaitl are only two guys, and not a team.
@@MrPointmidget you're so stupid it hurts lol
Some facts for you:
-Since Nov 11 Skinner has a better sv % than Demko
- Oilers and Canucks have identical 5v5 goals against - but the Oilers have scored 23 more 5v5 goals in that time
-Even counting the first month before the coaching change, full season the Oilers are only a hair behind Vancouver defensively at 5v5 and a hair better offensively.
- Vancouver has had a slow but steady decline defensively at 5v5 mostly through the back half of the year.
- Edmonton and Nashville had identical goals against totals at 5v5 this year (and Edmonton was slightly ahead in the other possible situations) so Canucks are facing an equally stingy team who can score way more.
It will be a fun series with great hockey but you’re writing off a very solid team.
As a Canadian, I'm excited for the Canucks vs Oilers. However I'm also looking forward to the Rangers vs Canes!
what do you think of the golden cheaters getting eliminated? I still think Vancouver have a chance, atleast 7 for me
100% they have a chance it just depends how hungry they are, I can't wait for the Canucks/Oilers rivalry to go up in flames after these next years.
@@Sir_Sydney_live If the Canucks can get Pettersson to wake up they'll have a much better chance.
Absolutely they have a chance. The deciding factors will be how well they can re-adjust from Nashville to Edmonton style of play, staying out of the penalty box, EP, Garland, Hoglander and even Miller finding the net again and Demko returning (currently its looking like he'll be back for Game 2). The Oilers are very good but they are also inconsistent. They can go from a 7-0 steamrolling of a team to being a train wreck. They have better firepower but Vancouver has more depth and a better defence with 3 solid options in net vs the Oilers one average option. Skinner won the Oilers the Colorado series 100% but I'm not convinced he can maintain that level of play. Either way, it's going to be one helluva series!
Vancouver has the speed over Edmonton, this why they beat them all year.
No Demko, which sucks, but in faster hockey more injuries are bound to pop up.
Oilers will try to be physical, but once they lose 2 straight, they'll end up changing their play style. Oiler will chase Canucks to game 7. Series is a toss up for me.
@@sillythygoose 100%
Canucks in 5. Avs in 6. Rangers in 6. Florida in 7.
Oilers in 5
Avs in 5
Canes In 6
Florida in 4
Dallas is better
Why do so many people have goalies as their mvp? The easy choice which most of the times is wrong. So many second and third goalies playing well behind strong defense says alot
Canucks in 5
I can see swayman absolutely steal the series, that’s my prediction for the upset, cuz we all know something crazy gon happen.
I'm rooting for the Canucks, but I am realistic enough to see that the series with the Oilers is going to be carnage. Canucks or Panthers to win the Cup for me.
Dallas stars 3rd period last night was some of the best hockey I have seen in years. They look scary.
Which one you think is more likely.
@@voittolehti2432 Panthers probably
The Oilers don't have a "playoff" goalie, or Norris-caliber defensemen, which has been proven is a must to make it past round 2 over data from the last 30 years. Canucks in 6. Though I think it's definitely going to be Col vs Van in the Western conference final, with Col taking it in 5. Also, I think the Panthers are going to destroy NYR once Rempy gets suspended in game one of Panthers vs Rangers. Panther Vs Avs in the final. Panthers winning the Cup.
@@MrPointmidget I am nervous about the goalie situation with the Canucks, though. Silovs had a couple of great performances against the Preds, but I haven't really seen much of him to get properly excited. Let's see what happens with Demko, and if Silovs starts a few more, fingers crossed that he can perfom against the Oilers top scorers.
And I really hope the Rangers go down in flames and rempe does get suspended. That hit against van riemsdyk of the Caps was pure filth
Canucks will surprise you
Avs, oilers, bruins, don’t care.
Florida in 4
Canes in 7
Avs in 6
Oilers in 5
Stars secret weapon in the 4th line. Not one line isn’t lethal and the fourth line is insanely balanced and defensive minded
Avs fan here. This is accurate--watched the Stars vs VGK series and the fourth line for both teams was shockingly strong.
@@antipostmodernistgonna come back here quick to say great series. Fought till the end and didn’t make it easy for us. Good luck next season
@@KennyHavoc Appreciate it, bud. Wish there was less drama around the Avs in the post-season, but the Stars are a wagon regardless. Hope they take it home!

BOS in 7
NYR in 5
Yes this second round will be absolutely lethal, much watch hockey. Every team has amazing players😁😁😁😁
It's time for some favorites choking, which probabilistically is always a must during playoffs and history always corroborates, so ... East: Canes/Bruins; West: Avs/Canucks
These are my predictions to a T as a Bs fan, I just don't see it happening against Florida. If Oettinger continues to look as solid and calm as he has I definitely think Stars make it to the cup. On the eastern side I think it's the Rangers' year. Dallas wins that in 7.
very sly by coach Tocchett...putting it out there he wonders if the refs are" just going to let them play"....subtle code for "please to give the Oilers any power plays"
Rangers in 5
Panthers in 6
Avs in 7
Canucks in 6
R2 Winners: Panthers, Rangers, Canucks, Avs
Bruins in seven
Canucks in six
Dallas in six
New York in six
I’m pick 4 teams to move on in the final 4.
1) Stars in 7
2) Oilers in 6
3) Rangers in 7
and 4) Panthers in 6.
All or nothing in the postseason to make that happen could be anything worth it.
Canucks will win the Stanley Cup 2024
The Conn Smythe Trophy will be split between
Arturs Silovs for stopping everything
Nikita Zedorov for pounding everything
then I woke up
it was a good dream considering I'm a sixty year old Nuck Fan
Same too had a dream the Canucks finally have a Stanley Cup parade rolling down West Georgia St.
I’m sorry to say, as a oilers fan and a nucks fan, I don’t think this series is gonna go good for the Canucks, but I’m super excited for it
No, Silovs will get 12 straight shutouts and win the con smythe
Oiler fan here.
People from Van keep saying they wrecked the oilers in the season series.
True. However, 3 of those 4 were before Knobloch/Coffey got onboard. that 4th game, the oilers held their own and lost by one goal (I don't count empty netters for the sake of this argument). I don't think the VAN/EDM series will be a cakewalk like anyone from either side is saying.
Hey johnny we really need a video about makar because this guys is so underrated in the league and people seem to not understand how he take is team to another level like he did 2 year ago on that avs run
Panthers in 5
Canes in 5
Oilers in 6
Stars in 6
Then Canes in 7
Stars in 6
Canes in 6
I had every first round series correct (Also had Stars in 7 and couldn't understand why so many were picking them in 4 or 5) so this just follows the pathing I've been on before the postseason started
confused at your perspective on the Avs. Otter was almost equally as up and down all season as Georgiev was. CO has similar depth up front with their deadline pickups as well as vets who have won the cup. PLUS they have superstars and with the addition of Walker an equally nasty D-Core. I'm sorry but if Hellebuyck couldn't steal the series for the jets, I don't see a worse goalie in Otter doing it. Avs in 5, maybe even 4 with a depleted Stars
Oilers in 6
Rangers in 7
Florida in 6
Avs in 7
The widespread dismissal of the canucks is wild. Did these guys even nwatch the canucks this year?
Same 4 as you for me, no joke
"I'm not cheating" while showing Will Karlsson... good one. ;)
Edmonton and Colorado are so streaky it really depends on which version we get. They are both unstoppable when rolling.
Edmonton in 4 or Vancouver in 6
Colorado in 5
NYR in 6
Florida in 5
As an Avs fan that's how I see it too. If they both stay playing like round 1 Dallas and Vancouver are in for some serious issues
I hope second round is good. Aside from a couple series round one was limp.
Edm in 5, carolina in 6, dallas in 5, florida in 5 those are my picks.😊 Lets go oilers.
Panthers in 6
Carolina in 7
Edmonton in 6
Colorado in 7
Since the 2015/2016 NHL season the teams that win game 7 in OT are 7-0 in the next series.
FLA - BOS (W vs TOR)
NYR - PIT (W vs CAR)
DAL - COL (W vs VGK)
CAR - WSH (W vs NYI)
SJS - VGK (W vs COL)
STL - DAL (W vs SJS)
PIT - OTT (W vs NSH)
NYR in 7
FLA in 5
EDM in 6
COL in 7
I agree with 3 of 4, but think Colorado has woke up and will win that series in 6. Only other difference is the Rangers in 6 instead of 7. If the Referees swallow their whistles in the All-Canadian series it will be a toss up, otherwise Oilers may sweep.
Florida in 5
NYR in 7
Vancouver in 7
Colorado in 6

No they won’t buddy
Praying with my flames fan friend that the canucks win
As an Oiler fan, it is my duty to hate Calgary. But, I have some respect for them. Lanny and Iggy are class acts. Even though the fans rib each other, it hardly ever crosses the line. Vancouver fans on the other hand are just rowdy and mean spirited. I am pretty sure a good portion of Calgary fans want both of us to lose but hate Vancouver even more.
Canucks vs stars and rangers vs bruins
The Stars are one of the most balanced teams, but there also one of the least "playoff" teams in the playoffs. I think Colorado will beat them.
I would take that Avs defense over the stars defense
You would? I mean I know that georgiev wasn’t the best in game 1 but even when the jets were playing pretty mid, they weren’t getting back fast enough to stop them from getting high danger chances
I would’ve picked Vegas over Colorado in a first round matchup
@@wyattmays7341 yes, the highest scoring defense in the NHL the past couple years
@wyattmays7341 That was more of a story for G1. The Avs did a great job breaking up scoring chances from G2-G5. I'd rather take the Dallas D as far as defense is concerned but otherwise Avs D for scoring and transition. I think the Avs would have swept the Knights but I'll think they'll take down Dallas in 6. If it goes to 7, Dallas wins.
@@owenproctor3885 yep, as a team Dallas plays a more structured defense system but when it comes to pure talent of a d core its the Avs.
If Dallas wants to get into a rush competition and open the game up, I’d say advantage Avs especially if Drouin comes back.
Canucks in 6, Avs in 6, Rangers in 7, Panthers in 6
Canucks in 6? You must have a concussion. lmfao
@@metalmarty3948 We'll see 🙈
@@metalmarty3948 Styles make fights. Playing defensive against Edmonton just invites their attack. Canucks are more a sniper type with their insane PDO...just think they'll keep pace scoring wise and they're as deep. Deeper on defence and quite punishing physically with big blue liners. Lindholm is an elite checking forward, even if he isn't scoring at the rate he used to. Goaltending is an issue but they beat a gritty Nashville team with their third stringer. I think the Oilers are overestimated as a team. Two games where McDavid has a game is inevitable, pretty much can bank on it. So yeah, Canucks in 6!
Let’s go Canucks!!!
@@Anfimus wouldn't be shocked!
florida in 5
rangers in 6
oilers in 7
dallas in 5
That’s sounded the exact same as what people said before the Aves/Jets series. No elite goalie, yada yada, not as good depth, I think the depth of the aves is one of the best in the league and the way they dismantled the best defensive team in the league shows how dangerous they are. They really can do damage. Honestly it could go to game seven but at the same time if the aves are firing it could end up exactly like the series with the jets
Fantastic video! I will say though your takes are always on point, but i disagree with two of them. Canes have had such a wild last couple of years, where they are CONSTANTLY the cup favourite and lose. I think they are in it to win it, and even though they dropped game 1, canes in 6. Also, literally everyone is doubting the Canucks right now, 23/24 espn reporters said OIL>, but the canucks have so much depth, especially on their defencive end that can totally bring the shots down. And even Silovs or DeSmith can take care of the loose change. As well, Oilers star power constantly doesn't show up when it matters. I may be a little biased as a flames fan beacuse im going to the game 5 in Vancouver, and hate the oilers with a passion, but im still convinced itll be VAN in 7.
Canes in 7, Bruins in 6, Stars in 7, Oilers in 5.
Canucks in 6. Even without Demoko they play like a well oiled machine.
Oilers rely on McDrai to power them and hang on for dear life.
Canucks have better D, matchup options at c, and depth.
