    Default Dumba vs Spurgeon

    Who is going to take over the reigns as the #1 PP quarterback from Suter. Both players had about the same PP time last season. Spurgeon had more overall ice time (24:00 vs 20:00). Watching Spurgeon is like watching a Letang light IMO, same type of skating and head up puck moving skills. That said, I think most people believe Dumba is the heir apparent in Minny. What say you dobberites? Any guesses/predictions on next years scoring for these two?

    I'm going to guess Dumba gets more of the ES offensive minutes, but they continue to split PP time.

    Neither of them will make major inroads in PP time in 2017-18, is my prediction

    I think Spurgeon is vastly underrated. I am not sure either guy (Spurgeon or Dumba) is going to to overtake Suter any time soon, but I do like Spurgeon more than Dumba here.

    I agree that Suter is not going away anytime too soon, just curious on who of these two younger bucks might become the main go to PP guy in Minny. As well, curious about what folks think they will produce this year. It looks like around the same as last year is the consensus barring Suter going down with an injury.

    Spurgeon is better defensively and 2 of those 4 extra minutes are on the PK. He also gets hurt every year (like Letang). My money is on Dumba continuing his developement and ending up beside Spurgeon in Suter's role. Eventually.

    Next year Dumba out scores Spurgeon by 5 points.
