POSSIBLE PERFECT GAME ALERT Two outs in 8th Domingo Germán

Guys with a what, 25% shot of making the NHL, several years down the line? I don’t think it matters at all, if it wasn’t going to be a first round D selection. We need to address RHD immediately, let alone before these draft picks would potentially hit (you know this obv just putting it out there). Provided the RHD addition is sustainable, being so young the top 4 is set for a while, so we kinda have a long time to replenish the pool, so I’m not sure it being 2nd rounders tomorrow is necessary. It’s more of a unique case cause Dahlin Power Samuelsson are so young. Gives us time. I’m sure a few come up purely by BPA over the next couple rounds

Add it to the Everything Kevyn Adams Has Tried to Get Done thread! Considering there were no deals today at all, can’t really blame him.

Our prospect pool is looking weak at D, but it shouldn’t matter considering the youth and talent on the nhl D core currently - as long as they make a significant move or two to address RHD in the now term. Can replenish the high end D pool later, and some of the depth tomorrow. But there would be years to do it. At forward the pool looks stacked, I think our top 5 rivals any other team and surpasses most, maybe even all. You can haggle with the rankings but 1 Benson 2 Savoie 3 Kulich 4 Östlund 5 Rosen - 6 Johnson Adding a new #1 to an already strong unit is always exciting I think top 5 are their own tier and coincidentally first D on list imo would be at 6 in RJ. Obviously Levi I’ve just graduated already

Not one trade the whole draft is crummy lol Maybe tomorrow. They always hype it up though

Another playmaker is kinda cool, too, imo. Lots of the other guys are more shoot first sick feeds are the best anyways

Totally. People should be more ok with a trade to supplement the “now “ roster because of this

Seems like a good pick based on consensus ranks

A plethora of options

No trade

ASP dark horse

“We have a trade to announce”

Benson in play maybe?

They should trade it for Hellebuyck

Axel Sandin

Flyers are up. Love the pick

Getting roasted for not trading down on sportsnet

Lol even he was surprised

Relative to his ceiling, sure. His pace is still 35 goals per 82 the last 2 seasons, though. For him that’s certainly “down” but a lot of that is system, too Still only 25

His hair has been an alarming issue for a while - - - Mostly just health, he’s still the best player in all the Dubois wheeling and dealing by far. He’s got 108 points in his last 111 games with Columbus over the course of the previous 2 seasons, an 80 point pace. Just needs to stay on the ice 56 in 56 52 in 55

Cap space for Vegas. Just signed Eichel’s winger Barbashev to 5x5

If you’d have told Jets fans this is all they’d have left from Laine, they wouldn’t be happy though

Seriously. Who does the first post even refer to? One guy, if that? So tiring

Whatevs. It’s yous thread.

Depends whether you care more about what he says, or what he does
