Don't give in KA, hold steady and don't settle.

I like Jones but 9.5?!

Drysdale and #3

that's a breach of the CBA

Would rather have ANA, PHX, or LAK 1st in 2022 or 2023 instead of this year.

Just glad Risto won't be there to rui... I mean, mentor him.

Power has to be the pick now.

Soooo 2nd pairing guy in BUF?

Wallstedt or Cossa?

If anything I'm less concerned about them getting bamboozled.

Can't believe he's finally gone. And for the 13th OA, plus? Well done KA!

Agree 1000%. I also don't think a trade happens for another couple of weeks.

Sheahan and Power still keep in touch, regularly texting and FaceTiming. Sheahan argues his old Steel defenseman would be in the conversation for the top pick even if he were a few inches shorter. “I still think he’d be the best defenseman that I’ve ever coached or player that I’ve been around if he were 6-foot-2. It makes it even more exceptional, not less, that he’s that big,” Sheahan said. “His approach, his mindset, and the way he thinks the game is really what’s elite about him. "

A 3 way deal might make the most sense.

lol, Power does look a lot like Clark Kent! You inspired me to do the rest haha

Predict the top 10 picks in order, 1 thru 10. 1 point for each correct pick. Whoever finishes with the most points will officially be crowned Sabrespace Draft King. I'll go first... Power Eklund Clarke Guenther Beniers Hughes Johnson McTavish Edvinsson Wallstedt

Then they need 2 goalies. The good news is they're apparently in discussions w Linus, so we know it isn't a hard no (at least not yet) from Ullmark's camp.

After an exhausting 10 minutes of research here is my final top 10 rankings... Owen Tower of Power Wild Bill Eklund Kent the Big Johnson Brandt Clarke Griswald Dylan Gunner Guenther Mason Jar McTavish Matt Bust Beniers Luke Jack-Quinn Hughes Jesper "already better than Hutton" Wallstedt Simon "too tall to get picked higher" Edvinsson

It's almost like you're penalizing him for being tall haha. Elite hockey sense, skating, and composure. First player in history to win the Worlds before being drafted. Sure, he's not perfect, not by a long shot, but when you look at the total package, as a defenseman, is rare.

I like Ullmark he's good, but can he stay healthy? You can't go into the season assuming he's your starter... you need a 1A and 1B.

Pump the brakes folks, my source says nothing is close.

Disagree. The worst thing they could do is panic and accept a subpar deal just because. It could be today, next week, next month or mid-season.... their goal hasn't changed.

Ullmark resigned? Due to injuries?

Nothing is happening until the dust settles. Prolly early-August would be my best gue... I mean, aS pER mY SouRCE.

IMO the lack of trades was because teams learned a valuable lesson from the Vegas draft... not to give up futures to protect exposed players.
