  1. JV needs to turn Miller into a draft pick
  2. We could be underwhelmed by a d man in junior or we could be thrilled with a gritty rookie LW on pace for 20 goals
  3. This team is not good enough to get out of the bottom 5 teams time to go full rebuild. Trade: burrows salary retained for 2nd and maybe resign in off sesson trade Hansen salary retained for 1st miller salary retained for 3rd with cleared cap take on a bad contract along with an asset that's 6picks in first 3 rounds, let Benning do his drafting thing
  4. I really want mittelstadt but I bet he goes 3rd to vegasVegas
  5. I mean if he is patrick cane, or johnny hockey good than sure, but if he is schroeder good then no thanks. I think at this point in our organization's evolution, we can't risk a pipck on this guy if we only have 1 st rounder, I mean even 2 and I might pass on this guy.
  6. It looked like Benn just bounced right off him Boing!!!!
  7. Boeser/Gaudette/Zhukenov and maybe Jasek and Brisebois could all play games in the NHL at some point, for the few numbers of picks we had, this draft looks good.
  8. Yeah dude looks awesome maybe we could arrange a trade for Ericcson where we eat cap and trade him for a first
  9. No thx to kailer, our top 6 lacks size and skill and atcthe top of this draft there are way better options: Patrick, vilardi, Tippett, hirschier, Rasmussen etc
  10. sbisa gets exposed as "bait" I think JB would not mind getting his salary off the books with the development of Tryamkin and stretcher.
  11. good point. But I think from 3-7 there are guys who are pretty close to equal Vilardi/Tippett/Rasmussen/Hischier/Comtois/
  12. How is this a weak draft guys like vilardi, Tippett, Rasmussen, nico, middlesteadt, look way more appealing, than Dubois there is no generational players here but lots of top line talent get 2 firsts in the top 12/15 and that would be amazing
  13. my strategy would be to get as many firsts as possible, like 2-3. If one is late and Oettinger is available, I would pick him based on asset value. He may have a better college career than demko.I would then flip one of him or demko in several years for a developed player. Outside of top 2, I am high on rasmussen, valardi and middlesteadt, no doubt tippett looks good. With Juolevi, hutton, tanev, stretcher, tryamkin, brisbois, olson, I think that is enough depth to pick the best 2 available forwards Not to bring up the past but man o man... Mallet over Damon severson (developed by Kelowna rockets d man factory) Jensen over Boone Jenner (they played on the same line, but Gillis dis not want another centre as he stated they had enough centres shinkaruk over shea theadore ( a local boy, big rugged d man with great numbers in his draft year) Virtanen over nylander Juolevi over tkachuk there are certain maxims like - if there is a stud d man from the kelowna rockets available, draft him, if there is a stud forward from the london knights, draft him.
  14. thanks for the info... Noah Juulsen looked great! Tanev and burrows max salary retained for Juulsen and sergachev lol
  15. aside from the top 2 Rasmussen, Vilardi and Tippett are off to pretty awesome starts, middlestedt pretty good as well. I think we should draft middlestat and rasmussen
  16. do skille and chaput really give you more than virtanen? WTF WD
  17. I would love to see what JB could do in a strong draft year with 5-6 picks in the top 80. we are now 4th worst team in the NHL and we are dropping - I mean, I expect nashville and NYI to surpass us. It will be between VAN, CAR and ARZ for Nolan Patrick. Maybe CBJ will also drop off. Aside from Nolan and Timothy, I am interested in: Mittlesteadt Vilardi Rasmussen Foote
  18. The Canucks will likely be a lottery team but id like them to embrace a rebuild and trade for more first round picks. edler should get you a 1st + Hansen should get you a 1st+ it would hurt to lose Hansen- developing into a leader and 2 way top 6 forward, but it opens up a spot for us to protect both Granlund and Gaunce. thinking outside the box here, Ericcsson or Granlubd could be moved for a 1st- ericcson has a nmc but F that and we could eat cap to facilitate a good trade.
  19. Jake will play his role into a trade. At this point feels like a Kassian- coho trade for kids who can't play good and can't do other things good too
  20. Sbisa is 3 games into a season where he is playing as a above average no 5 d man leaving him exposed decreases the chances that more valuable players like Granlund or Hansen will be taken. Sbisa has a big contract for a no 5 d man especially when over the next 2 years we will have to integrate tryamkin, stretcher, juolevi and maybe subban You ou have to draft well. if we took Jenner over Jensen and Shea Theadore over shinkaruk this team looks like a contender
  21. The answer is to package multiple players for a better single forward and leave sbisa or Miller as our obvious best player exposed. hansen + Granlund + tryamkin for Shea Theadore and rackell
