I hate that 7x7 & 29 yrs # may be the only real credible option for the team.Seems we could not grab a star stud if the cows came home. And if we did it would implode an bust. I don’t mind term but without upgrades on D the team will still not be playoff bound unless goalies steal 20-25 games . That may be wishful thinking . for me the ? Is why has JB waited so long to upgrade the blue line aside from two D picks in draft with tons of promise ,we seem a long ways off yet from contending .

Just curious if you had the stats on how many of those were D men?

What does this trade do to the Seattle entry draft next year? Who will be vulnerable to be stolen at that draft? Mike Babcock just said the better your D is obviously the less time you spend in your zone! i don’t have zone stats but, but help is on the way

I like the fourth pick Ethan Keppen

JT Miller points will rebound big as he will get top line minutes this year.

The conservation principle is in full effect. So there is a need for a balanced temperament here. So will be cheering net year for that prized first over all lottery pick after 50 years. Who is next years prized prospect generational player on radar now?

Not sure where cap is at now? But on surface we will not be in hunt for high end studs on D unless of trade ? JB has struggled with trades a mixed bag . I can see no good coming, as he has now put his plays in corner an hemmed himself in. Everybody in league will no know he will have pay premium on any deals he does as per history

He is done at table he blew his load early his American side kick in executive suite was not able to wheel an deal wysebroad needs to be gone he has to much of JB ear.

As fan very disappointed that we have very few picks in first three rounds

Probably a conditional 1rst based on standing an points 50?make it the first . He will be approaching his UFA years soon on surface it would appear JB got fleeced here. Just my observations . He also USA center who has been playing wing

So does this mean Sutter an or BoHorvat are in trade cylinder?

Frack

?? Smurf skill no big d out there? Skilled guys?

So envious of teams with multiple picks in second round

Well at least pick is exempt from Seattle draft an gets sheltered

“Nooooooo”

JB looks like he is at a wake

Yes we get Boldy now?

Yes oilers way to go lol

Wings off board shocker wow

BPA just no more smurfs need some size can’t rely on UFA to fill that need

One step up forward an two back this happens , I guarantee JB won’t be around to see the team leap frog to the top..there are players in current draft position who will contribute to future success with out taking two back trade.(giving up two young players an or picks to upgrade draft order this year) Team still needs depth at three or four positions .

Bravo Charlie Foxtrot . The next moves for JB could prove to deadly or suitcase move if he fluffs for more deadweight signings .This will effect fan base support also . I think JB is scating in thin ice side of the pond an is a reason he will be draft focus in Vancouver to keep his visibility high an enhance down the road opportunities. You have nailed the narrative rather royalty like fashion. Until July 1 I will hardly breathe .

I am not a dump an chase fan I think Goldie was just starting to get it an showed signs of coming around when Green dumped him to press box. Wasting free pick up players has no real value . All this exercise do was help Goldie to next level of his career, an it is apparent he will not be in Vancouver uniform. My checks an balances on coach Green are getting bit skewered now.I will say some times it was always gonna be gut check on Goldie an he failed to measure in that department for Coach Green .

Crazy arms race on if true
