  1. Good seeing value on our picks. Eliteprospects had him at 104th and we got him at what 208th! Can’t argue this pick.
  2. I think the nice thing is that when management told us BPA was their path especially early in the draft they weren’t lying. Other teams prioritized centers and dmen which led some wingers to slide in the draft. Lekkerimaki was the best player available!
  3. David Goyette is still available! High priority selection on a bad OHL team. Kid plays center, good F/O numbers, one of the better skaters in the draft and over a ppg. Oh nvm see now Seattle got him at the end of the 2nd. That’s a steal!
  4. Can they? I don’t think a Miller market can come to fruition until free agency when some teams strike out on available centers.
  5. I like it only for the fact it takes an option away from Toronto and Edmonton. Sleeper team on the goalie market is NJD they have cash so I imagine they’ll take the best goalie on the market leaving Edmonton and Toronto scrambling!
  6. Hoping Alvin works some magic and gets a 2nd round pick so he can get David Goyette!
  7. Guess we’ll need some teams to strike out in free agency.
  8. Hoping Kasper goes early don’t really want him with our pick. Seems limited offensively but just a safe pick because he’s at least a bottom 6 guy.
  9. I was going off their proposed offer before. I am aware it got moved in the Copp deal when they advanced further in the playoffs.
  10. I’m excited to see a trade proposal from the Rangers with at least 1 premium future piece though. Their 1rst (30th overall), Lundkvist (small bottom pairing RHD) and Chytil are all B or less prospects.
  11. Some might prefer JT’s game. Plays a heavier style playoff game and a more premium position. Also plays in every situation.
  12. Cap strapped team finding a cheaper alternative to what Kuemper is gonna cost. Kuemper to Edmonton or Toronto?
  13. Yeah LTIR is gonna save the Penguins at the end of this contract. Sucks Luongo was the only guy to say no to LTIR and just outright retire. Such a dumb rule.
  14. Well we’ve had 2 top 7 picks in the last 8 years that aren’t as good as those players. If they really like a player you eliminate the risk of drafting a Virtanen or Juolevi. I’ll admit Anderson and Dvorak are very underwhelming names for the 7th overall but Ottawa be crazy. They did just draft Tyler Boucher (ranked late 1rst-2nd round pick) 10th overall just last year. Also maybe Ottawa would be dumping that Matt Murray contract in the deal with the 7th overall.
  15. I’d rather have Garland with contracts involved over both Anderson and Dvorak. If the Canucks are interested in a guy like Marchment and clearing cap I’d be happy with Garland for 7th and signing Marchment for a portion of that Garland cap space.
  16. Had a very impressive season! I’d be a fan but would love to move out some cap in Pearson or Dickinson before the signing.
  17. The thing is most of the people I also see talking bad about him are NJD fans. They talk about him a lot in the ways we talk about Dickinson. I’m just not wanting another bottom 6 winger that’s looking to make 3.5 million. They say he’s big but plays soft and can’t win faceoffs so while listed as a Center plays the wing. We can’t waste cap space by spending so much on meh bottom 6 pieces.
  18. Was listening to Dan and Sat with Serevalli and they kept talking about the NJD’s and JT Miller. Also brought up Jesper Bratt and for a team with as much money as the Devils and why as an RFA he wasn’t signed yet. They thought maybe he’s their main piece in a proposed deal they have on the table for JT Miller. Haven’t really seem much of anybody dropping his name in any proposals so thought I’d mention it. They’ve also been linked to Garland I believe and wonder how much it’s worth to have a guy locked in on a good contract and if not JT Miller could they be crazy enough to go Garland for Bratt?
  19. I have no idea why. The guy is Jason Dickinson with a different name. An overpaid bottom 6 Center that can’t win enough facoffs to even stay at Center. I’ll pass on the overpriced bottom 6 wingers.
  20. I think somebody would give him at least a 2 year deal. With his reputation and still being a point a game player. I bet he’s looking for 3 but some teams will go 2 years. You won’t get him on a 1 year deal.
  21. Both kind of help the case for the Raptors in the hunt. With those factors in play for trades with Phoenix and Miami I wonder if the best package they could get would be OG, GTJ and a bunch of picks. With us having Barnes and Siakam as untouchables. Also if not for Durant I wonder if being a third party team in to help facilitate Durant to Pheonix where we get Ayton is an option.
  22. McDonagh is still serviceable. However I wouldn’t want to sign up for his ages 33-37 year old seasons at that cap hit. Fantastic job by Tampa to clear that cap space!
