  1. Maybe Allvin will give him warm milk and cookies and put him down for a long nap right before the draft starts
  2. I could be wrong but I believe that since he’s completed 3 professional seasons and played fewer than 80 games he’ll qualify to become a group 6 UFA at age 25. So he may be able to walk to free agency as soon as his KHL contract is finished.
  3. I’d think they’d be more interested in Hughes (only because of Pettersson’s contract status). Regardless, they aren’t moving that pick
  4. They need to qualify him this summer to retain his rights. But no team is going to trade anything for him at this point. Maybe in 2 years after his KHL contract expires. (If he doesn’t re-sign there at that time)
  5. I just don’t see it. Carlsson looks too good to rake on a big contract 30 year old and a couple of later picks
  6. Montreal has fantastic depth in most positions with good to very good prospects. What they lack is many potential superstars. The could get one at 5.
  7. Why would a rebuilding team give up a minimum of 7 years of team control on what’s expected to be a franchise C for a 30 year old with a huge contract that pays him until he’s 38?
  8. I don’t see any of the top 5 pick teams being willing to drop when there’s a clear drop off to the next tier after 5. And there’s not much to separate picks 6-12. So I don’t see the point
  9. If Hughes or Pettersson(C) aren’t in the return. I’d say it’s impossible. Obviously Vancouver wouldn’t do thst. And even if they considered it I suspect Pettersson’s contract status would make them decline.
  10. Drouin isn’t a center. They tried him as one in Montréal and it did not go well. Also. No way 3rd OA is available
  11. Going to be super interesting to see where he goes. I’ve seen him taken as high as 3rd and low as 14th in mock drafts
  12. It helps when elite players like Fox and Panarin are literally coming to you and refusing to play elsewhere.
  13. If I’m not mistaken this is the second time he’s taken his ball and gone home
  14. No. It’ll be like when Tryamkin bolted back to the KHL. He’s gone for a minimum 2 years. Vancouver will still own his rights for a time, but that’s the extent of their involvement
  15. I doubt that pick is remotely available. But if it was it would take more quality , less quantity to get it.
  16. Vancouver had a 3% chance. Anyone who is genuinely disappointed Vancouver win are the same people that can’t believe the 6-49 ticket they bought didnt pay out the jackpot. It was always a very long shot.
  17. To be fair. The Canucks hit the softest part of their schedule right at the end of the year and they didn’t have many injuries to contend with. They were going to go on a win streak either way
  18. New York fans talk about how bad his skating has been since he came into the league. It’s apparently a bit better this season but it doesn’t sound like he has “good speed”
  19. Not only that. But Vancouver can’t even do an offer sheet involving a 2nd round pick since they traded that pick away already
  20. I wouldn’t pay a high 1st for Lafreniere.
