  1. If we somehow got 1st, we have to pick Reinhart, he's from West Van or North Van can't remember. Do you realize how it's like a 30 min drive to rogers arena from there. Ekblad is Weber quality but we need to pick the guy that instantaneously replaces Henrik.
  2. Virtanen is pretty young. Wouldn't mind him at all if we draft 7+
  3. Hope we can get him to sign for 3 years at 1.7. Then he'll be a sleeper 30 goal scorer in another year.
  4. Nashiville, Calgary, Carolina, NYI, and WPG can all pass us if we fizzle out. We'd pick 4th.
  5. Watch his playoff performance, I have a feeling he's been coasting for about 10 games now.
  6. My dream lineup in 2 years. Daniel retires, Booth bought out, Kesler for Couturier and Laughton we draft Dal Collie Dal Collie Couturier Kassian Shinkaruk Henrik Jensen Matthias Horvat Laughton Higgins Gaunce Burrows Santorelli Richardson Hansen Fox Notice how the bottom 4 actually replace injury for depth with skill, scoring, speed, and two way game.
  7. When players like Sestito are replaced with Higgins and Santorelli on the depth chart, we'll begin to see our dominance return.
  8. I am just looking a t hockey DB but yea, even in Buffalo he was misused, and Buffalo was starting to decline around then anyway. Not to mention how bad we've been. This is what's so exciting, it isn't just Kassian getting better, it's Jensen, and Stanton, and Horvat and whatever top 5 pick we can somehow luck out on that will all develop together. And the prospects that Kesler brings back. It's going to be a complete wave of youth that pushes Booth, Sestito, Dalphe, and Schroeder out the door. and have a team that can roll 4 lines like a champion. Let's have Hansen Santorelli Higgins and Richardson as a bottom 4 instead of Sestito Schroeder Archibald and Dalphe. The ironic thing is those players have scored our goals lately.
  9. Zack Kassian first 143 games in NHL : 22 goals 16 assists Milan Lucic: first 200 games in NHL 34 goals 54 assists
  10. Kassian, and Jesnen fill that role. A RW would most certainly be coming back in the Kesler trade with a center as well.
  11. A LW with speed, physicality, and scoring should be the priorities. Of the 5/6 players that fit that description my personal favourite is Dal Collie because he's 8 months youngers than Draisaitl, and Bennet is way too small. Perlini and Dal Collie should be our picks if we're top 8.
  12. Dal Collie and Bennett have the same birthday, on the same year, wtf
  13. Ritchie is a gamble, but if we're picking people after Leon, Dal Collie, and Perlini we may as well.
  14. It's funny I was really hoping for a top 5 overall pick. If we can finish at 10th and get Ritchie I think it'll all be ok.
  15. I'd only pick Ritchie if were past 10th Penner shows up for the playoffs, and attitude can be improved but without seeing him play I can imagine exactly what you're talking about. Ritchie is a roll of the dice, and if him and Kassian turn into Mr Hyde 1 and Mr. Hyde 2 I think we have to do it. The team is being built for big and fast, that's Ritchie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RztPZLG34D0#t=32
  16. I think Ritchie should be our pick if we head outside the top 8 picks Good god do not pick Ehlers, pick the kids that's gonna be 240 at the age of 22. His arm will weigh 1.6 of Ehlers entire weight.
  17. Dal Collie is 8 months younger than the other 2, but is 180lbs too small
  18. So much better for the team to get 3-6th overall rather than 14th lol
  19. Don't like Virtanen over Ritchie but could see why I'd be called a fool. Think we'll get a big RW in the Kesler deal to replace Burrows falling off. 2 big players in a Kesler trade and drafting Ritchie and our top 9 could have 5/6 over 220lb players in a few years. That's how to crush La/Anaheim
  20. Who besides Schroeder gets bumped when Kassian and Richardson get back, Archibald?
  21. We'll be picking top 5. Luongo will put Florida on a small tear Calgary is 4 regulation losses ahead of us. NYI are winning Edm, Buf are are only competition
