  1. After seeing what Dumoulin got, I’d rather have him than either Cole or Soucy.
  2. Always wanted Cole back in 2018, too bad he’s a lot older now.
  3. I would have picked Matthew Wood. Probably a top 5 pick, if his skating was top tier.
  4. I mean, he’s “good”, but he’s not 40m/yr good. Just to put it into perspective, he’s making more money than Anthony Davis, Devin Booker, Trea Young, Jayson Tatum, Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving, and a lot more better players. Of course some of these guys, are only coming off their entry level contracts.
  5. Getzlaf’s career was derailed by injuries and male balding.
  6. He’s going to play for one of the Florida teams for cheap, win a Cup, and retire into the sunset.
  7. So, baseball fans are pissy that Canada stuffed the ballot for the Jays, during phase one, but are okay with having 4 Rangers starters in the all-star game? I think Bichette deservingly should have been a starter over Seager. While Ramirez should have gotten the nod at 3rd over Jung.
  8. He wasn’t even noticeable in the World Junior tournament and even if you thought he played great that tournament. That doesn’t necessarily mean it will translate to the NHL. In the history of the draft, players picked in the 3rd round have a 20% chance of playing more than 100 games in the NHL. I’m just saying, I wouldn’t hold your breath of him making any sort of impact for us.
  9. Soucy is pretty much a slightly better Poolman. Overpaying for him would be such a Benning move.
  10. Jays hitters making Triple A pitchers looking like Cy Young winners.
  11. Pettersson is hardly a legitimate nhl prospect. I’d say he has less than a 25% chance of ever becoming a top 4 defensemen for us.
  12. Last time we picked a local kid, it didn’t go so well.
  13. I said, Montreal would probably draft a defensemen, specifically Reinbacher. You didn’t believe that a defensemen would be drafted in the top 5, since there are other better options.
  14. @HighOnHockey I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so..
  15. Draftees wear dress shoes, while Carlson wears casual shoes.
  16. TSN coverages was so much better…..
  17. DeBrincat for 11th pick, R.I.P.
  18. While trading Hughes may not be a popular decision. I’d probably do this if all it took to was Hughes and the 11th pick for Bedard. Jones isn’t worth his salary/caphit, but I could see him bounce back with another team and system. At least CDC can’t complain about having little RHD depth with Jones and Hronek, now.
  19. Surprised they got rid of an OG Knight. I thought Martinez would be the odd man out and have Hague play a more predominant role, next season.
  20. They have a very bright future with Cruz, Steer, and McLain. The Orioles of the NL. Too bad they don’t have any good pitching prospects outside of Abbott.
  21. OP ask for reasonable possibilities. Then proceed to name three players that are highly unlikely to be dealt.
  22. I think you’re really underestimating how well the 06’ Canucks team was defensively. Games were legitimately boring to watch, because AV would prioritize defence over offence, with how the roster was built. Trust me, I was on this forum longer than most people and remember posters constantly criticizing his coaching style. Was the Devils better than us defensively? Possibly. But going by what I remember and data gathered. They certainly weren’t “miles better”.
  23. Well, at least the rest of the AL East teams loss today.
  24. Just because a team overpays to get a player doesn’t mean that’s his true value. Montreal got a first for Chariot a few years ago. Does that mean Myers is worth a 1st?
