Do you think NJ takes Hughes because of his brother playing there ?  Or will they take whoever they would have taken not considering that? 

I read a mock draft where the caption was something like “I’ve heard that NJ is definitely taking him and I’ve heard NJ is definitely not taking him.” So I think that’s the wild card.  
 

From what I can piece together, there should be better all around D men (Edvinsson?)  on the board at 4 so Hughes could be a bit of a reach there.  From the sounds of it we’ll get *someone* good at 9 so I’m not holding my breath on Luke… just thought it was interesting to read some people were starting to have him falling to 9 which wasn’t the case awhile ago.

Yeah i agree who the hell could it be, no idea 

Seems more like Kuzma was yapping than anything grounded in seriousness

 

Maybe Colton Parayko if St.Louis feels he won't re-sign, Seth Jones if Benning feels Brad Shaw & Travis Green (also played on development teams with Miller & Motte) have a strong enough connection with him to re-sign him, Dumba...somehow, I feel Erik Cernak is still the ideal fit but doubt he'll be moved.

 

Can't think of many more that would be worth a 9th overall.

 

A couple FAs out there that could be good too, namely Adam Larsson

I feel like the list of big, young, two-way or defensive RHD who are actually available is not very long

I'd settle for Sergachev, but Foote or Cernak would be okay second choices.

Cernak id do that for sure lol

 

you imagine if we did that. Haha

 

send Loui away with a 2nd next year and open up 6 mill. Trade away schmidt for a pick open up another 6.

 

sign both larsson and hyman and were instantly a top 5 team in the league

 

miller-petey-brock

hyman-bo-hog

pearson-dicky-podz

motte-beagle- lockwood/highmore

 

quinn-larsson

Rathbone-cernak

jouveli-Myers

Love to get Cernak but the Lightning will have no motivation to move him.


He’s a top 4 on a good contract. They’ll be looking to move guys like McDonaugh, Johnson, and Killorn.

 

Also there’s rumours they’re looking to trade Stamkos. Would be a an easy way to get some serious cap out.

 

How about the 9th overall for Stamkos?

 

Miller Pettersson Stamkos

Hoglander Horvat Boeser

I know it was a joke.

 

You could probably get him for less than that anyways.

 

To be fair he’s still over a point per game player. The issue with him is staying healthy.

He’s definitely lost a step tho. He was barely noticeable in the finals imo plus the injury bug like u mentioned definitely doesnt help lol 

 

anyways i can see why tampa wants outta that contract and try to move him. Rangers will probably take him

Here's my pipe dream scenario.  

Bettman: "Vancouver canucks trade their 9th overall pick to the Chicago Blackhawks for the Blackhawks 12th overall pick and their 62nd overall pick".  

 

Two picks later:  "Vancouver Canucks pick from khl SKA st.petersberg Fedor Svechkov!":towel:

 

We get a mid-late 2nd as well to recoup trading our 3rd. B)

 

One can dream... But again I'm good with whomever Benning and co pick.  More stoked with this draft just because there are so many differing views from.... Well everyone!  Going to make for some great entertainment!

Go canucks go!
