The only asset was a bunch of older players and Horvat. MG had mortgaged the future and we were a depleted run down asset. Now had we not had glaring holes in or NHL roster, that were filled in by Horvat, Demko, Hughes, Pettersson, Hoglander and Podz amongst others, we would be in real trouble. JB missed most of his defensive picks prior to Hughes, by either lack of a clear path for development or poor early pro scouting which allowed good players to be dealt away and bad players to be kept. The steady and deeper round picks are coming up, this year thru the expansion draft we lost Kole Lind and thru assets management Gads. Rutherford wants Rathbone to play minutes, Woo has been injured and Klimovich must be very worried about what’s going on at home. If Hogs and Podz were with Abbey, it would be a bit more representive of the depth available to the farm system. but with futures like Utunnen, Karlsson and others in Europe, we have players who are close to coming into the system and like JB, Rutherford and Alvin are persuading NCAA players to sign. Added to that, both Abbey and Vancouver are in the mix and even though Abbey has a large AHL Pro contingent, we are a damn sight removed away from the Chicago Wolves disaster of player development. Phats. I don't know what to say, seldom do I see someone with that much insight into the obvious state of the franchise that so many miss for whatever reason, personally if I would have been JB and offered the Vancouver cunuck GM job, I would have said "F off!" NO! As you pointed out, it's been sell the farm for a no depth roster and folks wonder why we have no cup... However it seems to me that management wants to actually build a team with depth, personally I'll believe it when I see and not before. So pretty sceptical here but that's only the first step, if we don't get bigger physically as a team then (as usual) we won't get far. We all know hockey is a different game in the playoffs where teams will do pretty much anything to win and if it means musculing us out of the rink, again (as usual) same result. Anyway good observation s sir! Glad there's people paying attention to the big picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klima is gonna look amazing on Petey’s wing. Now wouldn't that be something... Klim - Petey - Podz If Klim and Podz continues their progress, then in about 3 years, they could cause major havoc as a line with Petey...

JustABandwagoner Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Why did we pick Klimovich over Raty again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkyard Dog Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 5 minutes ago, DontMessMe said: Why did we pick Klimovich over Raty again? Raty is a mid-late 2nd so multiple teams pass him up. Canes had three 2nds and pass on him each one, Sens/Yotes/Stars had two 2nds and passed on him each one. He looks like he'll be a steal. However it's pretty hard to tell how Klimovich will pan out considering this is the draft +1. Regardless of how Raty pans out if Klimovich does as pan out will come out as a winners(probably not as big of winners as Islanders) in the 2nd compared to the majority of teams who fail at finding someone. So all we can hope for is winning a secondary prize in the 2nd in a lottery sense. If Islanders win lotto max of the 2nd give me that maxmillon 1 million prize secondary winning instead of the "please try again" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off, just glad it appears he wasn’t injured on the play. Kneeing is such a dirty move, with a high risk of causing injury. Refs should have evened up the calls, but you take the two minutes, if necessary, in that situation. I don’t know too much about Brett Seney, but wondering if he’s a two sport athlete? Definitely looked like he could be a soccer player the way he went down. 1 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
