Not necessarily, if the spots around them are filled & there's no route to the NHL. But hopefully Petey/Hughes/Demko can be a selling point aswell.

Warhippy Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Dale Tallon is 100% the reason the Hawks and Panthers achieved what they have. It was his trades that made the Hawks competitive past their 1st cup, it was his moves with the Panthers that made them competitive and got them over the hump as much as it was Quennevilles coaching. This is honestly the most exciting hire for me, especially as a scout. he found some of the most incredible late round gems and pro hockey contracts I could see him taking over if Allvin fails should he be here long enough. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think part of the failings of the last management group goes back to the failure to replace Linden when he left. We wound up spreading the workload on too few of people which falls on ownership. Whether Benning stayed or left, should have fallen on the shoulders of an experienced President, like Jim Rutherford! There's also the POV that if Allvin doesn't work out, there are a number of guys who could step in who are already up to speed, regards, G. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 2 hours ago, flat land fish said: I think that is a little overblown. Depth guys will be integrated as roster players as 22-24 year olds and you are realistically only adding 1 maybe 2 players of that Ilk to the active roster each season. At the level we are getting to it takes a pretty special prospect to supplant a top 6 forward or top 4 dman the one glaring need being RD which I expect will be addressed this off season. The depth players we need are the role players now. Alvin and Rutherford did a pretty good job finding those guys for Pitt and hopefully can do the same here. We also have a pretty decent volume of players drafted over the last 3 years and they can’t be written off yet. really? most guys in the second round and later don't usually contribute meaningfully until they're 22-23.

Guilt by association is reaching. Wasn't Tallon already gone to Florida by the time things went awry in Chicago? regards, G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe what I was getting at was lost. I think a few of those guys we would see as future depth were drafted in the last 3 years. Some of the backfill will be college free agents and European free agents. The drafted component for the depth players is probably only 1/3 lots of sources for those types of players.

I'm not trying to spin any agenda whatsoever.

Dazzle Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 3 hours ago, JM_ said: this is going to take 4-5 years. It's funny you say that. Our prospect pool/roster team (in terms of potential) is significantly better than what Gillis left the team. If our current team requires 4-5 years to rebuild, how long would it have taken with a complete barebones prospect pool that ONLY successfully drafted Horvat, Hutton, Connaughton, and Hodgson? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
