Thread: Good group but not special

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jonh514</b></div><div>Why do you think I "hate" Newhook? I actually like him quite a lot, but I am unsure at this point if he's a top 6 or top 9 player. Being the 7th best forward on the team and running his own line is actually a more valuable thing than being the lowest scoring top 6 forward.

I am hoping that Florian becomes a top 9 player do we can get some size on each line.

You really did not answer my question, do you think this group with a little outside help can win a cup once they mature? Because we will have a LOT of money invested in this group and it's only gonna get worse in 2027-28.

I think we need to find a trade that brings in at least one Elite forward.</div></div>

Okay I don’t think you hate Newhook, but he only proved us he has a really good shot and speed. He was carrying his line big time, imagine playing with actual good players. He is not a top 6 F yet, but he is definitely higher than Mesar and Roy for exemple.

The chance Florian Xhekaj becomes a NHLer are slim, I think your expectations on him are too high. If he can become a 13th F, or 4th line grinder, than good.

I don’t think the group above can win a Stanley Cup, I think MTL future group will have the same parcours the Carolina Hurricanes are having. But a big UFA or big trade for an Elite F could change that. Just my opinion tho

Yakemchuk won’t be available at 14th, Elick & Emery aren’t going that high, maybe one will go in the late 1st. But I agree I would take Adam Jiricek over Justin Barron with the 14th OA. But you still get the 27th, but SJ also have 33 & 42 if I’m not mistaking

What lmao gotta play 3rd pairing to be called a 3rd pairing dman. Barron only played top 4 and was sent down because he was waivers exempt. MTL have a lot of good young dman. The reason MTL are at the bottom of the league is because they get no scoring from the 2nd/3rd/4th line (Newhook/Dach injuries are a big reason)

Btw MTL are definitely not doing that Canes trade and WTF trading Justin Barron for a 3rd round pick !

In today’s league, if you are overpaid, you ain’t receiving assets. You pay to get rid of bigger contracts or you do a hockey trade. That’s not it

No one is taking Pageau without a 2nd round pick (look at the Bailey trade with CHI)

Thread: Is Kapanen better than Beck

Owen Beck has probably the better 2-way game and more offense than Oliver, but both are great on faceoffs. I think Kapanen is more suited for a 4th line role, strong on pucks battles. It will be a nice internal battle for the 3C spot for them in a couple years.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hckeydude123</b></div><div>Kings decline that. No need for Dvorak who appears to be getting worse and worse every year (who btw also has almost triple the cost per point of PLD) and Harris who doesn't make the Kings line up.

Don’t be ridiculous, Jordan Harris on one leg is better than Englund. He was injured so he didn’t played all the games but he got healthy scratch like 5 times top. There’s a rotation because we have too many defenseman. MTL are a bottom team because we didn’t have a 2nd, 3rd & 4th line

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Joblow</b></div><div>Buium is above Dickinson and Silayev by a significant marge. Seattle already is loaded with offensive talent in their pipeline. Trading up for Buium make total sense if they believe he is their guy.
And Sharangovich is the exact prototype of player Hugues and Gorton are looking for.</div></div>

Buium is my favorite defenseman, but Anton Silayev is not going later than 6th OA (Bill Armstrong will draft him if CBJ don’t). Levshunov is going 3rd to ANA and OTT are taking either a F or RHD. There’s a lot of chance Buium is there at 8th OA

Thread: Ohl big draft

SEA will select one of Silayev/Dickinson/Buium at 8, they don’t have to move up.
MTL aren’t trading for Sharangovich and definitely not paying that money AND those assets

For the Preds... just give up on any hope of ever getting Askarov. He's not available for anything y'all are able to offer. The last time he was rumored to even be in discussions, the target was one of the potential franchise players at the top of last year's draft, and y'all don't have a prospect of that level to offer.</div></div>

It was 5th OA (David Reinbacher) vs Askarov + 15th OA + I think EDM 1st and MTL declined …
