Are you expecting to fall back in the draft? There's no chance you are taking Silayev at 4. Dickinson sure but probably one of the forwards

Silayev was 2 on bobs mid term guys ranking seems to be all over the place

You just buy Elvis out if you're going to retain $2.7M on him. Adding Chinakhov to Elvis 50% retained and only getting a 2nd back is a fireable offense.

If there is one thing I don't want to see from the new GM, it's signing Lindholm to a seven year deal. He is going to be overpaid wherever he signs.

He's dropped to like 9 since then. Top 3 are Celebrini, Demidov, and Levshunov.
