(Laine needs a change of scenery. He hasn’t been bad in Columbus by any stretch, just incredibly unlucky. A potential trade very much depends on the new GM’s assessment).

For the team that, quite literally, is the unluckiest lottery team in NHL history, it would be really nice for this to line up for us.

Particularly considering the many reasons this team deserves some good karma right now.






But hes gonna be a Blackhawk. Let’s face it.

And cost them the opportunity for McKenna in two years? No way. He's a Ute.

no no McKenna is going to be a penguin. They have to replace Crosby with someone who will fill seats. Otherwise they will be moving another team.

I am pulling for CBJ to land Celebrini, but at the same time I think if they do he will make them a playoff team, but they still won't have a real franchise player to make them an actual cup contender.

Depending on how Fantilli develops, he may be their franchise player. I feel like if Fantilli is in this draft he goes 1st overall even over Celebrini. But what Columbus needs to become a real contender is management that isn’t afraid to make difficult decisions, and a team where each player compliments each other, as opposed to what they have now which on most nights is a team showing up for 80% of the game and disappearing at the most vital moments.
