The only thing I can think of that's the same as this (2 players with the exact same name) is Sebastian Aho (the obvious one, and the much lesser known prospect of the same name on the Islanders-he is Swedish, while the Canes' Aho is Finnish)

Everybody says Seth Jones is completely useless, but I feel like 95% of those people just dick ride JFresh and say that his analytical profile sucks so he does. I know that personally I don't watch Columbus play more than twice a year so my opinion is beyond invalid but seriously, how many of you guys actually watch Columbus play. Honestly. Like I want to know if anybody actually knows how good he is. Like who the f*ck cares about Columbus?

It was Fitzgerald who demanded Foote be part of the trade if we were going to get Coleman.

Family > 2 Cups

New Jersey Devils
Blake Coleman (UFA Rights)
Tampa Bay Lightning
Nolan Foote

Deal? @Devil1122

Crazy. I'm off this thread for 27 hours, come back, and there are 72 new pages in that time span alone.


A draft happened, all exciting hockey times will get many pages added to these types of threads

Quoting: Devil1122
Biggest Steals in the Draft
William Eklund
Jesper Wallstedt
Fabian Lysell
Nikita Chibrikov
Aatu Raty
Sasha Pastujov
Dylan Duke
Logan Stankoven

Biggest reaches
Ty Boucher
Logan Mallioux
Nolan Allan
Ilya Fedotov
Ben Roger
Janis Moser


I agree with this list, I’d add Zach Ostapchuk as a reach though, and Simon Robertsson as a steal

To prove my point my post per days went from around 13 to 13.92 in the span of Seattle expansion draft + NHL draft

So basically almost every single terrible pick/ heavy reach was Ottawa.. good to know Dorion and McGuire are doing good business for the Sens.

Just watched Waddell's post draft interview. Here are a few quotes I took from it.

"The more picks you have, the better your odds are"

"We thought it was right to move on from Bean since we had some younger guys moving up and he's been in the organization for 5 years now"

"We're open to anything at the goaltending position right now. We're looking for a starter and a good goalie would love to play behind our defense" This one is funny because he just traded away Bean, Hamilton may not come back, and I doubt Hakanpaa will either.

"We are approaching free agency very open minded. We have some ideas in mind."

"I'm very confident that by this time next week we'll have two very quality starting goaltender" I hope he doesn't mean just Bernier and Mrazek though it would be a shame if all we got for Ned is Hreschuk.

On Dougie contract - "Our hope is that we can resolve this in the next few days. We will talk to Dougie's agent tomorrow (now today). Our number one objective is to get him signed"

"We're fortunate to have an owner that is willing to spend the cap" tears of joy tears of joy tears of joy

"We're gonna look at every free agent we can afford to sign and whoever is a good fit for us"

"I don't think a Svechnikov deal will happen by Wednesday"

Yeah, Boucher was a player I really liked.... as a late 2nd/3rd, Ostapchuk I think I had as like a 6th/7th and I have never heard of Roger, i really feel bad for Sens fans but at least they already have a good pool
