Yes. Petry is going home to wait for a trade to any team but Detroit. He's a RD and we need LD.

I think columbus would definitely trade 6 and 10 for 1OA. Historically speaking you’re way better off with that top pick.

You will have to cough up more than a 3rd to move up to 4.

Not sure about the value here, evaluating the swap of picks at the draft is not my forte. Dubas has been known to trade down for extra picks in the past, though.

I'm not sure. I'm not convinced about Wright. Maybe Kemell could be even or better? There's a lot of question about the top 10 this year. Lot of draft list are different.

MONTRRAL IS NOT TRADING 1ST OVA!! It is illogical to do so when our biggest need is a top 6 center! Can we please be done with these ridiculous, illogical proposals! Also Price is not going on LTIR, he said in his presser he is not giving up, he is focusing on being ready for next year. IMO that means he will at the very least start 20+ games next year and see how his knee holds up. If he can not sustain his level of play then he will look at his options.

For the 400th time, we do not want Petry.

Even if the flyers first choice is not available ? It's 6 to 4.... Not 10 to 4th

You are gonna have to give up more than a 3rd to move from 6th to 4th.

He said he is not giving up, but also told that if he can't play like he does in the past he will not play. That mean if he is to play 30 games and not be at 100%, he will not be playing.
If the 1st OA was Bedard there was no question about trading it. But Lot of question here about Wright. Can Cooley land 1st ? We just don't know

To allow you to take the player you want...you pay a price for that.

Hahaha, I know that detroit fans don't want him. I just try to do a reasonnable trade.
Imagine if he really land in Detroit this offseason

And that price is a 3rd (1st pick in the 3rd round) or lat 2nd if you prefer.

Detroit has zero interest in Petry.

Not enough imo. I'd want your 2nd.

That is what I am saying, Price will start 20 games or so near the beginning of the season to see how his knee is holding up. If it is fine he will continue, if not he will then look at his options. He is not going to start the year on LTIR is my point.

I can not imagine a scenario where Montreal trades 1st OVA for anything less than in a package for PLD or a similar established young center. Can you imagine the fan reaction in Montreal if Betteman announced that Montreal traded the 1st OVA pick for 3rd and 12th and we missed out on a can't miss center prospect?! All hell would break loose and fans would riot!

Nah, Columbus needs a RHD more than they need a center with the emergence of Sillinger and imo I’m not high on Wright. So if we trade up it’s to 2 or 3 to get Nemec or we see if Juricik falls to 6 and take a center at 12 if we don’t win the lottery.

Eh, every year that doesn’t feature a Bedard/Crosby/Matthews/McDavid type is always called a weak draft. Lafreniere was supposed to be a world breaker, and can’t really say he has convinced anyone yet. These guys take time, and it can be a wild card based on what situation they are drafted into.

Point being, not sure I could see CBJ doing that. I think some great guys will be available in the Top 12, and not sure it’s worth leveraging for Wright.

Then again, I keep getting the feeling that if the CHI pick stays with CBJ, Jarmo makes a move with one of the two 1sts.

Petry at 50% retained plus Edmonton 2nd for a depth player seems more likely

Any GM that’s drafting for need in the top ten should be fired before making the pick.

No duh.
Nemec is projected 3rd so if Columbus is trading up they trade to 3rd to take the guy projected at 3.
Juricik is projected 5-10 so at 6 he’s right in the wheel house. So yes you should select best available at some points, if there is a guy in a position in a position of need projected around where you’re selecting that could be considered the best available to that team.

LOL KEMELL BETTER THAT WRIGHT ? u do realize that overhyped prospect from U18 gave us KK ?

Trying to reconcile the draft selections…?

#4 Simon Nemec
#10 Brad Lambert
#26 Joakim Kemell
#27 Tristan Luneau
#54 Jack Hughes

I have hard time seeing all these names (except Luneau) falling this late.

Let’s just compare picks 1, 6, and 10 for a minute here, because i think this is a slam dunk for columbus. Get a shot at a generational player-and minimize some risk.

Let’s start with 2018 and work back:
2018: 1. Dahlin - took a minute, but he’s quite good. 6. Zadina - bust. 10. Bouchard - could be good.
2017: 1. Hischier - solid. 6. Glass - bust. 10. Tippett - starting to inch towards the bust category.
2016: 1. Matthews - could argue he’s the best player on the planet. 6. Tkachuk - awesome. 10. Jost - meh.
2015. 1. McDavid - need I say more. 6. Zach - meh. 10. Rantanen - awesome player.
2014: 1. Ekblad - took a while, but he’s elite. 6. Virtanen - bust. 10. Ritchie - bust.
2013: 1. Mackinnon - elite. 6. Monahan - started out good, but he’s a mess now. 10. Nichushkin - meh.
2012: 1. Yakupov - bust. 6. Dumba - very good. 10. Koekkoek - meh.
2011: 1. RNH - solid. 6. Zibanejad - took a while, but great player. 10. Brodin - awesome.
2010: 1. Hall - great career. 6. Connolly - bust for a top ten pick. 10. McIlrath - bust.
2009: 1. Tavares - fantastic career. 6. OEL - solid player, way overpaid, but a good pick. 10. Paajarvi - very mediocre.

So of the last ten drafts, looks like theres two instances where it would be better to have 6 and 10.

Slam dunk for columbus.

Lots of draft lists are different, but they all have one thing in common: WRIGHT IS ALWAYS RANKED #1
