First Overall pick after 1st overall pick and them coming into their primes. They already had core players, they just needed game changers and they got them.

They rebuilt, tanked the right way, got 2 first overall, a second overall, and a fourth overall in the last 5 years, and 2 of those players haven’t even made the team yet. They are going to get even better

I completely forgot about RJ Umberger, I had to erase his name from my brain absolutely did not like him.
Nick Seeler can also be added to this list

Your not considering the fact he played against men.

In all seriousness I like Kakko ngl more than Laff which might be a bit of a Spicy Take


hahaha. It's not as spicy as it used to be. Laf is taking the slow road of development, for sure.

i liked douglas but it was going to be a while before he got an NHL look. it's nothing like marchment, struggles to skate and pretty sluggish to react to anything.

won't stop boomers from having a meltdown though.

Possession time x1000. And an unlucky bounce spoils it

NO KIDDING

Canada’s been playing very good, good look for a team that isn’t expected to do much

A 5th rounder in 2025 likely never sees the NHL. Reaves is one of the best leaders in the game. They sent him out west for a reason, they don’t want to see him in the postseason.
