Trading Savoie is a major no — especially in that deal

That’s a no from Columbus, no interest in moving Jenner or Cuelamens at this time, please check back in 2-3 seasons.

I mean yah, ideally. But I dont think ostlund in the above package would do it. What would you do with our pick if we win the lottery? Just pick BPA and stay the course?

Okay noted. I just hope Buff can get Reinbacher then since he'd be the perfect fit w/ Power

Cool Lemons is worth maybe a 3rd, was a major reach

Yes, the exact reason Jarmo probably won’t be trading Cuelamens.

Lmao Cool Lemons.

Any insight to what RHD Buff should target come draft day if any? I dont see us making any big moves via FA (i.e. Gudas) and I cant think of anyone not a prospect with the right term/cap we can trade for.

I dont see the top 2 falling to us based on current projections.... And I think Bonk is projected before Phillies 2nd RDP

Reinbacher or Sandin Pellikka might still be around at #13,

For trades, there are potential short-term (Sean Walker), long-term (Sean Durzi), and future (Jordan Spence) possibilities from Los Angeles.

Columbus will almost certainly have an RD on the block, especially if they win a top 3 pick. There's currently five who need roster spots next season, plus Ceulemans who'll probably spend all of next year in Cleveland. Jiricek and Gudbranson are either untouchable or immovable, but I'd think any of Peeke, Boqvist, and Blankenburg could be had with the right deal. Columbus dearly needs a veteran 2LD and top-6 potential centers.

As for the 23 draft, David Reinbacher and Axel Sandin-Pelikka are both RHD expected to go in the top half of the first round. The former's probably top ten but latter will almost certainly still be available at 13.

There’s a few others out there. Aram Minnetian, Maxim Strbak, Tom Willander, Hunter Brzustewicz, Lukas Dragicevic, Beau Akey, Andrew Gibson.:: I can keep going but there are a lot of second round options imo.

I could see Sandin Pelika going outside the first round due to his height.

The draft is so shallow on D that I could see a team in the middle or end of the round, especially one who already had another first rounder, reaching for him.

I mean I think he should be a first rounder, but I’m not sure he will be. I think a guy like Caden Price or Lukas Dragicevic may shoot up big boards as we get closer to Draft day.

I'll defer to you on that. I haven't been focusing much on players ranked lower yet. I will once the lottery happens and draft orders are fully set.
