Capitals trade is terrible. Could get Hall for probably a 2025 2nd

Pens decline. Ullmark is worth a 2nd at most

Bert getting closer to 7x7 on the open market

Flyers can’t exactly use more defenseman

Pens will trade for hometown guy John Gibson. Dubas is intelligent, but he sucks at goalie evaluation

I also believe Frederic outperforms a majority of the late first round in this draft, but there will be players who will be considerably better. He’s really developed into a nice all talent

Bet your glad that Hextall and his picks are out

I mean maybe. Gibson is a gamble but could pay off. He is a quality goalie on a terrible team. You could argue he is overused and left out to dry too often, making his play worse.

I am glad Hextall is gone. He was quite bad.

Yeah that Caps trade is abysmal. There is no chance the Caps even think about moving the 8th Overall Pick for Taylor Hall at his age. That’s a fantasy.

Skip the no1-picks in the Hall-trade and it might work - the other two are out for the B´s! They can´t trade the highest pick they own to get rid of 0.333M cap. Frederick is a major NO... a really valuable piece and has all the tools teams are looking for (size, speed, grit and some scoring touch). Why on earth trade him?????

We´ve had this discussion before on Ullmark... but Ullmark and Frederic for a first and a third is a steal for the Pens, they´d be mad not to take it! Frederic is what all teams look for in their mid-six players!

If we've discussed it before, I won't rehash it. I'll just say Ullmark is a 2nd, and Frederic is also likely worth a 2nd. Together, they would probably be worth a low 1st IMO
