5 Brand New Questions
1. Besides Tampa, I think Montreal and Nashville are teams on the outside looking in right now that I think have the best chance to make the playoffs.
2. I could see Hall going to the NY islanders.
3. Draisaitl is a top 5 NHLer right now; but not top 2.
4. Babcock will get another head coaching job in the NHL. Peters may get a job in the NHL after a while, but not a head coaching gig.
5. The Wings will have a better record than the 2016-17 Avalanche.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>There’s no universe where aho doesn’t go up 10 spots. This allows that.</div></div>
Sure there is: this one I've laid out. Where Philly has to choose between...
Senyshyn
Svechnikov
Eriksson Ek
Samsonov
Juulsen
Larsson
Carlsson
Merkley
Roy
Stephens
Dermott
The only way Aho can jump 10 spots is for them to pick Senyshyn over 4 definitively better options, 5 that are questionable, and only 1 that would be an objectionably worse choice. There's no universe in which they'd do that.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>I understand the plus or minus ten puts some constraints on this, but you’re still willingly taking Travis Dermott over Carlo and aho.</div></div>
Since it's not possible to take Aho or Carlo at 24, you'd have to propose a better choice to replace Dermott there.
Eriksson Ek or Samsonov would be options, but I don't see a big difference between the defenseman and the forward, and while I think Samsonov will be the best of the 3 over time I think he needs more NHL games to take that spot.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>hanson493</b></div><div>how can you say he still has elite potential though. He has 37 points in 139 games. Sure his usage varied and his playing partners varied but you still gotta produce a little bit better as the 6th overall pick. I dont see his elite potential.</div></div>
It could be an issue of organizational management, coaching, attitude, slow acclimation to North America...any number of things.
He's a 4th overall pick (nearly universally projected as the 3rd best prospect in the draft that year) only 3 years ago and he's still only 21 years old.
There's likely a plethora of coaches, GMs, owners (with the egos you need to have at this level) that believe they could "fix" him.

I haven't really paid a lot of attention to the Armchair GMs to see what people were offering, but it was originally described above as "serviceable assets and decent picks" which sounds appropriate for a very young under-performing player with elite potential.
Some similar recent examples of struggling young players with high ceilings and what they fetched:
Dylan Strome (packaged with Perlini) for Nick Schmaltz
Domi for Galchenyuk
Alex Nylander for Jokiharju
Griffin Reinhart for 1st and 2nd
Grigorenko (packaged with others) for Ryan O'Reilly (packaged with Jamie McGinn)
Ryan Strome for Eberle
Baertschi for 2nd

He has elite potential, his market value is depreciated, and he's a completely lost asset to the organization that currently owns his rights.
Seems like a pretty obvious trade target, to be honest.

Why do you assume no McAvoy or Carlo then? Either way they drafted a defenseman in the 1st round, and Chabot wasn't a sure thing when 2016 draft rolled around.
Replacing Coyle with Donato isn't really a massive adjustment.

Krug is not getting moved in season. So if the trade took place in the offseason they would trading his negotiating rights, would not get that kind of return. Would not be Habs either.
Most B’s fans think Grizz will get between 5 and 6m. I think it’s more like 4.
Keyser not ready for NHL. They’d have to get a backup and they are not cheaping out. They learned their lesson with Gustafsson.</div></div>
Details. I'll save the arguments over them.
I think I've shown it'd be workable, as long as you can convince Backes to waive his NTC.
And if he won't, simply trade Chabot's or Barzal's rights for a huge return.
Whatever.

He was on the shortlist. He was productive, for sure (in large part because of the players who got the puck to then net like Briere). But I don't think he was anywhere near as talented as Briere.

Then why isn't CJ playing with the Sabres right now? It's not as if they're scoring at will in 5-on-5.
Puljujarvi's ceiling potential is elite forward in the NHL. CJ Smith's ceiling potential is Bottom 6 forward in the NHL, and he's got a ways to get there.

1. Trotz has a lot to do with Islanders' success. But I think the real credit goes to Mitch Korn.
2. Washington Capitals favorites to win the cup.
3. Hart = Draisaitl; Vezina = Greiss; Norris = Carlson; Adams = Tippett; Calder = Makar
4. Yes; Byfuglien returns this season.
5. The Leafs are not in danger of missing the playoffs.
Bonus: Sportsnet did the right thing in firing Don Cherry.

Scheifele
There is no deal between Winnipeg and Buffalo for Scheifele that doesn't include Eichel or Dahlin. No other combination of pieces, regardless of how many you put together, would get the Sabres anywhere near him.
AHLer C.J. Smith plus a swap of late round picks doesn't get you Puljujarvi either.
