Thread: few changes for another season of development
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MTLaveragefan</b></div><div>Well clearly if the Jacket see Lindstrom as the absolute BPA at 4th and not comparable to the others... then sure... it's not happening.

But if they like him... but they also like Catton, Iginla or any other D... then getting an extra first, a nice RHD prospect (could also be a LHD like Harris or Struble) to help them make the choice could be a no-brainer.</div></div>

Jackets aren’t trading down for any of those prospects that won’t make their roster. Why would the jackets want middling defensive prospects when they already have guys like jiricek, mateychuk, and svozil who are all better and can’t get playing time as is?

Like I said if levshunov, lindstrom, and demidov are off the board already and the jackets don’t have a preference for the remaining prospects then they might consider trading down with the Habs for the jets first round pick

Thread: Time to Make It Happen
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>The ranges in this draft are very interesting. There are going to be some players that are going to fall and moving down to improve the D is not a terrible idea. This is an aggressive move to try and make this team competitive. SJ has no reason to move Ferraro so the Jackets have to give them a reason to. The Jackets are a team that doesn’t need to get involved in FA bidding wars. They are better to move assets to bring him in now. We have a lot of players we need to find space for and this would help while giving us a legit 1-2 punch down the middle. Fantilli is great but he is not ready to carry the team. We need Draisaitl to be a player who can instantly make Gaudreau a factor again.</div></div>

Why wouldn’t they just draft levshunov then instead of trading for Ferraro? He’s on of the best players in the NCAA already. He’s almost instantly better than Ferraro the second he is drafted. If you trade provorov you likely get a late first back. Package that and some other pieces for Ferraro. With a top 5 pick you should be getting a player of werenskis caliber back not ferraro
