Thread: Few ideas for 2024
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Headhack</b></div><div>Fair enough, not the best trade partners cause we're at a similar spot in the rebuild and needing the same thing.

However I would imagine Harris + Beck + Winnipeg 1st would make it value wise (overpay imo not peanuts) but this might just make the team Mid. Dach (former 3OA) higher ceiling then Sillinger at the time got traded for 13 OA.</div></div>

We arent interested in quantity over quality. Harris, Beck and a late 1st does not meet any of our needs, so we would have no reason to make that trade. You would have to offer a high end piece that results in us getting a comparable value player, so either a top 6 caliber prospect or a top 15 pick. It going to be painful to trade for a talented young player, you would be losing a player or asset that you dont want to.

Thread: Mtl picks 5th
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>squashmaple</b></div><div>Chiming in as a CBJ fan. I think they go forward. The top-10 caliber defenseman in this draft are almost all offensive defensemen, which they've already got in spades, or play LHD specifically, which is pretty deep organizationally. Probably take Demidov without even blinking if they land second overall, but failing that, whichever of the centers the scouts like most: Lindstrom, Catton, Helenius. Easier to take the center now even if he ends up a wing later.

I know Habs fans are hoping CBJ wins a lottery spot since they're the other most likely to take a forward in the projected top six or seven teams, which leaves the most choice available for Montreal.</div></div>

Thanks for chiming in, always interested in hearing other fans perspectives. If the draft order stays the same I can realistically see a scenario where Demidov falls to you. Chicago could easily be looking for a future #1 dman, and Anaheim could do the same after trading Drysdale for Gauthier.

I am curious who you'd like to see Columbus take at 4th though, from an outsiders perspective it sure looks like they're deep at every position prospect wise.</div></div>
