is 8 goals a game too conservative of a number?

Compher will definitely solidify depth in the top six and McCabe will be a top 4 dman. Those other guys are wild cards for the top six.
I think Grigs will figure it out.
And it's within 5 years which means it could be 5 or maybe even 4 years. But to be in the top 8 takes a great deal of talent, depth and the right goaltending.
ROR shoots left. Larsson will be a great 3rd liner.
You definitely have the pieces to land the 1st line RW or you may be able to draft your own in this draft or the next.

Who would you trade for, as in who's your wishlist 1st line RW, and what pieces would you have to send off?

This. I think they will still be a top ten, maybe top five pick next year where a top RW can be drafted. Too many things have to go right in order to trade for one.

If we finish with the 5th worse record next year. Will have good shot at a top 3 pick with the new lotto system

I'll be back on the bridge if they aren't at least close to a bubble team next year.

That they would give up? That's probably about right.

Meh. Young D, younger forwards, all with skill, and no goaltending? It'll be better then the last two years, but lets not get ahead of ourselves.

If the Babcock rumors are true, would he keep Irbe?

Sounds like he wants to coach McDavid. We would have to win the lottery to land him is my guess.

I laugh at all the so called tank talk. Last I checked there was always a last place team. ALWAYS ! What the F is the big deal? Just cause this year there is a big prize? Timing is everything. Glad we have a chance for being so bad.
