He has come out of no where

Patrick
Horvat (Lefty said this is his ceiling)
Gaudette
Sutter/ Granlund


- CanuckDon


Unless we move up in the lotto ignoring Patrick i'd say BPA makes sense.
If its Liljgren so be it. Idk what winger after Tippett i like in as a pick.
We need more speed & scoring if a C is there pick him. Rasmussen idc for.

McGinn might be available. 14 points in 50 games with the Coyotes and was healthy-scratched last night in their win over the Kings.

This is true. If & when we get a better roster together Feb-March would've defined how we really sit. As it is we can still measure up any progress from players in these dog days looking forward.

Wait ...what ... you got info on them talking about draft picks?

Most relevant thing I heard was JB saying he doesn't see any difference between picks 1-20 other then development time to be NHL ready.

I don't think we will know much, if anything, until the draft placement is determined. When is that again

I watched foote a bit last year and again this year. The biggest difference is he seems faster and he's freaking MEAN out there! Slashing top players behind the play and some. He's not a guy you want to play against. If he's there and were out of the top 5-7 we need to grab him.

With interesting D being available where ever we pick is why we need to trade or lose 1-2 D. Just projecting a big logjam next year & want us to pick needs.

Agreed. But not a bad spot to have a log jam. If we can get something for a D then awesome. Or let OJ and Foote develop for 2-3 years each. Then we have freaking amazing potential on D for a decade. I'm still not sold on Hutton. And we don't know how stretcher will be yet either. Even tree / EG. But there's a LOT of potential.

The lottery makes it difficult to predict but I would guess between 6-10.
