This draft has quality players in it even though there aren't sexy picks at the top. What's different this year are that many teams in the top 15 are not in rebuild form and willing to trade their pick. In fact there are quite a few preferring an NHL player(s) off a roster then their first rounder. Bolts, Stars, Panthers, Isles, Jets etc. come to mind. The 15-31 spots are also more open then usual.

So will JB jump in to move someone by entry draft?

Easy vet moves are Tanev, Sbisa (if here) Guddy, Marky, Sven, Granlund and Hutton.

Also, can he push Edler, Sutter and even LE to move?

Anybody like to match above to those teams?

it was...

Oh... is Drouin waiver except? No... so... his 5 million would go onto our cap... right. We need around 4.5 per for bo and Eric. So that's 13 millionish that we'd need.

I like Drouin and would gladly send Sven and tanev for Drouin and their first.

But I'd rather make moves to get into the top 2... somehow.

If it's possible to gut our roster and grab Nolan and lilgran (sp) I'd be all over it.

That would set our next 1c and top pairing.

Everything else is filling.

How things, you watching the playoffs?

Craig Button on Brock Boeser: "If he’s not (NHL) ready, I don’t know who is. He had the wrist injury and he was still a really good player."

Well he must be ready then

Have a feeling we'll see Jake make the team this year

A scout on Boeser: "Comparison (to McCann/Virtanen) isn’t close - not by a mile. He is so much further ahead than where those two were at."

Benning on Boeser: "We’ve talked to him. He knows what it’s going to take and I’m confident he’s going to do the work off the ice." #Canucks

All depends on how he comes into camp, same as any other it seems to me. I think Subban is more likely as he's already shown a good work ethic, but if JV stays on target this summer there's no reason why he couldn't make the roster.

I'm watching if I'm not busy or napping. I've been feeding 200K chinook smolt in the SSES sea pen in Sooke Harbour.

Hopefully everyone that whines about rushing prospects pays attention to this quote. Boeser has nothing to gain from riding busses in Utica
