You’d rather have him than a Dahlin?

Plus,
I thought u were in love with Tkachuk?

I don’t see us getting the first overall pick so I have Zadina (2nd) TK (3rd)

So I can’t really be disappointed if I get my hopes up Lol

I have to admit, since BOGO came back the full D looks better for sure. Not world beaters but miles better then what we had all year so far. This team when completely healthy should be fighting for the last playoff spot.

Agree on the first part. I've been saying since the beginning of the season that the bottom six and lack of healthy D is the reason this isn't a .500 team.

or you could continue drafting and properly developing d-men beginning with guhle and his graduation next year....

don't get me wrong, karlsson or oel on the sabres would be awesome, but that's a pretty hefty price tag when they already have one, $10m player

it's nice to have talent to spread there as well...still would like to see what e-rod could do with Eichel
- Michael Pachla


For sure
But until Botts is willing to bring up our young talent from Roch,
we’ve just gotta make do the best we can

Next year, I’d like to see a line something like:
Nylander-Mittelstadt-Pominville

They are not a playoff team yet however they should be a 80-90 point team... Knocking on that last playoff spots door... They absolutely have enough talent on the top six. problem is they have ZERO talent in the pipe lines that can carry the load if we have multiple injuries.

Can’t argue how talented he is though

I didn't say good, I said .500

This team is 2 top six forwards, a top pair D man, a second pair d man and 2 4th liners from being good
