I remember thinking when they Signed Molhotra for 2.75 I think it was a lot. He was worth it. I have no problems with Beagle, he’s a good player, sounds like a good influence. My problem is with you bozos who complain about one guy scoring only 5 goals, but a cup champ who only scores 5 goals is great. If goals are the only measuring stick then neither guy measures up.
I got into a very annoying argument with Prezzy about Sutter being a top what, 90 Centre in the league? Basically I said there were literally 100 players I would select over Sutsey who could play C. Do people still think that highly of him? - 1970vintage
Would you pick beagle over Sutter? |

My problem with you bozos is thinking 1 goal is the same as 7 . And skating away from fights because you are scared after a player on your team gets decked is the same as jumping in to help someone.
You probably don't remember this but Gaunces last game was a game when someone got clocked and he just stood there looking at the other guy . He was sent down the next day . |

I'm still on board with slow and steady. No free agents anchor contracts. Move out pieces like Edler at the deadline for either picks prospects or younger players with upside. Sutter is redundant at this point as others have mentioned and I'm pretty sure he will be dealt before next season to make a spot for Gaudette. As far as the draft is concerned.... they are 18 yr old kids... to make blanket statements about their being no impact players at this point is just rediculous. Saying that , this is how the league replenished itself with young unproven talent. We can all agree this team needs more talent , and currently is carrying several players who are nothing more then place sitters. I like Jb's work at the draft and I like the teams change in philosophy towards marinating players in developmental leagues so yes I'm still on board for slow steady draft and develop ! - Bullfrog77

No, it doesn't.
It proves a GM took a known known over a known unknown. Dorion took Tkachuk at number 4, without knowing where this years pick would be.
Right now, Ott sits at 28, so they could be picking anywhere from 1-7 as it stands. Could they have gotten Hughes at 1? Yes. But they also could have gotten someone worse than both Hughs and Tkachuk at 7, so IMO Dorion played the odds and took what he knew last year, instead (and hoping) that this years pick would be worse because the team would be better. - NewYorkNuck
OK so instead of arguing bout something that is unprovable until it happens lets wait until Hughes comes in next year and turns a bottom team into a contender and scores his 35 goals. |

21 other guys also looked the other way. I don’t care about Gaunce. If the head coach doesn’t think he’s good enough to play in the NHL he probably isn’t. This team is so soft it’s embarrassing, and the guys who are supposed to insert stiffness are the limpest of all. |

Lol, don't want the dutch, Karlsson and panarin are 27 year old all star caliber players who fit our need. RHD and left winger. - Pres.cup
Karlsson actually will be 29 in May meaning if/when he signs his 8 year contract he'll be 37 when it's time for retirement. So you'll probably get good value for the first 4 years and typical horrific quality for the final 4. |

Certainly no hope for that franchise until McTavish and Chia aren't apart of it anymore. |

Has it been confirmed that Petey’s playing today? If true, it’s very exciting.

Ridiculous not Rediculous
So it is ridiculous to say they won't make an impact player but not to say they will be an impact player. Oh Okay.

Now that the rebuild is over they can focus on adding some physicality to their already solid bottom 6. |

Amazing that one player can change our anticipation on watching a game. Hoping that hes back and goes bar down on Howard. |

More and more often there are Barzal or Pasternak’s late in the first. Or if you prefer, a Boeser. Sure, sometimes you get a Gaunce, but I think that’s about your scouting process and what you value (safe, reliable, 200’ player etc) instead of holy crap can this kid shoot the puck. Teach him to skate better and watch out! |
