Bc even in years previous, we were still bad even with a healthy Eichel
A healthy Eichel wouldn’t make let year’s team “good”
And neither will a rookie Byfield

Also, we’re just going around in circles here making no progress
Agree to disagree

- jdfitz77


Agreed. The question was whether or not the team would improve, not be good. Moving on.

I know this already, but completely mind bending! lol

And 5 of these being for the 1st overall pick. So weird. For 3 different teams.

Man, what a player. Owen Power, 18, logged serious minutes and I didn't see one single mistake worth mentioning. I am told that he will send a letter to 31 teams, saying that he only wants to be drafted by one team.

Late to the party on this one. I don't think he means he wants to demand who he gets drafted by, just stating that he wants to go first overall because he believes in his talent. I see nothing wrong with this.

It would definitely help if him and Rousseau have a impact this year.

Yeah, watch him play in Boston next year after signing, they just barely miss the playoffs and win the lottery. Because why not.

Said he's open to trading the pick and expects calls. Hasn't gotten any calls on it yet

I was told Hall is terrible though
Hmmmm....

- jdfitz77


Nice to see we agreed on Ullmark somewhat.
On Hall you have to face facts. Hall wasn’t good at all in Buffalo and I will always maintain he couldn’t handle being counted on. In Boston his surroundings are quite different and he plays with no pressure.
On Hutton one important stat of his is goals for while he was in net. Lowest in the league at 1.69. If your team is expecting to win 1 nothing every game your done before you start. He’s gone anyway and maybe he was average at best but the team in front of him was sh!t.
Unless this team gets tougher and play with some intensity like they did some games under Donny I don’t see Ullmark or any target making a difference.

Not much, but he keeps driving that point across that he wants players that want to be here.

Still whispers going on about Columbus and Buffalo and Rhino and 1 of there goalie's. If that was to happen would think Adams would be asking for 1 of those 3 first rnd picks Columbus has too.

If we trade our current 1C for a goaltender, I may actually explode or self ignite or something.

Bad things. Bad juju. Let it be false please.
