Also already have DemGOAT

Yup.

😂👍

If Jesper Wallstedt is there at #9, do you take him? I don’t think a Swedish goaltender has ever won the cup as a starting goaltender.

No thx. Needs are a priority.

We could use Mikey D to trade for Cernak

Should be a pool for this .

Jake and Ferland and if Canucks can't trade Holtby him too later on
- VANTEL

Agreed

I don't believe injured players can get bought out though so I'd just LTIR Ferland until his contracts runs out since he's probably finished(which sucks because he would have been a hell of an addition to this team), but correct me if I'm wrong about injured players getting bought out.

Jake makes sense, off-ice aside, he was a disappointment this year.

Holtby I'd hold onto for now, could get drafted by Seattle or traded.

Cossa round 2 then? Assuming he’s still available
- Nucker101

No again. Needs only

I think Tampa may be more interested in picks and/or young/cheap F/D to replace all the depth their about to lose this summer

I also think MD's value could even rise if he gets the backup gig next year and more time to work with Clark. Might be able to use him at the TDL or next summer to get a young F or D.

Like Vantel said, you could then trade MD in a package for a F or D

I would not be surprised if this was already on the whiteboard at Benning's office

Rather stick with developing MD & Silovs. More pressing needs.

Jake. The other 2 don't make sense at all.

Nothing recent comes to mind. Maybe when Roger Neilsen waved the white towel?

I think they'll hold off on JV until closer to free agency. They have enough cap now to make trades through the draft. Plus maybe there might be a chance he's pawned off in a package. AZ wanted him for example.

When John Tortarella tried to fight the entire Flames team outside their dressing room.

I know it is a bold prediction but I will leave them as it is. Reading things a few weeks back ,somewhere else , I have reasons all three will be gone one way or the other.

Is that JV, Holtby & MDP?

Why Ferland?

- Nucker101

Didn’t Clark say take a goalie 2/3 years?

I think we’re due for a late round goalie this year.

Why Ferland?
- Nighthawk

What if he is wanting to play?

Rather stick with developing MD & Silovs. More pressing needs.
- Nighthawk

Keep the pipeline flowing.
I got no problem with a later round gamble on a goalie.

Just not #9
