My "source " said the Sabres were asking for 3OA for sam a couple weeks ago.

Ask high, negotiate.

Anahiem can take a killer player at 13?
Danny heatley comes to mind

Which would still mean late 20s to 30s for the draft pick. Montreal just got better with Eichel and only losing Caufield.

Just aweful.

Going well so far for the Hurricanes.

Carolina in discussions with both Jonathan Bernier and Petr Mrazek, hoping to get both UFA goalies signed. Not clear yet if they'll be able to pull it off or not.
Meanwhile, James Reimer (also UFA) is expected to go to market Wednesday where I think he'll have some solid options.

Mrazek will leave the door open to Carolina but his agent Gerry Johannson just told me all signs pointing to his client hitting the market Wednesday

If the Eichel trade does happen it will probably happen around the 3-10 picks depending who acquires him.

Have a feeling that will be when the most pressure comes to acquire him.

From a trying to win right now prospective yes.

If the plan is to go with tokarski .... and then Wright.

Why?
The only reason the Habs made the playoffs this year was due to covid divisions, they had 59 points in the worst division. They shouldnt have been in playoffs, year before play in.

They are lottery picks in 22 and 23

Its a lager night, have to celebrate the Risto trade. Its all I have wanted for the last 4 years. A bag of pucks would have sufficed. The Flyers (C. Fletcher) are so gracious.
