Cat for the second overall plus change.

Slafkovsky the real deal? 9 points so far at the World so far.

If KD can get the 2nd overall plus a first next year and a top prospect one would think he would have to at least listen to the offer.

Some Buffalo arm chair GM's on capfriendly want Murphy so he can be paired with Power. Maybe a trading partner there. Doubt if he will return a 1st. Maybe he can be packaged with another prospect to expand the deal and increase the return. Sure would like to pry away their prospect Peterka somehow.

Also maybe Dallas will be looking for a RD if Klingberg walks.

Maybe something there. Sabres have only 3 d-men signed for next season currently.

As long as his brain pain is gone - he would probably be fine there.

They have the cap space and assets to take Jones as well though maybe that doesn't fit the need. Anahiem maybe a better target there if that is the case.

I would think Calgary would want somewhere to put the Monahan contract and possibly Backlund or Lucic since they have to pay Johnny Hockey and Tkachuk.

Toronto needs cap help.

The Hawks should have a good opportunity to take on some salary to get draft picks other than just moving assets.

Maybe something there. Sabres have only 3 d-men signed for next season currently.

Can add the rights to Kalynuk to the trade package.

Game 4 was the first time #TimeToHunt were shutout all season long.

Cats scored the most goals in a single season in the salary cap era.

Would require more than just that but gotta start somewhere.

Probably that + another first a second and a guy.

Maybe the second overall, plus a good prospect, plus 2 seconds and a 4th gets it done.

This was the Tafolli haul so Debrincat should probably garner a bunch:

Tyler Pitlick · $1,750,000
Emil Heineman · $0 (AHL/JR) (Signing Rights)
2022 1st round pick (CGY - #30) [Conditional]*
2023 5th round pick (CGY)
2024 4th round pick (CGY) [Conditional]***

Wow.

that bodes well for them when they play CO or EDM

I'd have to imagine that if it is COL/EDM it will be the closest thing to a track meet we've ever seen.

Mike Smith vs. Keumper The battle of former Coyote tenders.

But his best girlfriend is former Hawk Campbell, not ever a defensive stalwart at taking the larger bodies either.

I am not so sure that Marc Kelley wasn't the guy behind drafting offense men, but the league had already seen success with average and smaller defenders who had accurate hard shots foot speed, with the hopes the defensive side can compensate.

(I will never forget in the first game Gustav Forsling played after they acquired him fro Vancouver, how from the point, he put the puck right on net when the hawks filled traffic in the home plate area, how Quenelle looked right over at his assistant like they had acquired a weapon.)
I am not sure of Carolina's reasoning when they placed on waivers by the Hurricanes prior to the delayed 2020–21 season in January and Florida claimed him.

He is a tad under 6 feet and has learned to use his positives in the playing of defense, but I think the game now deploys three type of defenseman who play in the top two pairs, besides the "elites":

Smaller fast jumper mailmen who have the green light to attack.

Giant bruiser types whose biggest offensive weapons are being offensive to the other team's attackers especially the bigger named ones to punish them with the hopes they wear down, back down, or let up.

All around fast bigger guys who eat minutes, block shots, shoot hard and know their way around the offensive side.

There is room for all, there is still an emphasis on quickness up ice and really good hands.
The hawks where looking to repopulate their backline, and I THINK THAT was what they emphasized.
THEN comes that Montreal Tampa Final where the big boy Hab defenders led my Weber player their hearts full of physicality, never letting up, and suddenly there was a new opinion on what teams need in Cup runs.

Hence, trading their 3rd rounder THIS 2022 Draft for the THE 91st slot Taige Harding?????

Don't anybody tell me you can only get a player in the first round, because MY team thinks enough about a giant 6 foot seven former AJHL Fort McMurray team captain defenseman now at Providence College to trade to add to their defender stable with that big buy defender....

Ope. They had a rough go against Washington. Lots of first timers - the coach included - does not help.

Going after Chiarot was an oops. He was very bad and the slowness was a liability.

Can't have a team of lil guys but certainly can't have guys who are easily exposed by faster players either. Again, not to totally beat up Bruno, but he doesn't really have the chops yet to hide players like that when match ups become important either which was bad.

And their best players regardless of the circumstances were underwhelming. Barkov and Hubertdrough didn't do a lot to convince anyone that they are top players.

I think Carolina (assuming they make it) would give Tampa a lot of headaches with their speed.

They will rely upon Power, Dahlin, Samuelson and probably Jokiharju as top five. The 5th dman I forgot hus name but he was formerly one if thise college free agent dmen a few tears ago.

What?

No team is trading the top two or three overall picks in '23.

Wiz means that you can find players with late picks. A few actually turn out to be very good. Good scouting and a smart GM make a difference. Tra ce players background on NHL rosters to confirm
