I just hate trading down you are rarely getting the better players. Hopefully they know something. I personally dont think we need more third rounders and dont think you can get a good enougj player with thirds to interest me in attaining more .

Devils have been good with late draft picks lately. So I'm not concerned.

Key word is not same subban as before. His game is in decline and was supported huge by Nashville defence depth. No josi to protect him anymore and a boat anchor of a contract. How did Nashville grab devils best defensive prospects in this trade and two draft picks.

Look up Ty Smith so you know who are best defense prospect is.

I hate seeing you embarrass yourself. Again.


And again.

Trouba wasnt gonna sign here, so no lol. Its been made clear there was a list of only 2 teams he'd sign with.

Trouba would have signed with NJ, if his wife goal to be a doctor in NYC living in Jersey wouldn't have been a problem, just travel across the river and she is there.

We had picks when there was still first round talent available and where to good to draft that high. Obviously I wont complain about the pick used to acquire Subban as that was a great trade but we go from have three 2nds to basically having a bunch of thirds.

They recouped picks given up in the Subban deal that have nearly the same expected value...

Your GM turned Larsson, two B prospects and two 2nd round picks into Taylor Hall and PK Subban. Nice.

Yep ... that's good GM'ing.

Outside of Hughes we havent drafted a guy who ppl will walk away from this draft and say wow but we could of had about 3 by now where you are going ok the Devils are having a great draft and maybe we are since we have added Hughes and Subban but we have disappointed me a bit as what could of been with a few of those picks.

I also am not in the believe that we have a loaded enough pool to be passing up on drafting so early.

The guys we have selected high like Zacha Mcleod Bastian have all to date shown to have been safer picks that arent likely to develope into stars outside of maybe Zacha ( I didnt include Smith because he was a great pick and am not worried about him ) I am just saying we potentially could of walked away with 2 new boqvist caliber players in the second and we end up with almost a early 3rd and a safe pick as a 7th dman.

Exactly and the chances of us hitting quality players through out the rest of the draft has dropped significantly even though we added more picks.
