Catton is the better prospect and ranked Higher

the Top 10-12 will be interesting. Obviously after Macklin and Demidov, its wide open to me.

Flacccoville is Jet Jaguar XL? Jet Jaguar XL is Flacccoville? This picture reminded me of a long dissertation, I believe authored by Jet Jaguar XL, on what really happened to Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman. The dissertation wasn't a very impressive piece of work, but was similar to the off the wall conspiracies Flacccoville has been writing on here lately.

Jet Jaguar XL has been bouncing back and forth between alts and calling Flacccoville a crack pot to get us off his scent.

Can’t bounce between alts if they’re all banned

Sabres will go after Berkly Catton, that's my prediction. iggy will be gone by the time the Sabres will pick most likely

Team could use a goal scorer and maybe the best of recent drafts is there in Eiserman. 6 ft. 200 lbs already

Granato will have it in order by next season I was told, that's not a joke.

Another 160lb forward would go in line with our recent history.

I wonder if him, Savoie and Benson would be the smallest NHL line ever assembled.

She's easily a 9.5/10. Her, Dana Perino and a couple nice bottles of Merlot would be a wonderful evening.

Spankings for all.

but seems to be slipping on many draft boards after the playoffs he had in the WHL. There is a lot of hype around Iggy at the moment, would not be surprised to see him go between 5th and 8th. Habs will draft a forward, Celebrini will go first, Habs would like Lindstrom but he could be gone, I think Iggy is the next guy they would look at on their draft board.

Interesting to see D!ckinson and Lindstrom just keep climbing while Eiserman and Jiricek fall. Personally, I think Buium could have the best career of the D in that 5-20 range and Eiserman could really surprise. His shot really is wunderbar.

Would be something if he fell, but

Catton
Helenius
Yakem
Parekh
Eiserman
Tij
Buium

is our range if we don't trade the pick.

Our total on defense is about 25m. which is middle of the road. Teams like Carolina, Vancouver, Boston, Vegas and Winnipeg all pay more at the position and are near the top of that stat. Do you think these teams are built poorly or are too back heavy?
- QuinnFan


For '24-25, 1-6Dmen
-Buffalo will likely be at ~$35/36m, if it is Cliffy & Sammy on 3RD Pair and they get/resign another D for ~$4m for top 4
-Carolina if they retain their 6 would likely be in that range as well, maybe a bit less ($33m)
-VGK in the $31m range if they walk away from Martinez and sign Hannifan to $8 or $9m
-Vancouver is harder given the number of expiring contracts, but maybe ~$32/33m

Those contain a lot of projections, who knows what really happens.

But if that is close, based on play this season as the baseline I'd pick Buffalo's D 4th...maybe 3rd of that group. Vancouver's is up in the air for me until it is solidified.

Buffalo's issue is that they have $19m wrapped up in 2 guys and Byrams deal lurking...if he gets $7m that Top 4 becomes super expensive and the balance needs to come from somewhere.
'25-26
Dahlin $11m
Power $8m
Byram $7m
Top 4 TBD $5m
Sammy $4.4m
Cliffy $3.3m
~$39m total

I don't see it...and if Sammy is the Top 4 and RyJo is 6th...that helps alot
