it was done on purpose... it was very clear. Suck for Luck was being said before the season started in Indy...

Yup, just like the sabres this season. I just dont think the generational talent comes around enough to justify punishing teams who have very bad seasons for one reason or another. I have always disliked the lottery, am not suprised we didnt win last year, and wont be suprised if we dont again this year.

Anyone have any hot takes on Bogo?

I've liked what I've seen from him. He's a dominating presence. It's awesome.

Exactly what we needed in terms of size, toughness and skating. I love that the core of our team is under 25 and that the D is a little older than the forwards. If we do this right we could have a strong core for years to come.

I liked his burst of speed thru the neutral zone entering the offensive zone the other night, wasnt aware he can skate like that.

Sure. I think NBA is the biggest risk. NFL has been mostly hits lately, though.

I wonder if the 935147 hockey leagues and farm system(s) has a lot to do with NHL's success in player drafting. And I don't exactly wonder more than I suspect.

- DynamicThreads



Id say that has a lot to do with it as well.

There was a reason he was taken 3rd overall.

Lets see if he can meet his potential.

He's just about or freshly entered his prime. Seems like his big knock is he's not as offensively capable as advertised. Maybe he strives in a future system here, or maybe he just crushes face and skates like the wind, then no one with bitsh about his scoring.

I hope NHL deadline day is half as exciting as the NBA deadline this year. Last 30 mins have been incredible.

He might have a couple years before prime. depends on how often he gets injured.

Yes i have liked what ive seen so far as well. Maybe not quite as explosive in skating as myers but no big drop off. Zadorov looks like he may have the most offensive potential of our young blue line, and i love that we have a big strong defenseman filling a role this team needs who fits the timeline just like myers did.

I liked myers and wanted to see him stay, but i am pumped to see kane in the lineup next year.

Like sbroads has said, they are taking a big risk that 51 and 55 are that close to ready.

I hate to say it but it wouldn't be a huge surprise if they got to 28 or 29.
