For Tarsenko yes but not Tyler Toffoli

We get Tarasenko out of the top 5

we get Tyler Toffoli will be picking in the top still
- gerbe75pts

My point was if we ended up with picks 2-5 next year what forwards would be better than Toffoli?

I would take Tarasenko over anyone in next years draft

Can't fix them all...

I have noticed some posters stopped using "could care less".
Some are just more stubborn than others.

Matthews is going to be better then Tarasenko but it's going to be so hard to get the first overall pick so I would risk it

I know a lot of people hate day but I truly believe he is going to a generation talent defenseman and you're going to be looking at the next greatest defenseman in the NHL everyone should know I'm crazy about this guy lol

I could see Mathews being better but how long is it going to take for him to get there? Tarasenko is there now and only 23. I wouldn't be too worried about it even if the pick ended up 1st overall.

Day reminds me of the kid growing up who is a great player early cause he is bigger and fatter than everyone else hits 100 home runs blah blah then as everyone else grows he just remains a fat p o s . Day is big and that is all he very well may fall out of the top 10 over the course of the year.

I dont think we have a shot at matthews and most of the draft early is euros so ill have to read up on them

Fasching dont forget and carrier
- hubie

I think carrier will be a borderline third line player

we need an absolute stud winger coming up and we don't have one in my opinion

Tarasenko!!!!!

Kane Eichel Tarasenko
Moulson Reinhart Ennis

OMFG I need a tissue

Edit: You could even switch Moulson and Kane to make the lines more even if you wanted

if Matthews was in the draft he be going 3rd and he be playing in the NHL next year a be in the race for rookie of the year

I think carrier will be a borderline third line player

- gerbe75pts

pick 21 IMO is that target if they do not trade for one

then go d in rounds 2 and 4

nothing but euros and goalies after that

Tarasenko!!!!!

Kane Eichel Tarasenko
Moulson Reinhart Ennis

OMFG I need a tissue
- Stripes77

no way in hell reinhart gets 50 points on that line


the key to that is 3rd line of foligno, girgens and gionta would be a pain in the ass for other teams

I'm honestly not a mat Molson fan still confused why we singed him but that's just me

- homiedclown

Nope no chance at all.

Then a 4th line of

Deslauriers Larsson and McCormick

That actually looks like on paper anyway a real NHL lineup

I think carrier will be a borderline third line player

Time will tell. Some of them might be diamonds when they hit 23. Or dog doocky

- gerbe75pts

It sure would be a pretty good draft, and he missed by like 2 or 3 days if im not mistaken. Not to mention would be a best case scenario for the Yotes

Tarasenko!!!!!

we havent had a line we expect to score in a long time and that would be amazing

Sabres big on Lehner. Offering up one of our 3rds for him currently.
Holtby on radar too but it depends if they lose out on Lehner. Besides Holtby take a look at other RFA's out there, because Sabres sure are. They want to offer sheet someone this summer. Toffoli, Saad, Tarasenko, and dougie Hamilton are on the radar.

Lots of interest in the Mike Reilly sweeps and if they don't get him and don't trade away that 2nd first round pick we have it looks as if they will use that selection to pick a d man. If Hanifin falls Murray wants to move up with that pick
- Beezer33

im good with a third rounder for whatever goalie we get. my guess is ottawa waits to see if somebody will top that, so it could be a while if thats the case. as far as the offer sheets go- it seems like anybody thats available for under 3.7 million isnt gonna be much of a difference maker, and anybody thats gonna cost more than that is either gonna get matched or cost us a pound of flesh along with the contract. and the ufa market is pretty weak all around this year. im hoping that murray is good as i think he is, because any real upgrades we make are gonna come at the cost of assets we already have.

he was absolutely fantastic this year and people are overlooking him because of his Shi t team once he gets off that pathetic team he will be back in the discussion he did not get granted exceptional status for his sizeyou will see next year he's going to explode and everyones going to be saying day ... All day

I've been waiting for us to hit a diamond in the rough stud it hasn't happened yet so I'm not going to get my hopes uphave we ever hit a diamond in the rough in the last past 10 years and I mean like an absolute stud

we havent had a line we expect to score in a long time and that would be amazing
- hubie

It's all a pipe dream of course but the pieces are there to make it happen if they wanted to. Throw out a 7 year $60 million contract at Vlad and watch St. Louis lose their minds

GUess the big question is how much does TM want to go for it. If we are one player away then by all means go for it
