Disagreed for Sven. I think he hits 25 goals next year if he's healthy.
- pker2theend

I tend to agree with you. I believe Sven will be a legit 2nd line player next season. He is arguably the most skilled player on the team after the Sedins

Is it Tuesday already?
- A_SteamingLombardi

Aren't Tuesday's for negative thoughts

He can't even make the Swiss team for the World Championship, but Weber made the team.
- A_SteamingLombardi

I dont believe that. I suspect he declined due to injury or for personal reasons. Did you actually read this somewhere?

columbus has not agreed to give up the 2nd in this yr draft,they won't do it this yr especially at 33 sorry but there's next yr to think about.

Sedins have never been labelled second liners. First liners are usually all-stars. Do you see Sven ever being an All-star?
- manvanfan

I hear what he's saying.
There were doubts about the ceiling for the Sedins when they were drafted.
I think he means that they rode shotgun to the Westcoast express for years (as they should have).

I'm happy for Sven to prove me wrong and continue developing, but i'm not penciling him into the 1st line anytime soon.

Hard to say, isn't really a market for a 6 mill back up goalie.
- manvanfan

He is a starting goalie Anaheim just crashed and burned and may be in the market. I do not know if there is a market for Miller.

You still give up a second for a coach that put you guys almost in last place

There is no wondering. It will obviously be 2018.

and got them Jesse Puljujarvi...

If JB is willing to deal the 5 pick and other parts. I say try to get Jost and Fabbro in the middel of the first round. I know they played in the BCHL but they will only get better by playing in the NCAA and will be ready to make an impact in 3-4 years from now.

Hansen and a 4th for Boston's 14th
our 5th and next years 3rd rounder for Montreal's 9th and McCarron

A ton of cap relief and 3 solid prospects coming back our way.
- Itsjustarash

Not putting them on the same level, but because they go NCAA doesnt mean they will pan out. Jankowski spent 4 years there and didnt progress like Feaster had hoped. Both likely to make the NHL but to what degree is hard to say. Even Turris took several years to find his groove and isnt what you would call an all star at 3rd overall

He can't even make the Swiss team for the World Championship, but Weber made the team.

Means nothing

- CanuckDon

Most likely. Unless next year is forecasted as super weak.

Is it Tuesday already?
- A_SteamingLombardi

no, no it's not.

you are correct but you still won't get this yrs 2nd from columbus so quit trying to spend it, it's not yours to spend 34th pick

no, no it's not.
- manvanfan

It is here.

JB said they would keep him around to mentor Jacob, does that sound like Van even believes he is a starting goalie?

Sounds like they want to develop him further.
He's still green.

Not that we couldn't go out and grab a cheap vet to insulate Markstrom...

We have two legit starting goalies and some teams have none. I'm not sure what to say to you if you don't think Miller is a starting goalie. Markstroms strong play doesn't diminish Millers ability or value.

Well other then phi, cgy, buf, ari, tor. Those are about the only teams that i'd say doesn't have a better goalie then Miller.

its not as if Van isn't going to get a 31-40 pick from you in the next 2 years.
