The scented ones don't mask the smell when you eat asparagus.

If Vegas was smart they would do everything they could to load up on prospects...especially if they get patrick.

Only critiques i have is splitting up BO & Sven & not assuming who we draft.

I went to see Owen tippet and Nic Hague play today. Tippett is a legit beast, carried the entire game. He's physical, drives the play up ice, but makes smart passes through the neutral zone, got a fierce shot, and is shot first once inside the ozone. He also played in every situation. I know he's a winger but man I think he's a great consolation prize if all the good centres are gone. I also think he's one of the closest to being NHL ready, he reminds me of Kesler.

My sole reason for not listing Tippett or any wing for that matter is we r loaded up on the wings & need top C's & a stud D. Tippett & Tolvanen both r good but we need to deal to make room for another winger. Maybe it bappens idk.

Also I haven't written JV off yet. I think he will come to camp ready this year. He could also earn a spot. So much depends(Vantel) on how these picks a young players come to camp fighting for a spot. I am actually more excited about this training camp than I have been in many years.

BIG, kinda like Issac Ratcliff, slightly awkward skater, but decent mobility side to side. Tough in front of the net, not a big hitter tho. Got a big shot on the PP, that's makes it through to the net. He made some amazing defensive plays in situations where he could've easily been penalized. Reminded me of Tyler Myers but I wish he was more like Colton Parayko. For that reason I hope we don't take him, but I think he'll go high. Dallas should take him.

I think Bo Sven and Gralund look good as a top line start there
- VANTEL


We need a Righty for Bo I think, lots of good left wing options. Don't really know why he bothered moving Granlund from the Sedins, thought he fit in well with those two.

how I'd roll the lines for the remainder

Baertschi-Bo-Goldy(when he returns)
Dank-Hank-Granlund
Gaunce-Chaput-Boucher
Megna-Shore-Labate


shut down tanev/sutter when Markstrom/Goldy return from injury.
