Toronto is a projected $4m over the cap. That's like deliberately taking your pants off and popping a couple of Roofies at a frat party... to take Tanev, they would need to shed around $9m...

Would not be surprised if the #Canucks investigate signing UFA Dwight King.

I am happy we got EP, I watched glass numerous times and hes nothing special, EP has elite potential, glass 2c ceiling imo.
- Bettmanhatesus

watching EP in video and in last nights game you can sure see the elite skill he has. We certainly scored with that pick. He has sick stick handling, puck dangling moves and the hockey smarts to go with it, definitely in the elite player conversation.

When you view glass you can see he is a good player with how he reads plays and uses his smarts but does does possess skills like EP. Glass scores because he does not hold onto the puck and has a quick release. As soon as he gets the puck he shoots and he puts himself in good positioning to score. Definitely a good player but needs the right players to feed him for those type of goals, which is what limits him.

We certainly drafted the best player...perhaps in the entire draft even. It would be fun to watch him with good nhl talent. With his sick hands a few shifts with the sedins passing to him could be quite entertaining.

Don't underestimate how much a C can drive the play.
Wingers r not normally like Gaudette or Kane.

dont know much about him other than he fights. Could be a replacement for DD if he cant play. DD is likely a much better player though by the sounds of it (from various comments posted here previously).

Personally, if DD cant play Id look at Labate to fill his role rather than a ufa.

What are you saying exactly about wingers? Are you saying they dont usually drive the play?

I know MacEwen is heading to Comets but I would rather see

King MacEwen Dorsett over Magna Gaunce Dorsett

Wait until he announces he's staying in school for the full 4 years and then going the UFA route.
