Agree. Nice source. Pretty bang on to my previous posted projection on NHL/AHL except for OJ, DD & Palmu. Also noticed they totally missed listing MacEwen & Chatfield anywhere. Plus not updating affiliation on ECHL Kalamazoo.

Now that is a good post bro
Quick & to the point ,đź‘Ť

Like to see Palmu in Utica.
OJ maybe 9 games or not & prolly back to Jr save a year of ELC & no rush.
Idk if Macewen is signed yet

Benning would be dumb to pay Bo over 5 mil. He is not that good

Maybe trade Sven at the TDL if making a play for Kane as a UFA for LW?
Sooner if NYI offers up good picks. 2-1sts & 2-2nds to play with.
IMO they might be open to some more scoring & Sven might make sense.
He needs to take his game to another level for me to keep him or another pawn for the rebuild for the right price.

After reading the last few pages from last night, there's only one thing I can say. Wow.

I don't think you want to pay a third line center 6 mil. He did go the last quarter of the season with 0 goals (17 games).

I think Canucks are looking for a different style and that is why they drafted Pettersson instead of Glass.

Bo is a good player but I think when the dust settles he will be more like Malhotra and not like Marner.

I think bring Bo back at 3 years bridge deal and see how he does with Boeser type players instead of Higgins type players.

Up late the pops were going down nice.

I think Benning's probably dumb then. I'd be surprised if he signs for less than 5.

They took the player they thought had the higher ceiling.

If I was Benning I would say I want to see what I have another year or two. I go back to the saying I have used a few times. Being the best apple of a rotten bunch of apples doesn't make you a great apple.

I see the cap hit anywhere from 4.5 to 5.5 . Bo could be nothing more than Adam Gaudette. Take a better look at what you have before committing big money long term.

I don't think so. So far he comes as advertised maybe even better. Too early to say but I really do like this years draft and free agency.

I wanted Glass at first until I saw more of Pettersson. The fact that some scouts said if he weighed more he would have went first overall is a good sign as well.

Another top 5 pick next year, a new and improved scouting staff will have things looking not too bad in a few years.

I truly am excited about this teams prospects. I think Pettersson has the potential to be a 1C but too early to set the 2020 roster.


I think Bo will be one of the best third line centers in the game . He hasn't done enough for me yet to say he will be a top second line center. That is why I think it is crazy to give him high end money so early. See what you have.

Bo produced at a low end 1C scoring pace last season. This is craziness. Guaranteed high end 2 C in my opinion. At the age of 21 he produced 52 points with limited PP time kid is a stud and is already better than a 3 C

There's a bit of depth at C going into camp. Gagner will make things interesting, plus there's also Chaput!

If he is a stud he will still be a stud in two years , so why not wait an see. Hitting twenty goals for the first time and fifty points for the first time does not mean it will happen every year. See if he does that this year playing top line minutes and getting other teams top players playing against him . What's the hurry to lock him down and in 3 years trying to trade him if he turns out to be another RNH salary?
