Cole Caufield scored more goals than anyone in the @USAHockeyNTDP EVER. Think Matthews, Kessel, Keller.

He tied Alex Ovechkin’s single tournament goal scoring record at the U18 Worlds in Sweden this year. He just scores.

So call it a wash. Both players set records.

Except that we needed to start restocking our D with blue chip players. This is what we have currently:

Zamula - undrafted
Meyers- undrafted
Hogberg- 5th rd, unsigned
Kaynuk- 7th rd
Friedman- 3rd rd
St. Ivany- 4th rd
Wilie- 5th rd
Ginning- 2nd rd
York - 14th overall

That's not to say any of these guys cant make the NHL. But York i think IS now the top defensive prospect...ahead of everyone else.

We already have a bunch of blue chip forwards coming (Frost, Farabee, Strome, Ratcliffe, Ruby, Allison, etc.) It was time to get a 1st round Dman

No, nothing is guaranteed until they perform at the NFL level.

People look at at York and think "He will continue to be solid....with upside"

People SHOULD look at Caufield and think DAMN until this kid proves people otherwise he is a freak.

Freak happens, so I guess we have to be happy with our consensus pseudo-studs.

Orrrrr...Montreal sends him on a quest to drop a ring into a volcano.

I wanted Caufield. But looking back...gotta do whats best and take the biggest need for the team. D is needed. Cant go forward HOPING that the defensemen i listed becomes legit NHL dmen.

Just think if Saint Ronnie would have drafted a dman over JOB...do they take York?

Can't wait to see Giroux take a punt return.

GOOD NEWS

My self-imposed exile is over!

Having said that CHILL OUT let the season play out, see how good our signings are, under Alain V, together, with a full year from Hart.

My biggest problem is that York seems less of a swing for the fences guy than Caufield.

If you do not draft elite talent, how the he'll do you expect to sign them.

That is all

I think we trade an established player, for better or worse.

Would not mind moving Giroux or Jake for 2 younger/cheaper players that make a more complete team.

Who? IDK, that decision is what would make this Fletchers team. and is his job.

Personally want to move on from Jake, reasonable contract or not.

would winnipeg do giroux for connor and ehlers?

They’ve accumulated as many first overalls as the pens did in their tank period.

Really hope Taylor hall goes somewhere else.

Who do you think becomes a serious threat first, the devils or the rangers?

To be fair, does any team really have a deep elite sniper stock?

I’d gladly take him. No reasonable way to make it work though

did i read this right? toronto trades marleau and a 1st to carolina for a 6th?

(frank)ing fletcher learn leverage

Because Marleau wants to go back west and Carolina is likely going to buy him out.

Dont think Ratcliffe can be a sniper? 50g in 64?

Whos to say Caufield even scores 30 at the NHL level?

Its prospects. Caufield could end up being a Martin St. Louis....or not.

York could be the second coming of Brian Leetch as Craig Button said....or not.

Its the draft. Its a crapshoot. Ask the Oilers
