I don't see how they can keep up the juggling act with these salaries. They will have to deal Stamkos next summer, if not now, and Killorn now.

Think its top 10 protected, so 11th would be great. I imagine if they end up sucking, it will be 9th or 10th

Then, Stan can take a beating here

Matvei Michkov, who will not be available for 4 seasons
.
- wiz1901

Just to be clear Michkov will be available, his 5 yr KHL contract he signed as a 16 yr old runs out, for the 25/26 season. So, he gets drafted next summer the 22/23 season. He then plays in the KHL the 23/24 and 24/25 season. That is two NHL seasons he will miss assuming he made an NHL roster as a 19 and 20 yr old.

He'd be an NHLer at 21 yrs old assuming he comes over for the 25/26 season after he honors his KHL contract. ...... Whoever drafts him he will miss the following two NHL seasons, again if he comes over to play NHL.

KD made that trade, but we can blame Stan anyway.

They have been bleeding depth the last 2 seasons and as we know, it will catch up to them. There bottom 6 is a far cry from two seasons ago. Hedman, while still a terrific player, was definitely starting to show some wear from the minutes toward the end of last season.

Both are top 10 protected. I hope they just miss the playoffs and the pick is 15.

If they fall into the top 10 their board will crucify them for not starting their rebuild 3 year's ago.

Mishkov may be in some serious injury trouble. Took a hit from Emelin and his left knee was flying all over the place and he landed awkward on it. Clip had him still on the bench but in a lot of pain.

Too much talent, unless they get off to an injury riddled bad start they will be in the playoffs again. I actually think the other Florida team has a better chance at being bad.

Go take another look at that roster. They will make the playoffs but a 1st round exit puts the pick between 16 and 20.

His knee bent a few different ways. From both the hit and the landing.

I wish Tampa bad luck too, but I don't think they finish 11th overall , BUT it they did win a top three and one in teens, that would be gold in this golden draft.
I have never seen a class like this.

The same doctor that fixed up unibrow Pavel Vorobiev?

So if two teams under us win the lottery, we get Brayden Yager, defender Cameron Allen, nasty Gauthier or one of the other FIVE terrific centres there for us...

I remember, you were the one who highlighted the difference in the third lines of this year and last year. Do you think they have the pipeline over the next few years to replace all the departing veterans?
