Didn't most of the top 15 in that draft turn into crap?
- mdw7413

the guys we debated over were Middlestadt or Vilardi

both took a long time to pan out, I don't know if we would have had the patience for either situation, Vilardi had significant back issues

I don't recall anyone saying the word Necas that day

Some did. But Hischier, Makar, Heiskanen and Pettersson are all franchise cornerstones.

I do believe the big narrative though for a couple of solid years would have been "we used the 7th overall pick on a guy with a terrible back?"

Probably. But when's healthy, he's good.

definitely and Kings were able to use him as a nice trade chip

Yeah I remember that. That draft doesn't bother me as much as Laf. Not that we shouldn't have taken that pick, obviously, just that we thought we were getting so much more

They were always taking Laf. All teams would have. I refuse to believe Lias Andersson is taken 7th in 2017 by the other 30 teams at the time.

Florida waived Denisenko

I remember I was Florida in our mock draft and I took him for Florida, and then they selected him in real life.

Thought I was a wizard

I don't understand what their plan is.

Boborov and Clark sucked

All, out of pocket for weekend due to Jewish holiday. Dad is back in hospital as is younger daughter. Going to try and get a blog up Sunday night after the holiday or Monday, life permitting.

Jonny Brodzinski and Ben Harpur are on waivers, as first reported by
@FriedgeHNIC , which tells us: A) Filip Chytil and Tyler Pitlick are likely good to go; B) Will Cuylle is making this roster. #NYR

Can someone please claim Harpur? I just know he will be the 6th guy at some point if not

I imagine Jones gets traded because gus seems like an absolute steal. Jones will be fine somewhere else and it’s time for him to get playing time. Doesn’t seem like it’s here. That would probably leave harpur as the 7th d

Speaking of trades. Pettersson has 1 year left on his contract. If he some how becomes available the rangers have to inquire. Chytl, Laf, Jones, goodrow at 1st

You think they move him? Depending on what they get back I might rather just keep him as the 7th to start. Don’t think his value can be that high on the market

He’s worth nothing to us sitting in the press box.

Wonder what this is about

Edit: laf has upper body injury

Or is about to be traded but not really

That's just the majority of the fan base. I'm still hoping for something. Over the last 2 years he's 2nd in 5 on 5 goals for team. There has to be a decent NHL player in there somewhere.

I think laf is going to have a GREAT year!
