Sharks are targeting Cole Eiserman at 11 according to Elliott

Im standing pat on my thoughts of trying to fleece Vegas of players because of their cap situation. Nicholas Roy, Braden McNabb and Keegan Kolesar. We can send the rights to Lindgren the other way plus a couple prospects. As well as giving a look to Stephenson and Marchessault. Kiefer Sherwood is someone I like for the bottom 6, and should be half the cap hit of Jeannot. The thought process here is to go heavy on proctive players at even strength. Bjugstad could be a good get because of the extremely friendly cap hit.

I dont know why people think Stamkos plays RW when I dont recall him ever doing so. He has played LW plenty however.

Whoa. That's new!

If I were to make a prediction I say Kakko goes to Anaheim for the 31st and 58th overall picks.

And then the Rangers use that draft currency to wheel and deal a bit

That’s so dumb to have that out there. Now teams know to move above 11 to get him potentially lol

I like this more than trying to move up. More trade capital

It’s smoke. They will take Zeev.

I wouldn't be thrilled with that. Unless they could turn that 31 and 58 into a roster player I don't see why they would move Kakko for picks this year

I think it was more Elliott speculating than the Sharks putting that out there but it makes sense with the Celebrini connection

Yea can’t see Kakko being used for picks to just keep as they are trying to win now. Has to be a roster player

I wouldn't be thrilled with that. Unless they could turn that 31 and 58 into a roster player I don't see why they would move Kakko for picks this year
- SkjeiStadium

Would you do Kakko for Veleno?

Jeff Marek has Anaheim taking Zeev at 3. Should be interesting tonight there's really no consensus beyond 1

Oh yeah I think multiple moves are coming.

But I still think verbeek was watching Kakko in person for a reason leading up to deadline

I can just see the “smaller” NCAA D man slipping when some of the other guys are 6’3”+

Come on. So Kakko + 30 to move up four spots and add another second. No thanks
- NYR11

🤷‍♂️. Kakko to move up get into the second round and 2.4 mil in cap space. Seems fair to me based on the trades on the market so far. I thought it was even. Maybe even a tad generous towards ny.

I would not

So you’re still high on Kakko? I figured the cheaper center capable option might be preferable for you guys.

Kakko and the rights to Lindgren for Vatrano and Gudas?

Yep could definitely see that. I think Levshunov goes 1st of the D. I'd take Zeev next but could easily see teams going for Silayev for size alone. Silayev could be the best player in this draft or not even worth a 1st rounder IMO

I wouldn't say I'm high on Kakko but I think he's a good 3rd line player that only costs $2.4M. He had 40 points two years ago and still plays well defensively and has strong underlying stats.

The rangers also have their top 3 centers right now in Zib, Trocheck and Chytil. I don't think Veleno is better than any of them. We need RW which Kakko is

- aecliptic

Yes. But I dont think the Rangers have any interest in trading Lindgren

Is he that bad or was the trade for him originally just awful for what he brings
- nyrangers2

He's not good and should not be a piece you want if the goal is to win. For me, oh it's a yes.

They may want to roll Othmann as that 3rd line wing for next year and use Kakkos cap space else where
