Dear Heavenly Father Please hear our plea. We have suffered Lord and shown through the vast desert of losses we have shown our love for our team. But Lord we are pleading that you deliver us the #1 pick this year. You know the NHL has conspired against your Winged Wheel children by only giving us 18.5% of a potential game changing player. We need you almighty one to put us in the 1st spot. If you will deliver us this pick we will not complain about the coaching or goaltending till the All-Star break In thou's name ...amen

tomorrow IS the day we secure Lafreniere!!!

You shut your filthy mouth!

Of course its deserved, one of the best GM's of all time. Congrats Kenny!

Eat it Holland haters.

No surprise here

Well deserved! One of the greats.

I can't name more than a dozen people who post comments here with regularity. Considering how many thousands of people have joined the site over the years, I would consider that a dying breed. I don't wanna be another Nashville. All D, no scorers and no cup. I would rather go F this year and solidify the top 6.

Just imagine if we draft Drysdale and suddenly have a huge logjam of really good dmen in the next couple years. Yzerman would be big time trading from a position of strength.

Yeah, just saying it would be an option, depending on how the rest of our d-prospects pan out, and / or if we add in free agency / (other) trade(s)... I think one of Bowey, Lindstrom or Tuomisto could be a viable option on the bottom pair, right side, and I'd prefer one of them, than wasting a Hronek or Seider down there. In my opinion, our two biggest needs are, a high-end left-handed defenseman and a high-end right-handed scoring forward. The way this draft is looking, we won't be filling either of those holes. We'll likely end up with either a high-end left-handed forward (Lafreniere, Byfield or Stutzle) or a high-end right-handed defenseman (Drysdale). I'd be more than happy with any of those players, but it may make other players already in the organization expendable in the next few years time, which is fine.
