2017 Stanley Cup Finals: Nashville Predators vs. Pittsburgh Penguins
amato replied to Hockeytown0001's topic in General
This has been quite the series for home crowds.. wow. -
If we were to get him, I imagine it'd be a trade rather than an offer sheet. Don't know a ton about him but he's young and probably still improving.. if it doesn't cost too much, why not? I have no clue what it would cost though.

It probably helps a little that they're winning in the cup final too.. let's do that. -
Right. Why would we want a skilled center with a ton of upside? Silly me
-
Now I'm imagining a top prospect in the draft doing exactly this on his first pull-up attempt thanks for that. It is somewhat surprising. Maybe his weight is 70+% legs haha I'm sure he'll put on plenty of weight at Minny but damn that picture of him is a little sad... Hopefully this helps him fall to us

Correct. After this coming season it turns to a modified NTC for his last two years where he submits a 19 team "no trade list" according to cap friendly https://www.capfriendly.com/players/jonathan-ericsson

If I'm a toothpaste company, I offer him a commercial contract ASAP -

I saw a different take on this suggesting Crosby said something worse but saying something joking around like that was PK's way of leaving it on the ice. Obviously that's just wild speculation but I guess it doesn't make any less sense than anything else? That or maybe PK is trying to create a distraction for Crosby/the pens? I don't know.. kind of a weird situation all around. -
Tippett would be great.. I just don't see him falling to 9. And I definitely don't see us trading up for him. Necas I'm not sure of but I do want a top center prospect and I'd trust their judgement if they took him.

Nashville has now won more cup finals games than the capitals! -
Agreed. And I like Jensen. I think if XO is exposed, I'd take him for sure if I were vegas... barring any deal being in place of course.

Yeah you're most likely correct. And I agree about last time.. Murray got robbed. -

Don't know if this was mentioned around last game or not but wow. Gotta be in conn smythe consideration if they win, right? -
Not the man, the myth, the Melen!!

Click bait. He's staying home until he can't physically play anymore. Wouldn't mind him coming back in some capacity eventually though. Even just to help coach prospect camps or something.

Brutal game for Rinne for sure but he does still have a .934 s% and 1.83 gaa through 17 playoff games. He should bounce back. -
Do iiiit. Haha you guys would love it. Their games are so hype and you can sit as close as third row for $20 regular season (Not sure about playoffs). Fridays have $2 beers and hotdogs too
-
Ah gotcha, I misunderstood the logjam part then. And yeah I think either Ouellet or Jensen will be protected.. with Ouellet seeming more likely if the two. I think we'll keep all of our picks unless someone we like drops a little and we trade down to add a pick and still target them. Mostly d-men and centers is what we need for sure. But I won't be surprised if we take one goalie later in the draft.
-
Yeah the progress of our younger defensive prospects so far makes me feel a lot more comfortable about this draft. I still think we should pick 3 d-men in the first three rounds somewhere based on need/ the amount of picks we have. But it's nice to have a little more flexibility than my previous thinking of needing to draft primarily d-men this draft (If that makes sense). I don't think we'll have quite the same logjam though. I think Vegas will end up picking one of Ouellet Jensen or Sproul; and isn't Marchenko on the leafs now?
-
yeah unfortunately a few teams ahead of us will likely be targeting d-men. i would love liljegren or makar at 9.. hoping for one of those guys. of the one you listed in the first grouping, suzuki seems the most likely to still be there. Glass I'd say has a reasonable chance as well. trading back could be interesting as any of them (minus mittelstadt, who as you've pointed out/i don't think will even be there at 9) could go anywhere from 10-30 it seems. I think the "weak draft" mantra that keeps going around lead to a lot more uncertainty and makes this draft more exciting overall.
-
Out of curiosity, which five would you be okay with that have a reasonable chance of being there at 9?
-
Yeah a little surprised he didn't wait until the off season to see if he got another contract. Likely would've been one year with deadline moving potential though and maybe he was sick of that and/or his body was just done. He did play physical hockey for a pretty long time. Whatever the reason, congrats Ott. It was a pleasure seeing you hit people and chuck some knucks in the winged wheel.
