    Does anyone have Jimmy's number? I have something to tell him.

    Just read a Montreal fan trade proposal... Mantha for Domi, Mete and a conditional pick in 2021, 3rd becomes a 2nd based on performance. Is that reasonable? If we trade Mantha I think I'd want a younger asset than Domi, unless we flip him for picks too. #5yearplan

    You should actually read posts before replying... I didn't actually say that did I? Hence the use of the word "if".

    Is that what I said? Stop injecting your own narrative and faux outrage on the posts of others. Did I not say he's a legit prospect... seriously you seem to have a deep seeded need to be a complete prick.

    Picking Perfetti, as I've said before, is 2000s Oilers type bafoonery. Is he a legit prospect sure... but if the tipping point is a connection to the state and a connection to a former teammate and not something in his game, then we're doomed. I'd like one of Stuzle, Byfield (if available) or if not Rossi, Drysdale, Raymond. A pro coach I know personally raved about Rossi.

    I'd love to have a trade in place and if he's selected be able to back out.

    Saw this in Instagram probably about as accurate as Fox "news".

    At this point our rebuild seems to be have been forced, by constantly dropping in the lottery, into the Blues/Islanders model. By that I mean no ELITE pieces but maybe several star/high end players and tonnes of depth. Not to say we're close to that end result, but unless we get a few 2nd round gems or better lotto results I see this team post rebuild as a deep team with no superstar elite players.

    I think you're being optimistic... I see us more at the quarter mark of the rebuild.

    Yea I think Zadina is trash... and that we made a "Hughes" error in that draft... how that is remotely relevant to this conversation is beyond me! I'd suggest making a relevant counterpoint (if you can) or shutting your whiney ass up.

    All they're doing is repeating the valid points you disagree with, just relax.

    It is what it is... He's a serviceable player but not worth more than 2M.

    Hope so... I think Perfetti is a Zadinaesque mistake in the making...

    This is silly but Fabbri did get over paid... I was thinking more in the 2M range. though it is "only" 950K it is an overpayment on an injury plagued assest with a very short track record of success. That should have been plenty of leverage to strong arm him in to that 2M range maybe even less. The point being made, and missed by the "brain trust" around here is that with Mantha and Bert their is far less leverage and if we overpaid for an asset we didn't have to, we might be taken to the cleaners on them, Can I have neither for 500 Alex? If he's on a better team he likely wouldn't get as much ice time and would be down the line up... double edged sword.

    I'd bet he doesn't engage you because you're an arrogant prig who sits at the keyboard waiting to pounce on anyone who posts... you're especially toxic when someone makes a well reasoned, well constructed point that challenges your opinion, because it's easier to attack than consider the obvious... that you're wrong.

    Love the post, but I'll point out the obvious error in bold.

    Yea if he's our pick, I'm afraid we're tuning into the late 90s/2000s Oilers...

    2020 Draft Thread

    As a fan of this team I'm looking at position 4 plus... history has shown in Bettman's NHL we will drop 2-3 spots and we likely won't be dead last again next year. I'm going to mentally prepare for getting screwed in the draft lottery by pretending the top 3 prospects don't exist.
