  1. Jack Quinn has hockey IQ. I'd like ppl to tell me which skill of his is so mediocre.
  2. Adams hasn't actively pursued a top 6 forward in 3 years.
  3. I planned on going but got sick. Pretty bummed I'm not there.
  4. What's gonna be funny is when September hits and your tune changes to "let's see who emerges in camp, I have faith in Lindy, they'll be good" Then in November it will be "they didn't start that bad, let's give player X a chance, it's only a month in" Then in January it will be "trade deadline is coming up, Adams will work hard to improve the team by then" Then in April it will be "wow we were so close but there was nothing Adams could do. I bet he trades our first, every one needs to be patient" Then on July 1, "adams will be aggressive in free agency and we drafted such a nice player at 12th, be patient, let's see what he does"
  5. He's the #1 overall option.
  6. Strbak or Kleber? They are the only big 2nd round picks that rhd in the system. Neither is NHL ready.
  7. I don't want most of these signings but like... can we add another NHL player please.
  8. Like Benson, I'd like Helenius to spend a year in Rochester
  9. Scouting season officially kicks off with the Hlinka in August. Here's a look at the early list of players to keep an eye. Note: if you don't care about the draft, just leave it be. While 2024 was the year of defense, 2025 is forwards.
  10. What about trading for Mcgroarty? Idk how much it helps now but he's different than savoue, Rosen, Östlund
  11. You'll hate this, but you draft well. Have a good locker room culture.
  12. I'd give Pavelski as much money as I could for 1 year. He's a pros pro. Win.
  13. What if we call Joe Pavelski and say look dude, we'll give you 9 million for 1 year and I'll trade you to a contender with 50% retained if we're not in a playoff spot.
  14. You know how happy I'd be to be wrong on him? Like feed me all the crow if he's even a legit backup.
  15. the interesting part is that njd had Helenius as their #2 guy left by pick 10.
  16. I think unless Adams makes a trade, Ruff is one beer short of a round.
  17. My favorite is "skates well for his size" ... so his skating sucks but he's tall, cool.
  18. Kleber def had questions about his puck handling. Harrison Brunicke, 6'3" rhd when 2 picks later and I think he's better. That said, you can't teach size. Ziemer fixes his skating a bit and he's got 3rd line 40pt guy written all over him. I loved what I saw of him while watching Stigga. Love the updates. Please keep them coming. Helenius shot was probably his biggest weakness in his draft year. It's not bad, but needs more zip.
  19. Wonder if you could dig Nicolas Roy out of Vegas? He's a big center that's a perfect #3 with some #2 injury coverage and signed for 3 more years. Ik they will ltir Lehner to fix their cap overage but I wonder if they'd take a 1st and Rosen for someone like that to give them some flexibility. I'm spitballing here so don't think it is something that's realistic. Just trying to creatively find solutions.
  20. I think the only way we make the playoffs is if 1 of Kulich, Savoie, or Helenius manages to produce offensively and defensively at the Benson rookie rate.
  21. Jason Karmanos has 25 years of front office experience and multiple cups.
  22. Hamilton was very complimentary of Helenius' skill and compete in dev camp. Said he had stood out the most. Reminded him of Benson last year.
