Not before Weekes on ESPN announced Columbus at 3rd even though they hadn't done the drawing yet, the NHL really does try to make it seem as shady as possible.

Not surprised, but very annoyed

Apparently Walman is out of Worlds with a lower body injury now.......sounds not great but hopefully just precautionary.

Veleno and Walman will play for Canada

Seems like he had his demons, really sad to see him go so young.

welThis explains the random shoulder injury.

Way too young, sheesh.

I'm oddly really intrigued by Martin. I haven't seen a ton of plays from him but I did see a few where he was really eating up blocks and then pouncing on the running back as they went by him. He also seemed to randomly have good pass rush metrics too when people were discussing him on Twitter. It sounded like he showed really well at the Shrine Bowl too. I'm hoping there's a hidden gem in there especially when you get him in professional strength and health programs.

I thought he missed a game / was day to day when he got called up, at the time I figured it might be managing his games played. Doing a little googling it oddly looks like a lower body injury though. I think it was Gudas who hit him?

I feel like almost every one of the top Wings prospects who either joined GR or Detroit this season got a fairly serious injury, bizarre.

I feel like it might take even more honestly, Connor is only a $7.1 million cap hit for the next 3 seasons which is a steal for a point per game player. A couple first round picks, edvinsson, third round pick, maybe someone like Veleno to give them another cheap roster player with some utility (PK). I could see them trying to find a taker for Ehlers or Scheifle maybe? I am not sure what happens with PLD too, does he finally make his way to Montreal somehow? The Jets are going to be interesting.

An absolute boatload, is there a rumor he's available?

Not too surprising about Grand Rapids. It is probably Watson's job to lose like Shinzaki mentioned. Whoever it is it better be a good choice, there are going to be a lot of prospects to develop in GR the next few seasons I feel like.

Lashoff's last home game*** The Griffins are actually on the NHL Network at 8 pm tonight I think for their last game at Chicago

Griffins fell in Lashoff's last game before retirement. The Griffins made it a big to do with a lot of old teammates recording videos for Lashoff, it was fun.

Oddly enough Bednard looks really good so far from what I've seen, he just made a really nice splits save. I didn't realize he has a .922 save percentage through 5 games so far. It seems like the Griffins are playing teams fighting for playoff spots too.

I missed it but it looks like Lombardi got the primary assist on Hirose's goal tonight, Griffins up 1-0 after a period. Nice speed on the puck retrieval then a nice dish to Hirose. This hype train is going wild

Zadina is going to learn a changeup in the offseason and turn it all around

It is kinda hilarious Larkin finished juuuuuuuuust under a point per game again

This is the analysis I crave

Welp, draft prospect szn. I have no idea who I want the Wings to take so I'm excited to dig in.

It is really tough to enjoy this
