looks good to me...

Drafting a S when you just locked up the best safety in the league is Brad Holmes 3D chess...so...Malaki Starks....if he's there.

Pronman's 1st mock has us taking C Jack Nesbitt...a 6-4 LH shot with a good two way game. Also mentions LHD Jackson Smith if he's there. Have not seen Nesbitt ranked that highly anywhere else.

Fascinating...had no idea they tracked that

With as much switching and pseudo zoning they do...can you trust those numbers?

I would re sign Kane...if they don't they have to find two top six forwards. I would love to sign Tavares...Make him the 1C and let Larkin play wing or bounce the two of them around like they did with the Euro twins back when they were really good. Although Lombardi might be good enough to force the issue a bit. I'd love to see Mazur and Danielson force their way onto the roster next year on the bottom six with Copp, Ras (who I would be open to including in a trade for a LHD) and Compher.

No one is good enough to lead a team into the playoffs on their own. Add a scoring LW with some edge to play alongside Larkin and Raymond and a legit top 4 LHD with some physicality and this is a playoff team

I thought KAT was going to dominate with Stew out (I like Duren...but that's a challenging match up physically) stunned that he was such a non factor

Yes...I think I would

Smith and Mrazek weren't exciting enough for you , Dylan? Yeah..me neither

Finally!! Malik hits a three

Spike Lee thinks he really is Mars Blackmon

Getting Zeke sprained ankle against the Lakers vibes from Stew

Dennis Schroeder is the kind of deadline acquisition Yzerman needs to get

These refs blow goats

Tork smash is equally unexpected

Other than bringing Kane back...every offseason move SY made came up short. Compare that to Trajan Langdon and the Pistons. He brought in Beasley, Hardaway jr and Tobias Harris and all three of them contributed mightily to the team's record improvement. Huge offseason for SY...he needs to make some moves that are more than just stop gaps

Thought they might backslide a bit this year...and they did. Only real bright spots were the emergence of Kapser, Johansson and Edvinsson (lead the team in +/-). They desperately need a top LW to pair with Larkin and Raymond. Improving the D would be nice...but I don't know that they can with the current number of guys under contract

Doubt we can afford to add Forsberg. O'Reilly would be cheaper low hanging fruit in terms of $$$ and the assets needed to get him

Nashville is interesting...they could be looking at a full on rebuild. A guy like Ryan O'Reilley might be worth inquiring about as a top six F with some size and scoring. Two years left with a 4.5 mil cap hit

I think that's a bit much

Cossa has been trending down since the deadline when they went out and got Mrazek...maybe he's bummed at being blocked for a year.

Mize gives up a HR...what a bum

Good stuff from Doc Rivers

He might be...
