Maybe a change of scenery swap of two LHD in the wrong roles? Then again, Butcher might not fit a role there. Maybe they like Miles Wood too? Butcher+Wood for Ghost and filler?

See, I kind of feel like Florida makes him out to be way worse than he is just because I think that they feel cheated that he's not a 70 point guy. He seems to be an okay 40-50 point guy though, you know? Like, he was pacing at 50 points last year. This year even better. He hasn't been under that pace since his second year in the league. Good possession numbers. The only year he had a sub 50 Corsi was ironically the year he scored 75 points lol. Most of his points are 5 on 5, which is good. Always been a very good face off man. He's creating scoring chances in line with the likes of Barkov, Huberdeau (but lower high danger changes). I'm seriously confused by what the issue is with him.

As you said, maybe they just feel cheated by his career year? I dunno. I don't think we'll look to add vets via trade though unless it's player for player. Certainly aren't going to do what Shero did and trade draft capital IMO. Trochek and Ghost would be nice additions but they are both 27 this year.

He just said things to say things. There's no basis for thought in any of it. It's just a "no I don't want to trade Palmieri" type deal. There's no rhyme or reason for what he's saying.

Yeah, I think they are just outside of our window. If they were 24? Jump all over it. But they are "next contract at 30" guys by the time we're competing.

With 2, possibly 3 more picks in the first round after that (depending on trades) I think we could hit forwards hard the rest of the round, in a deep draft, especially if Arizona misses the playoffs.

Absolutely. I think, as long as we don't pick top 2, Drysdale is the top target on the board with how valuable young dmen are. Stutzle could be a superstar too so it'd be hard to pass on him though. I don't want to draft for need but I really want Drysdale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
