My annual look at Minnesota's OHL prospects. Some good video in that twitter thread too
Happy to answer any further questions.
Lodnia might be intriguing if we lose Kunin in the ED.
He could, but I don't see him being anywhere near the offensive player Kunin can be.
I also see us going 7-3-1 in the expansion draft and protecting Kunin. Because if Guerin does his job correctly, we should have another center we'd like to protect by then, and possibly one less defenseman.
I'm sure these discussions will ramp up after the season ends, but regarding the ED, I can absolutely see a world where we go 4x4 and opt to keep the bonafide strength of the team together for as long as possible. Kunin a) not being played as a center, and b) being relegated to the 3rd line, lowers the "can't lose this guy" mindset a little bit.
It's not a "can't lose Kunin" mindset, it's a "cant lose the center we acquire, Fiala, or Eriksson Ek while also needing to protect Parise and Zuccarello" mindset.
Best bet to not be a career AHLer?
