Do we keep the #9 pick or do we trade down with Vegas and get the #13 and #15 pick stay tuned to find out.
Honestly that's one of the very few trade back proposals I'd be happy with, but it doesn't seem feasible.
I hope we keep 9 but trade 38 and one of our 3rds to move up into the late first.
A Petterson and Oettinger first round would be fantastic.

Just really prepared for the worst. A bad trade down (again) in order to take an inferior prospect, a bad trade for a marginal, old vet, a first round goalie to replace the guy the front office is currently determined to run out of town as quickly as possible...
Bleh. Hopefully it's all pleasant, and I'm surprised tomorrow morning.

The chart I saw was something like 9+25 for 13+15, for equal value, so Detroit would have to throw in a player(s) and/or prospect(s) with a total value of roughly 25 overall to balance the sheet.
I doubt a deal works out that both teams like, but anything is possible.

They have spent much more time this year on scouting as opposed to other years so I think we're going to take someone good and I like.
Maybe I'm crazy.
I can never rally around an individual on draft day. When I read through scouting reports they all sound great. Im just buckling up and trusting the scouting department.
Whether they go with a D or Forward we need to get someone who can play in the top half of the line up. Drafting is a guessing game but we really can't afford a miss on our first top 10 pick since the 80s.

I'll be 0% mad or disappointed if we take Nick Suzuki at 9. I'm probably in the minoroty with that though.

Ideally, I'd be happy with one of Glass, Necas, or Pettersson. I also would not mind if they decide to take a shot at someone like Liljegren. But knowing Kenny, we will either trade down or take someone off board.

I know Holland is seeking another mid to late 1st rounder probably to draft Oettinger if we're to deal Mrazek. Our #38 pick plus one of our 3rd rounders should net us a late 1st rounder to take Jake Oettinger i would be happy if we could land both Pettersson and Oettinger in the 1st round.

Same here, But realistically i doubt we've much of a chance on Glass unless we trade up. And that's highly unlikely.

I would like to see a trade up for a second 1st round pick. Id just rather see it used on a dman or center/winger.
Ideally, you could then sign that Cal Petersen out of Notre Dame
There goes my hope of Mrazek going to ARI tonight at the draft. They just picked up Raanta and Stepan.
Gotta think that Rangers will be taking a forward with the 7th overall pick too. They got back DeAngelo in the trade and this frees up money for them to sign Shattenkirk.

I think Buffalo might be moving on from Robin Lehner, Here's hoping that Mrazek heads either to Buffalo or Philly.

You dirty dog!
Or Vancouver, then sign Miller to a cheap deal to be a back up. Make Coreau earn it.
Looks like the 9th pick would still carry some value if 7th snagged Stepan and Raanta...if there was interest in trading from our FO.
