We currently have the #5 draft pick after Florida, Colorado, Calgary, and Carolina. Who do you draft. I'm guessing the top four players to go are Jones, MacKinnon, Drouin, and Barkov.
I'm torn. Love both Nurse and Zadorov, both exactly what our blueline needs, but... you get one of these centers, let him work his way into the lineup, and have a VL replacement. Not a bad spot to be in.
Why replace VL, he still plays great (20th best center in the league in PPG) and we have enoguh guys, that could step up into his position as long as he is injured (Killorn, Johnson and maybe with some line juggeling Pyatt/Thompson). And we might really whine that he is injured every season, but many guys are (Sid, Malkin, Kesler,....) and yet their teams don't give up on them.
EE tweeted that if Tampa gets top 5 pick it's BPA regardless of position.
I thought we were drafting Colonel Klinkhammer?
Florida already has the #1 pick all but locked up. We've gotta deal with the scraps that follow
Bah. Tampa Bay Trio it is, I guess.
