Speculation: The ''Future''

[Valic]

If we get McDavid Taylor Hall will be traded for a defender and complimentary peices. Probably one of Eberle and Yakupov as well.

If we lose the lottery (80% chance of that happening), we get Eichel at 2nd. But, he's an American and going to college. He isn't coming here, especially if this management regime is still in place. Hanifin is American and in the NCAA aswell.

If we don't win the lottery, it might be wise to trade the pick, unless interviews with Eichel/Hanifin gives one confidence in drafting either.

Eichel has said he doesn't care where he goes.

Lying like that won't benefit him and not going to a team that drafts you is incredibly rare. Getting Lindros'd is unlikely.

Fans seriously need to give it a rest already.


All of McDavid/Eichel/Hanifin will report to their drafted teams.

Absolutely. Every year one of the worst teams in the league gets the top player in the draft. Besides Lindros how many have not gone to the team that drafted them?

Hall - RNH - Eberle
Yakupov - Draisaitl - Perron
Glencross - Sobotka - Upshall
Downie - Lapierre - Dorsett

Gunnarsson - Shattenkirk
Klefbom - Shultz
Nurse - Marincin

Niemi
Enroth

Draft McEichel then trade for 2 very good defencemen.
Need new goalies and good checkers.

You are definitely underestimating the value of McDavid and Eichel.

 

[Uchiha]

i think it's guaranteed we don't get mcdavid no matter where we finish. Lottery is behind closed doors, they won't allow the oilers to get a 4th #1 pick in 6 years. Rules still allow us to get eichel though if we manage to be dead last.

Man, that would be the dream to win the lottery to draft McDavid...oh wait.

I think Yak will get a manageable contract. Ebs might be the guy to go if we run into cap issues.

Ba hahaha,
