A bit early to say if Kreider will fetch a first or not. If he is having a great year, maybe? Far from certain.
“They’re just prospects”, but you are also mad that Drury is trading picks which are just that, for proven players? Our D was a disaster last year. He addressed that. The new 2nd pair + hopefully a full year of Fox should result in a big improvement.
Did Drury show you his hand in the Doro trade? I didn’t see 1 person linking him to the NYR. And I thought that was a home run trade especially when you look at some other trades (like McTavish).
I thought the Trocheck trade was fair value, and from what I have read it seems we made out better by taking Greentree over the actual 1st we may have been able to get from LA if we didnt get him. He’s been incredible in the OHL
Overall, I thought Drury did a decent job this offseason and I am willing to give this team a chance before writing them off as non playoff contenders. I’ve also heard rumors that Drury is targeting another forward. Wonder who it could be
