ParticipantGotta say… I kinda like the Cuylle, Trocheck, Sykora line.
Chmelar looks pretty good too, Ive said before he kinda reminds me of Julien Gauthier with his size and ability to use it to get to the net.

ParticipantExactly what I said about Kreids before the season. A move for the sake of making a move.
As for the unsuccessful tank, I feel good about the way Zib, Laffy, Gabe and Laba are playing. Id rather they grow and gain confidence than continue to wallow.
At the end the day, I try to remember that when we won the lottery for Laf, we won our last game of the season and changed for percentages, but still hit!!I would argue the tank has been going quite well since Miller returned to the lineup.

ParticipantAt the very least, if theres one thing theyre getting right, its tanking the rest of the season properly to ensure we get one of those top picks.

ParticipantRight now you think anyone would take JT Miller for Jack Nesbitt? They’d laugh us off the phone. What a disaster of a trade
There were 3 guys I really wanted if we were to find a way to get back into the first round. Nesbitt, Horcoff and Murtaugh. The biggest kick in the nuts is that at pick 11 Pens took Kindel, whos already looking like a legit NHL player, THEN proceeded to trade our pick to the Flyers of all teams who drafted Nesbitt. To put the cherry on top, used the picks they got from the Flyers to draft Horcoff. Murtaugh ended up getting drafted by the Flyers in the 2nd round. Like, wtf. Smh, fkn hell.

ParticipantOnce again, your post brings nothing to the table, you are useful as a Tj post. A good laugh and nothing more, you have no insight into anything, just want to break balls. As I remember correctly you were happy about the Miller trade and making him Captain. Im sure you took your blue pill and stroked your guitar over it. Keep staring at your posters on your wall. Typical douche bag.
Well, hes also like 100 years old, senility.

ParticipantYou don’t trade a top 5 pick in this years draft
1 and 2, probably not. After that, I think for the right offer picks can be moved. But Im also not saying full on trade them, I mean move back a couple picks. I really like the idea of drafting Malhotra or Lawrence. We have an extremely aging core of centers and nothing in the pipeline to develop behind them. If we were to end up with the 3rd pick, theres a couple of teams that have multiple picks in the 1st round. Lets say the Bruins are sitting at 5/6 (theres several teams with multiple picks in the 1st round), want to move up to draft Verhoeff, and want to trade pick #5/6 plus pick #24 and Lohrei, for example, its something to consider. Id be asking a kings ransom for a franchise RHD.
We can monetize a high pick quite massively. Especially in this draft.

ParticipantIs it the draft yet
Hold on, we still have like a dozen more games to lose to hopefully lock up a top 2 pick.
But Ill be honest, Im not against trading any pick, even a top 2 pick, if the return is significant.

ParticipantThis team has a sub-500 record since Miller returned to the Rangers. This team only got progressively worse after trading Goodrow, Kreider, Trouba and bringing in Miller. So I guess youre right, the issue isnt Miller… its Zib, Fox, LAF and Trocheck. Its their fault they havent adapted to Miller’s presence and leadership.
This team was first in the league 2 years ago, go figure. Milbury just had to think he was the smartest guy in the room. A retool then would have been different, no lets just burn it down. After hearing Fox’s comments a few weeks ago, I cant see him staying for the ride. If he splits, does Mika and Miller go too? Im not sure how this dumpster fire will play out.
Its hard to understand it. It feels like it was nuked from deep within the organization and anyone not believing in the plan was nixed.

ParticipantKeep losing baby. Top 3 pick is the way to go this year
if we finished 3rd, worst we can drop to is 4th, right? all non-playoff teams have a shot at 1st overall, but that’s it? i recall them changing the rules shortly after we won 1st OA after finishing like 12th, but not sure.
if im not mistaken, you can only move up 10 spots.
