Having extra picks always helps though, especially when rebuilding. Connor Brown may not be an example of that wisdom holding true, but it remains true nonetheless. The more lottery tickets, the better chances of hitting a winner. Avs need more picks, yet never move to load up on them.Smitty-48 wrote:Connor Brown is one who just fell in our lap, had one off year, dropped like a stone to 156th, the next year, led the OHL in scoring; 45G-83A-128P

Yeah, like I said, I think it's the owners, they won't let go and just let creative destruction happen.StCapps wrote:Having extra picks always helps though, especially when rebuilding.

Fucking Kroenke, go back to meddling with other Denver area teams you own, and keep your hands off my hockey team. Not that you'll listen to me, but god I wish he would.Smitty-48 wrote:Yeah, like I said, I think it's the owners, they won't let go and just let creative destruction happen.StCapps wrote:Having extra picks always helps though, especially when rebuilding.

Leaf fans owe it all to Tim Leiweke, he's the one who hired Shanahan and authorized the Shanaplan, now Lieweke is gone, but his legacy lives on, in Auston Matthews.

Leiweke told Leafs fans, the media and ownership what was wrong with the organization, and they ran him out of town for it. Leiweke knew what was up, a lot of credit given to others is actually his.Smitty-48 wrote:Leaf fans owe it all to Tim Leiweke, he's the one who hired Shanahan and authorized the Shanaplan, now Lieweke is gone, but his legacy lives on, in Auston Matthews.

Not me tho, bit of a travelling huckster that Leiweke, but he did right by the Leafs, and now Shanahan is a 6ix God; bless you, Tim Leiweke.StCapps wrote:Leiweke told Leafs fans, the media and ownership what was wrong with the organization, and they ran him out of town for it.

What do you think it would cost the Avs to pry Thomas Chabot off of the Sens? Chabot and Makar would make one hell of a future top D pairing on the PP.

Fucking Phaneuf. I'm going to pretend it's all his fault, even though I wouldn't trade Chabot even if they still had Methot, in their position. I just feel like blaming Dion though.Smitty-48 wrote:Chabot is untouchable, 'specially with Methot gone now.StCapps wrote:What do you think it would cost the Avs to pry Thomas Chabot off of the Sens?

Young skating elite puck moving D is the hottest commodity in the league, word is that NJ was even considering trading down and taking Makar instead of Hischer.
