Jeebus Chrysler. That is luck beyond luck. I’d even settle to get 7 or 8. Perfetti is pretty damn good too. So is Drysdale.
LA gets Byfield Ottawa Stutzle Detroit Drysdale
The rest of Raymond, Rossi, Perfetti, Holtz and Lundell will be the top 9. I’d like to be in on that!!!

I think they'll take a forward. plus I won't be shocked if the Kings take Drysdale second, they badly need a top d-man.

I'll say:
1. Laff 2. Byfield 3. Stutzle 4. Perfetti 5. Drysdale for the top five.

It was vs Erie, guess who he was watching? He said that Holland basically effed up and didn’t take Hughes a couple years back, instead he went for Zadina which they may end up trading. They need a top dman too. Sieder is ok, but I doubt he’s as good as Drysdale!!!

Sieder is ok, but I doubt he’s as good as Drysdale!!! that's a fair point. they have a bunch of young guys. Hronek and Cholowski both played a bunch this year and Seider is gonna be playing in Detroit next year, I'm sure. a pair of top d like he and Drysdale could be a solid foundation for a long time, though. both are righties, also (Seider and Drysdale). one thing is for sure, the draft will be very interesting. the only picks that will be obvious will be 1st and 3rd, imo, and that is if Stutzle is still there at 3 (guaranteed Ottawa takes him if he is).

I think they get he and Drysdale and make everyone look dumb for ragging on how bad there draft lotto night was. they are set up to get 2 really good players still. I would be cool with Holtz at 9. I think we pick there (calling the Habs winning the lotto right now) and take Sanderson, Askarov, or whichever of Holtz/Lundell (or maybe Quinn) falls to 9th. good call earlier on Ottawa's picks, btw!

I was listening to TSN a few days ago. They said that even the Sens may take Drysdale and still get a top forward a few picks later. They’re hot for Perfetti too. So if they got Drysdale and Perfetti they’d be ecstatic!!!

I think that would also be amazing for Ottawa. If they can land Drysdale later on, that’d be great for them. If for some odd reason the Hawks could move up and land Drysdale, I’d have Boqvist out super quick for real offensive help. Not many 17 year olds make team Canada, and NO 17 year old dman makes team Canada. And NO 17 year old has been Canada’s #1 dman. This kid just has it. He even jumped over Byram on that team!!!

I would be totally fine with moving Boqvist and our first rounder for Drysdale either at 3 or 4 is Stevie is looking to stretch out the rebuild in the D. or maybe even 5 if he dropped that far, which I think he might.

You mentioned Jack Quinn. He’s basically a year older than the rest. But a 52 goal season is impressive. Seth Jarvis is just like Perfetti. I think Jarvis may be the sleeper in the draft. Watch some YouTube video on him, the kid is a thief. He steals a lot of pucks and turns them into goals. Downside is he’s a smaller fella. I still feel this is gonna be a hell of a draft!!!

I wonder who Potash thinks is gonna get scratched and which black aces draw in? Does anyone else see a LOT of black aces drawing in for the PO round? Can a team make a tank job THAT obvious?

Can a team make a tank job THAT obvious? i was under the impression he was being facetious with that post but hard to tell of course. and black aces refer to all teams so idk if he was talking about all qualifiers or just chicago.

The NHL announced 15 players have tested positive for COVID-19 since Phase 2 activities began on June 8.
In total, the NHL has administered over 1,450 tests since Phase 2 began. That phase included players reporting to home facilities for voluntary, small group training. The NHL says over 250 players reported for Phase 2.
In addition to those 15 players, an additional 11 players have tested positive for COVID-19. Those positive results came outside of the Phase 2 protocol.www.nbcsports.com/chicago/blackhawks/15-nhl-players-test-positive-covid-19-league-update

Gotta say it’s not looking good for a return. I think it’s dead in the water. I give em credit for trying something, but at some point they gotta just call it.
I don’t think the season starts till December or January. The league needs fans in the seats, without fans they will go broke. So unless the virus has its ass kicked in or a vaccine is in place, it may not even be worth it to have a 20/21 season. It’s cheaper to shut it down than pay people for a bit. Hockey is in a tough spot for sure. Players better get ready for a massive cut back. No way the league can afford 81.5 million on the high end. Gonna be tough times a head I fear!!!

My daughter just turned 5 the other day. She loves listening to you good friend Tom while we swim every day. If you really give some of the older albums a good listen like “Long after dark” and “Hard Promises”. They’re great albums from front to back. I know he has such an amazing greatest hits, but albums are really cool. Long after dark is my favourite by far. Just a solid album. I’m happy my daughter can enjoy great music with me..... until she gets older!!!
