All these goalies drafted include 7 by this regime since 2022 to go along with Dobes drafted in 2020.

Five of them will be NCAA : Croteau, Cournoyer, Miller (25-26) and Radkov + Vecvanags (26-27).

KHL: Volokhin

AHL/NHL: Dobes and Fowler

I say draft at least one every year. Keep the pipeline flowing

 

[wiseguy1]

It's definitely a goaltender fetish this management team has. They need some help.

Like drafting a QB every year

HUGO has Weaponized our cap space for asset, which have been translated to actual NHL players or legit prospects.

Monahan 1st #2 —> Key piece to drafting Hage
Monahan 1st #1 —> Highest rated asset of the Dobson acquisition cost
Petry Pens 41 —> Key piece for Zharovsky
Petry/ Desmith/ Perry Det picks —> All used for Hayden P.

 

[CH1]

Fortuitous timing too because cap space post Covid was at a premium.

Now you’d be lucky to get a 2nd rounder to absorb Monahan

Bottom line you need to know when to pull the trigger

Collecting assets need not go away for the organization. Just in different strategies needed with the rising cap.

Toronto better not get anything good out of this whole bs extortion/hostage/blackmail crap because they’re crying their player is leaving for nothing and they’re going to be worse

Good luck with proving tampering...

every team tampers

These signings occur soon on July 1 ,the idea nobody talks is foolish

 

[MON4NHLTOR4MLB]

It’ll be complete bullshit if they get anything for Marner, especially if it’s only the rumoured 4 year deal! Total bs uf that happens

Sign and trades happens more now

For RFAs, not UFAs.

I think Tkacthuk was a UFA flipped to Florida

 

[Habspatrol]

I don't have a problem with sign and trades. It sucks to lose a player for nothing. If you can get a little something for them, it seems fair to me.
