2023 Draft and UFA Thread

Ekblad made of glass and Barkov not the same without Hubie. They also have the toughest schedule left apparently. They end up top 10 and we end up top 5 would be beautiful regardless of where the lottery falls. I have a tough time seeing Bettman allowing Bedard to go to a Canadian team
Barkov is not the same without Hubie?

They weren't on the same line.

Barkov is a stud and made Hubie better on the PP etc. You got that backwards. I would take Barkov as our #1 center any day of the week.

Ekblad is made of glass though.
 
Price Waterhouse Cooper really does oversee the lottery and they're not going to blow their reputation for anyone.
 
Barkov ate and ate and ate last night. Was a man among boys and he hadn't played in over a month.
 
A reputable firm didn't oversee the assassination. No the CIA is not a reputable firm.
 
If Bettman had any control over who gets #1... why isn't Matthews in Arizona? I mean really... that would have been his wet dream.

Why would he let the Oilers win 3 times? We all know that he does not favor Canadian teams.

The one time that a player landed in a place that Bettman likely preferred was Crosby going to Pittsburgh and likely saving the team from moving.

Out of all the lotteries... one going to the "right" team? That's some pretty bad "fixing." I mean, it seems like a better argument would be that someone is fixing the lottery to screw Bettman over. There's a lot more evidence of that.
