is this kid legit? early looks are promising.
He was considered first round talent for some time last year, I'm not sure why he fell in the draft.

He is currently outproducing Prince Demidov. He is 11th scorer in the league with 12:23 playing time per game (ok he played 12 games while most of the others have played 9-10 games)

*Edit: and DeAngelo has 5 assists in 2 games!

He will be our Kucherov (drafted 58th) and same size. :)

I don't watch the games. But it's probably good moneypuck to trade 28 for 34 and 50. The difference between guys at 28 and 34 is like maybe a 1% better chance at getting an NHLer. You have much better odds at 34 and 50 of getting a good NHLer than just 28.

I get the philosophy of getting "your guy", but time has shown us that a lot of drafting is just having good luck. No one can strike consistently as it is such a crapshoot. The Hurricanes are fully in the mode of not trying to galaxy brain it and just throwing as many darts as possible.

It's very likely that all these 2nd and 3rds that we've hoarded over the past 5 years will enable the team to transition from our current window to a new one. As long as we have NHL talent coming over on the horizon, and as long as we keep cap flexibility, we seem poised to be relevant for a long time.

At least that's what I tell myself after losing Guentzel. :D (I too felt the sting when we lost Hamilton and we got by better in the long term.) Trocheck is the one we miss now with hindsight, of course.
