I’ve come around on this. People want us to start adding FAs and climbing out of the rebuild but we dont have this yet. Bedard is now a question mark at that position rather than guaranteed.
We need a 1C before we start to add.
2025 NHL DRAFT Thread

We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

Bedard is not a question mark
Do I think he’s capable of playing center? Of course.
But I’m in the group that thinks he can be even better at wing. And I’m not the only one. I guess we’ll see.
I'm all for continually adding to the center depth as I don't think you can have enough and you need to be strong down the middle, especially if Bedard and Nazar end up being better fits on the wing. If they went something like Misa, Jack Nesbitt, and Eric Nilson with the 1st 3 picks, I wouldn't complain one bit.
As I’ve said before, I hope we only win this lottery if we finish as the worst. Misa at #2 would still be great, and having 26 be lucky and bringing in McKenna would be even better.
If we do somehow end up #1 and Schaefer is that much better than Misa, I think we really consider trading Korchinski for some young forward players.
