Lou trades Pelech/Pulock and our 25 1st to move up and select hometown Hagens. Lets go Lou

Why would a rebuilding club want an over 30 year old, declining defenseman? Makes no sense.

If the team wants to move up for Hagens, you're probably looking at giving up that Colorado first round pick from the Nelson trade.

What pick should we use to draft a goalie? Is this a good draft for goalies?

Always a good idea to throw 3rd to 5th round picks on goalies, particularly on ones from the KHL.

Pin the thread! Pin the thread! Pin the thread!!

Latest bleacher report mock has us taking Jake O'Brien at 10th by the way. Center for Brantford

And he’s playing against Cal Ritchie in this round of OHL playoffs. O’Brien had 3 assists in game 1

Agreed, more likely Lou would have to trade the 1st to move Pelech and Pulock contracts

In all seriousness after seeing how well using every pick on a defenseman worked out for the franchise (trades included) at this point maybe take all forwards. One of them has gotta be an actual first liner.

So Reinhart got us Barzal, Pokka got us Leddy and Pelech turned out pretty good

Ravensbergen seems to be the consensus top goalie available, after that I'm in the dark.

This season proves that while we had goalies in the system, every one of them struggled mightily.

We need goaltending again.

TBF the top two of them are overseas and both had good years
