1st and 3rd for Granlund and Ceci.
Meh on that for Dallas imo. Granlund needs to be in the top 6 C and 1st PP to be effective. Not necessarily a bad thing. But on Dallas he's behind Hintz + Duchene and with Marchment's eventual return + Stankoven's upside, it seems like an odd way to spend a 1st. Ceci isn't good. They should've used the 1st to shore up their defense with Heiskanen out.

why are we never in on this kind of seller's market? sad.

To be fair it's usually littered with junk

Just a percentage of other comparables over the years that have scored at similar rates in leagues as they progress that have become star players. Star players are .7 PPG or higher in the NHL. 10% is not very high.

Flames
Parekh ,Coronato ,Mews, Misa, Zary, Brzustewicz, Morin, Suniev, Basha, Gridin are all above 10% star potential. That's gonna change a lot.

Canucks
Lekkerimaki 15.8%, Willander and Mynio are 9.5 and 9.7%. D generally don't look good.

Nothing is guaranteed in prospects and the numbers will change constantly but it gives a good baseline of how a player projects. Past the numbers it becomes their type of games and development.

Anything ranking Henry Mews as a bigger chance of being an impact NHL player than Tom Willander is probably a very bad system.

About to watch JT’s first game for the Rangers.

Let’s see how he does.

 

[Bgav]

Hope JT rips it up

Well when we should’ve sold we had mother f***ing Benning and then when we were selling, there wasn’t much to sell also because of mother f***ing Benning

Miller vs Zadorov and neither in a Canucks jersey. We are truly living in the darkest timeline

It could be worse. We could have Lindholm

 

[DimitriL07]

Ahha jt shot out of a cannon to start

It could be worse. We could have Lindholm

Seeing as how this team will be desperate for a top 6 center they're probably going to give up valuable assets for a similar bad contract.

From what Sat was saying, It sounds like they're targeting a player in their mid 20s to fit the age range of our core, so not similar to Lindholm or his contract at all.

 

[Hodgy]

Miller is 100% going to light it up, and his cap hit is going to be good to great value with the cap hit going up. Wasn’t going to work here I think, but too bad.

Yeah I'm sure that's what they're targeting, but best of luck to them getting that

Teams aren't keen on giving up *that* for picks/prospects.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

I am really pretty happy we did not get Lindgren he is really bad and dumb and Tocchet would have played him a ton.

Ya I know, really. Like half the league is targeting that. Sounds like an intentional leak from management as damage control. “We are trying! Don’t worry!”

 

[Peen]

And he scores.

 

[Bobby9]

JT!!!!

 

[Zanon]

JT MILLER

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

And Miller scores.
