I'm not sure what you mean.

They need 40 contract spots to fill the NHL and AHL roster out of 50 allowed.

They have 30 signed with 20 open contract spots.

They have plenty of contract space to have signed him. It wasn't the issue.

I get that prospect pool rankings frequently mention top end prospects. First liners, top pair D.

Now....Team A has sucked, drafted top 5 2 years in a row....top end prospects.

But the rest of their draft picks sucked..... nothing there , maybe a few 4th liners.

Team B is a good team, nobody ranked as high end prospects....

But they excel at finding bottom 6 Fs, 5-6 D.

And 80 percent of their picks are projected to make NHL.

So who has the higher ranked prospect pool?

Team A for sure. Those bottom six and bottom pairing guys are a dime a dozen in free agency and cheap to aquire through trade.

Sure. But the voodoo is when the prospect rankers don’t highly rank a 19 year old kid drafted in the second round who made the team out of camp, or a second round defenseman that you’ve shit on for not being able to skate playing top 4 minutes in the playoffs his rookie year, then graduate them….the teams prospect pool continually gets rated low. Despite finding Poitras, Lohrei, Swayman, Beecher, Brazeau, etc

I watched the podcast. I've never heard divver say much positive about lysell. i believe you've seen him a lot. what are your thoughts on how his game progressed this year and chances of playing at the NHL level at some point?

the b's obviously need to hit on this kid and get his high end speed and skill on the roster.

Easily the most talented in Boston's prospect pool
Made solid strides with his play away from the puck
Made solid strides with D zone play
Also made progress in turning his boyish body into something more preferable
Injury history is starting to become a concern
It takes hard work to get through to him
"Independent contractor" term is a bit unfair as he's been better since Mougenel shived him in the press
I think it's best for all parties to have a clean brake

Zero value lysel everyone. I wonder how true that is?

I don't think he has zero value for sure. He is still at the age that someone would take a chance on him, there is always a different GM who things they can fix. Just look at PLD and the number of teams who have tried, of course PLD is several levels about Lysel.

I think they could get a 2nd from someone if they wanted to move on this year

Lysell has done nothing but get better and develop as expected yet people think his value is only a second? Besides Wyatt Johnston no 2021 picks from #18-30 have any NHL points yet, and no players besides Johnston have more than 9 points from picks 13-47. Lysell is also tied for first with Rosen in AHL points from the entire draft class!

Wonder if Ottawa would flip Tyler Boucher for him? Both underachieving first rounders that need a change of scenery and Boucher bring needed grit to Boston's prospect pool
