We don't know full details of
Canucks not getting Ethan Keppen signed,
true he didn't reach his draft year production in D+1,
but he wasn't (re)selected today,
barring dirty laundry, he might be a good candidate for a Prospect Camp invite and maybe an ELC

People always want to draft fallers as if there's no real reason they fell other than all the GMs somehow accidentally smudging out their names on the list with a coffee spill.
 
This whole weekend has a COMPLETELY different feel if Drury just holds out for a 1st rather than a 2nd in the Buch deal.

Have no idea what the rush was to get that done. Not like it impacted this year's draft or another deal followed right on its heels or anything.

I don’t think an offer for a first was coming. Buffalo got what will likely be a very late protected first next year for a better player with a better track record and way better reputation in Reinhart and they didn’t get a good prospect or depth nhl player along with it.

He isnt going to go out in public and say "I really really really want Jack Eichel" or "I'm willing to go up to 12M AAV on Mika"

I dont know what people expect
Yes. He provided public relationally correct answers. And I made a sarcastic quip.
 
Good luck having a superstar who’s beyond disgruntled and has wanted out for a long time attend training camp. Oh yeah, and good luck keeping the peace after the whole will he or won’t he have surgery disaster.

Eichel is leaving...whether he comes here or not he's gone before the season that situation is not gonna work.
 
And who has a NMC + $7M SB kicking in 7/1/22. Bold strategy Cotton.
Not to mention the damage it’ll do in the locker room if he’s still there. It’ll be a circus with the media and cause a huge distraction. Not something you want your young developing players to be a part of. There’s a reason why this organization has been a joke for a decade and here’s yet another example of it.
