Reported here is Trevor Timmins classes players in a Most Projected Value order not Best Player order. Most projected value means the position played and the play style matters. It's interesting, that's basically what I've been arguing for for a long time.

And when I hear him use the term "asset value," I think they also look at it as possible trade chips down the road. That's just what comes to my mind when I hear him say that.

 

[Sterling Archer]

If we get Borgstrom or Vilardi, we drag Zadina. If we get a scoring winger or LD, we take Kotkaniemi. That’s what I think anyways.

The first time I ever heard him say ''asset value'' was last year, and I have to say that I was relieved to hear him say it.

I've been arguing with a bunch of geniuses who think you can trade goalies and wingers for whatever you want just so long as they're ''bpa'' for what seems like an eternity.

I think with 6 years at the helm and the inability to get a C. They realize that drafting one is important and when they make their list.. if X meets their upside and X meets their upside who would be harder to acquire?

Yes, I translated Lemay's translation to projected, might be not entirely accurate.

[Deluded Puck]

We can argue the Attitude Era already started, but tomorrow night, we add our missing piece. Question is, who will it be? Tkachuk, McLeod or Merkley?

Bergevin 20+ years behind the times as usual (sad face)

Definitely excited, its funny how that works, we deserve something to look forward to after going thru a season of hell as fans particularly

had we had a great season, tomorrow doesnt mean as much, but because we absolutely suffered thru crap all year, tomorrow means everything

We have vested interests in the draft, the trade market AND free agency

its christmas baby, lets see if we like our new toys however..

Hopefully it's not one of those Christmas' where you waited all year for that GI Joe motorized tank and instead got a new school bag.

If that was truly his secret sauce, I don’t think he would say it to everyone. He did say he is a good poker player when it comes to strategy.

He might be saying that in order to get another team to bite on a trade offer.

 

[sandviper]

Berggren and Alexeyev with our 2nds PLEASE

Berggren I am confident will be there for one of our seconds. Whether we take him is another matter. AlexAlex I am afraid will be gone in the first.

Why in the name of **** would he trade the 3rd for O'Reilly? If that is Buffalo's ask then just say thank you and see you at the draft. Take Kotkaniemi at #3 and trade up for Dellandrea if you have to. O'Reilly is a poor man's #1, a really good #2 or Pittsburgh's #3. Overpaying and taking on the contract when you can replace his production at a percentage of cost is the recipe of a panicked GM.

I fear what Bergevin has in store for us

Does anyone know if it's possible to listen to the draft on radio outside of Montreal? In 2012, I listened it on 98.5 FM but it seems that they are airing an Alouettes game tonight. And 91.9 sports, you can't listen outside a 50 km radius of Montreal. I'll be driving from Sherbrooke to Quebec city at the time of the draft, anyone knows if there is anyway I can listen to it? Otherwise, I'll just put 91.9 sports live radio on my phone, but would rather listen from the car radio, if possible. Thanks for your help!

 

[Tabarouette]

I have no optimism left in me.

i'm like a dried prune

 

[Tuggy]

I don't believe anything that comes out of that idiot's mouth.

Yup, that's how I look at it.

[The Great Weal]

Oh man it has finally come. So f***ing pumped.

 

[Laurentide]

We should be so lucky. With Habs fans it's more like you come downstairs on Xmas morning, see nothing under the tree and when you ask Papa Bergevin what gives his eyes bug out and he yells "Wait. That was TODAY?"

 

[Habaneros]

Oh man it has finally come. So ****ing pumped.

expecting keyboard riots here tonight,...lol

I dont know if you have access to internet ( cellphone data). You can stream the live audio feed of 91.9.
