Daniel Day Lewis and Gary Oldman are actors. Willis and Costner are movie stars - there's a difference.

Totally agree with you. Especially about Oldman. Most underrated actor of all time.

Willis never tried to win Oscars though. He always knew his place.

Costner thought he was Orson effing Welles.

I'm ready to go to war with this team as it is currently constructed. If we upgrade on Strome @ 2C, great..if not lets see what Gallant brings the team.

I'd prefer to be real stingy with our prospects. We want to move out these bigger contracts in a few years, well we need to make sure we have cheaper players to backfill the spots. Jones, 1st round pick, Strome. Buch + for a 2C, sure. Otherwise, keep the ship in the direction it is going.
I am glad you are but most aren't and I am sure management isn't either. People's jobs are dependent on this team performing well. It s is pretty easy for you to say you are ready to go to war with this team sitting on a recliner watching games from home.You have no stake in this.
Not sure how you forgot the shortcomings this team had last year and why you think all of a sudden things would be different. We are off to a decent start with Goodrow but there is still some work to do. Other than that move what have we really done to address the needs? I am sure the coaching will be better but like in any sport you need the players if you want to make a difference. Last I saw the coach doesn't skate during the game.
 
The only team that would entertain trading their top 10 first for Buchnevich is LA. But we would probably be looking for a center on the verge. If it's to flip to Buffalo, I don't think 9 and 15 are enough for them to get back in the mix for Eklund.
 
Just a note, teams are not in a hurry to make moves. The draft is coming, free agency, a normal year there is a trade window basically around 7 July and 14 July or something like that. Teams knowing where they are at after everything, and they get a few days to finalize what has been discussed for a while. And they want to get it out of the way before a little vaccation, camp prep etc.

Some trades could come now. But they may just as well come like 4-11 August…

If OTT really has interest In Strome, the 10OA could be in play
 
Aha, you are going to switch Artemi Panarin to the right wing! Btw, have you ordered your Stanley Cup rings yet?
