anyone saying well be this good or that good in this amount of years is just full of shit, the players hughes has brought in arent working at all whether play or luck none of the players traded for have made much of a difference to the outlook of our team on the ice, we can say this player and that player are gonna be this and that but we dont know how all the players will play together once assembled, we dont know if st louis is the right coach or the management is good at talent evaluation both pro and draft, so imo this franshise is going to be in a bad spot for a while until you see consistent great play by the group for an extended amount of time and we know where near that

I'm sure he will be fine when Demidov and Hutson are putting butts in seats and they continue to build toward the playoffs like every rebuilding team has done ever.

I think that Hughes will add to the roster in the summer. We need help at center because Suzuki can only have two linemates. Demidov will be the second coming if he can produce alongside Jake Evans or Dach as his center.

If he does add help down the middle and on defense the team will be poised to push for a playoff spot next year.

Theyve consistently mentioned the upcoming summer as their most important date. I definitely think they'll make a move if it's available, they've got the picks and prospects.

no thanks from the Canucks yeah. EP has a slow start but he would most likely be our best forward instantly.

EP >> Caufield
Gally is a cap dump
Xhekaj is a #6 defenseman
CGY 1st adds value but again, not a top 10 pick most likely

I get it but I think CC is trending up and we don't know what Xhekaj will be yet and there is the pick. Plus you know The Canucks would want more so id pass....

Hence the reason the rebuild isn't going on for another 3 years. This team has decent players and prospects already and add to that the bulk of picks in this years draft and there is no need to let this drag on for 3-4 more years. Eventually some of the ton of picks and prospects we have will need to be turned into trade currency so why wait? Just because other teams/fanbases have endured 40 days and 40 nights of a rebuild, it doesn't mean we have to.

Gorton came from NY and their rebuild was a short one and yeah it didn't hurt having Panarin and Trouba and Fox wanting to be there but we might have similar luck. You mentioned Demidov and Hutson so we do have current talent and others on the way so a tweak here or there and we are in playoff contention.

And while were on it, just because we are a young team, it's no excuse for a team to be playing unstructured listless hockey. I believe it was you a few years back that made a great analogy about young players going to the AHL and learning to be good there and applying that to the NHL when they eventually made it. Forgive me for not remembering it correctly but at the time it gave me a smile to read it. What I am getting at is even though the current roster is inexperienced it isn't a reason for the coaching staff to make things worse with concepts they can't understand. Just keep it simple and allow them to grow.

I seen a few posts back from last night and this morning.

I’m starting to think it’d be a good idea a 1v1 swap Dach for Zegras.

I’m just think with Dach’s injury history. He’s getting a little of the rust off but I feel like he is just a boards down low player who doesn’t really use his size to his advantage as much as he should.

The team is needs offense and I feel better creativity up front.

I think this is a win of a deal.

Especially with Laine coming back creating a lot of fire power up front.

The rate it’s going to honestly don’t know if Dach makes to the end of his contract currently either dealt or hits market. Just my opinion. I’d like to take the chance on Zegras same term and see if we get offense or see where it goes after two years similar to Dach’s situation.

I don't see him that way, never have. He's more of a Phil Kessell/Mike Hoffman type of player. Ask yourself, what else does he contribute besides scoring goals? I am not diminishing his abilities in saying that but rather saying it like it is. He is a complimentary player but a good one.

I find it difficult why Anaheim would do this?
