Explain. That's not what the numbers are showing right now.

I feel like it's a forgone conclusion that management is going to go after a 2C with experience this summer. Unless Dach has a miraculous turn around then I doubt they have faith anyone currently in the system can fill the 2C spot next season, and I'd expect there's going to be some real pressure on management's jobs if we don't see significant improvement next season.
Depending how Malkin finishes out the season, I could see him being a realistic target. I'd like to think Pittsburg isn't stupid enough to think they can be competitive next year, and probably head into their rebuild this trade deadline or off season. He'll have one year left on his deal so he'd help buy time for Hage/our 1st pick this year, he'd add some much needed veteran presence at center and I honestly think having a Russian vet to help Demidov transition to North America would be such a simple and smart move.

Demidov is a HAB
It would be nice, not sure we could pay the premium that Pittsburgh might want for him. If their asking price is a 1st then it makes no sense from our end.

Glad we didn't get Jiricek. Seems to have some attitude for an unaccomplished player and I'd bet on David Savard over Jiricek in a footrace. He's soooo overrated because of his draft pedigree.
Good trade by Waddell.

If that's the same chart where you could get 1st overall for trading 9th overall and a few other later picks that chart is terrible
This is not accurate.
They gave the 2025 MIN 1st a value of 13OA because that's what they got last draft.
That pick will likely be around 25OA.

Primeau needs to go to Laval and call up Dobes.
Primeau not an NHL goalie.

We don't really have a NHL defense core either. Dobes might get the same amount of troubles.

We know Primeau can’t do it. Why not give Dobes a try?
Defence hasn’t been great but a half decent goalie would keep his team in the game at least. Primeau sporting a .821 SV% just isn’t tenable.
which is why they should be swapping Primeau for Dobes and making a trade for a RD and a C at the same time.
Swap the Gs
Trade Barron + Picks for a decent C
Acquire a defensive RD from the surplus of assets
=
stabilize the team without accelerating too fast and they can trade Savard later if needed when the TDL comes
Im dissapointed we couldnt land Jiricek.. we certainly had the assets. Basically we could have gotten him with: Engstrom + Cgy 1st + 3rd, 4th, 5th.. is that really so hard to let go?
