Still plenty of room in cap space to sign free agents. Who wants to go to Seattle though? Not I. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohh to be a fly on the wall in those meetings. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cberkas Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 If Seattle trades away Dunn then they should have just took Tarasenko and flipped him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have to assume many trades will happen especially with how much cap space they have like you said 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farce poobah Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Seems like they favored some familiar Hakstol recruiting traits: * Building from the defense out ... Their D corps is pretty darn good. Giordano, Larsson ... even Soucy who was easy to hate when at UMD. All very solid. * Two way forwards. * Character guys, who were Captains (1 at the NHL level) and others in Juniors or college. * Late bloomers, because you can get those guys for an affordable price. I liked a lot of those picks ... perhaps the non-selection of Stecher was a way to avoid the appearance of favoring ex-UND players (which was a criticism at Philly). Dunn and Gourde were picks that I like among the scheme of guys that haven't had a chance to play a starring role. The draft on Friday - Saturday will fill in the blanks. They may get that #1 or #2 center in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted July 22, 2021 Author Share Posted July 22, 2021 Well, they went 15F/12D/3G. Looks like they believe the "load up on" commodity is D. Should be interesting to see what they do over the next 72 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think they should have taken Kaapo from Minnesota. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cberkas Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Pitlick traded to the Flames for a 4th round pick. I feel the Seattle is just going to to tank for two years then fire Francis, I would have fired Francis after that absolutely garbage expansion draft.

cberkas Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Jaden Schwartz signs with Seattle 5.5x5 wish UND would have got him in college. Wonder if he’ll wear his sisters number like I did with the Blues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cberkas Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Seattle traded back Vanecek to the Capitals for a 2nd round pick. Probably could have got more for him. Still think Seattle should have taken Kahkonen since he's waver exempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
