I highly doubt we trade our pick. I'm also quite convinced that Max gets traded.
But I wouldn't be surprised if we trade at least one of our 2nd for some help on defense. I just hope we keep at least 3 of those 2nd round picks.
yee
happens every year...ppl try to play that the number 1 pick isnt the number 1 pick
i mean some people started wondering about mcdavid and eichel
lolcats
Forsberg at 1 was also a thing... That one was rightIt's one of the great mysteries I've ever seen. Not that people wondered if Eichel could be > than McDavid, but that not one person is even questioning if someone could be better than Dahlin. You know, it's funny, but if you look at pre-draft rankings, anybody who goes off script is deemed a lone wolf and an attention whore. I remember in 2015 when HockeyProspects had ranked Kyle Connor 5th or 6th on their lists when everyone unanimously had him around 13 or so. They were laughed at by people who said they put him there as a way to garnish attention. Three years later, with hindsight being what it is, if you had to re-draft 2015, he probably isn't the 5th best prospect available, but he's a lot closer to 5 than he was to 13 and a lot better than the 17th rank the Jets stole him at.
For the record, I was one of the rare people who had Seguin above Hall in their draft years. For whatever that's worth.

Hell, that's still arguable. Hall is awesome.
Yeah that's pretty much still a toss up.
Seguin being a center is a plus for any Hab fan
???
Am I missing something?
No, it isn't. Seguin's been the better player throughout his career and while it isn't a large gap, I don't think it's much of a debate either. Better player in a more demanding position (Center always > winger), more consistent, significantly better goal scorer, less injury prone. The only case Hall might have is a better start to his career and the best single season of either player, but outside of that...

Question is .......do you see TS carrying Jersey on his back to the playoffs like Hall did this year ?
I like them both but cant see TS doing what Hall did this year in a reverse role .
Hall had no Radu or Benn and nearly doubled NS in points .
He was dominant and should win MVP
Sure, but the majority of people had Hall as their #1 pick. Not many had Seguin.
Seguin being healthy for most of his career and being a center gave him an edge. However when healthy Hall has been more productive while always playing on shitty teams. This season, Hall was the better of the two.
Seguin has been more steady season to season though while Hall had very productive season and some so so. But playing on bottom feeders the Oilers and Devils is an handicap for Hall, compared to playing on the Bruins and Stars.
Still, playing center gives an edge to Seguin, but it's not that clear cut.
