Can't see Chychryn stepping straight into the league...  Sure hope we don't end up picking 5th.  Would be very happy with Matt Tkachuk though...

I wouldn't give Drouin top line - Connor will start on third line, like Ehlers did.

Paying Buff big $$ for third pairing...?  

By end of season...

Ehlers-Scheif-Wheeler

Perrault-Little-Armia

Harkins-Connor-Stafford

Lemieux-Copp-Thorbs

Which is why I said in no real order...

Harkins has regressed, what makes you think he will make the team?

Harkins can be a great setup guy with Connor - but he's probably replaced by Dano now

Edited February 26, 201610 yr by Floyd

If he makes the team I see him more as a checking LWer or center.

I think Connor is here next year.

I don't get the argument that he is one bad injury from not having an NHL career, thus needing to finish his degree. Guess what, that injury can still happen in the NCAA too. Without signing a contract he gets $0. Just because he plays in the NHL doesn't mean he can't still finish his degree. Andrew Copp had two semesters left but hasn't given up on his degree.

 

Connor is LW 

 

Ehlers Connor Perreault Lemieux 

Wheeler Armia Dano thorburn 

That's LW and RW

I don't think you can 'told ya so' yourself... something weird about that

Hey man i was singing his praises minutes after the trade!

Armia always had talent. He just needed time. 5 points in last 4 games now. He's showing he's legit. 

If people think we didn't win the kane trade.... Armia alone might be better one day. 

And we still have Lemieux and Roslovic coming....

Yup and you know they will flip stafford eventually maybe sooner rather than later and wouldn't be surprised if myers is moved also. 

Doubt they flip Stafford, not anytime soon anyway.

Pavelec and Enstrom are probably next to go.

Stafford is gone next trade deadline at the latest. He's basically not really needed anymore even. If someone wants him this trade deadline.... I'm moving him. Cuz youth movement I'd coming. Stafford isn't part of our future 

Yup youth movement is coming but not worth putting all our eggs in one basket at this point.

Exactly. I like how Staf has played since arriving and really helped us get into the playoffs last year but he can be replaced by Armia for half of what he is getting. IF Ehlers plays left wing with Sheif and Wheeler (and why the hell did Maurice ever break up that line?), I would rather see Armia and Dano getting the ice ti me, not Staf.

What would Staf get us? A first? Boston? Jersey? Avs?

Probably a 2nd. 

I'd trade him for a 2nd.

Used to like Stafford but he's a floater.

At this point, sure, trade him, and clear his salary for the youth.

As the guys on the Big Show were discussing, Im sure the Jets home crowd will welcome Dano with a hearty Marco Dano chant (to the tune of Marco Polo). 

Speaking of Big Show, how have they never used the Big Show's WWE theme?  "Welllll, its the Big Shoooooooowwwww".  Perfect.

These guys are crazy!!!  They list Dano as LW and Connor as a Centre...!!!

Published today but if they are in the NHL how these guys called prospects?

The Hawks were trying Dano at LW and Connor did play center a while back. I agree though, some of it is pretty off. Dano does become one of our best prospects. #2 between Connor and Morrissey if Ehlers and Helle and Armia aren't considered prospects.
