AwfulHomesick 148 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I punched my bed when I saw the Devils logo on that card. I'm still riding some kind of high. I wouldn't want to be Ray and co, this decision could be franchise-altering. A lot of Devils fans are torn between Patrick being riddled with injury but still being considered the #1 OA prospect, despite that.

My opinion is this: Patrick looks like a good prospect and a poor mans Toews. The injury worries me. I also don't think any of this years players could step into a roster and be an asset right now. Matthews, Eichel, Laine and McDavid all had that "wow" factor. Niko looks good but I also worry about his size in the NHL. His fight and determination look unmatched in this draft.

Patrick, because I think he could be a good player with some proper coaching and developing. Niko I think would need more of the right fit to actually succeed.

Devise 4,475 Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 Some of the core needs to go. Ovechkin, Carlson, and MoJo should be traded. But still pieces there to build around absolutely keep Backstrom, Kuzy, Burakovsky. Holt's is fine too. Just 3-4 big core pieces need to move. A big shake up needs to be made in regards to team identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id' say someone big might be left for Vegas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have any ideas as to where you would want to move him/for what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
