If you know someone who has season tickets, they'll have the opportunity to get free tickets to this event.

can't drop if you make the playoffs as you're not in the lottery anymore.

Should be noted that a lot can change in a year.

For example, Nick Ebert was projected to be a top 5 pick in the 2012 draft in June 2011 and he ended up falling to the last overall pick (211th).

Then you have guys like Ryan Johansen and Pierre-Luc Dubois who weren't on anyone's radar the year prior to their respective drafts and end up going top 5.

This year, for example, Liljegren was a surefire top 3 pick in June 2016, but fell to the middle of the first round. Chychrun was similar last year.

McDavid going to get 13.25mil it seems.
Would you offer 9mil for draisaitl? Compensation is 2firsts a 2nd and a 3rd.
Having him as our 1c moves everyone down and lets us trade Sutter for more d. Probably makes us a team that is 10- 15 in draft order

nope he's not worth two firsts, yes it would help but those are at least two great players we would give up.

Oilers already said they would match any offers for Leon Draisaitl. Also what goes around comes around they can throw offer sheets to our future RFA's. It's a double edge sword.

Vancouver Canucks name Trent Cull head coach of Utica Comets | The Province

Quote:
Trent Cull is the new head coach of the Utica Comets, the American Hockey League affiliate of the Vancouver Canucks.

Cull, 43, replaces Travis Green, who was promoted to the top job in Vancouver in April.

Cull spent the last four seasons as an assistant coach with Syracuse Crunch, the Tampa Bay Lightning’s farm club. It was his second four-year stint with the Crunch. In between, he spent three seasons as head coach of the Sudbury Wolves of the Ontario Hockey League, compiling a 94-88-11-11 record.

“Trent is a passionate head coach with significant AHL experience,” said Vancouver Canucks general manager Jim Benning. “He understands the development path of a young player, including the challenges they face, and has been a part of many successful organizations. Trent is a teacher with a positive, energetic work ethic. We’re excited to welcome him and his family to our organization.”

The Georgetown, Ont. native played 11 seasons as a defenceman in the AHL and IHL with five different teams: St. John’s, Houston, Springfield, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Syracuse.

If McDavid signs at 13.25, a predatory offer sheet at 9.8 million would force Oilers to pay 23 million for 2 players, or lose Draisaitl for picks.
https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comm...y_offer_sheet/

Doubt the offersheet happens but I sure as hell hope it happens. It'd be almost 1/3 of their cap towards 2 players

with our luck in the lottery, i would seriously consider an offersheet for Draisaitl

it'll piss off traditionalists yadda yadda and there's a threat of Edmonton getting back but fuck it, sometimes you gotta bull through life and not look back

that and I'd love to see the Coilers in salary cap hell

I really like Draisaitl, but he's not worth anywhere close to $10M/year ... And giving up two 1st round picks, a 2nd, and a 3rd is insanity for a team in our situation.
