Whats the farthest we can drop in the draft with a last place finish with the new rules?
I am pretty sure that the last place team is guaranteed a top 3 pick.

do you consider Phil Kessel to have an edge? What about Spezza? He lead the Sens in scoring when we went to the cup in 07. I guess it all comes down to a personal definition.
To be fair, Spezza, Heatley and Alfie all had 22 points that playoff run. Kessel's edege to me is he played with a killer instinct, dude almost scored at will and deserve one of Crosby's Conn Smythe's. I think with Kuznetsov was he was quietly a #1C for the Caps and put up enough points to be considered that 'guy' for the Caps.

Not sure how anyone can defend Dorion at this point
We're going to slowly turn to Buffalo.
Just abysmal. Change needs to happen ASAP. I have no idea how you see this team finish strong last season and think that bringing in MDZ is the solution without touching the C position at all.
What a joke he is.
Here comes Ice-tray to tell me that the financial situation of the team is a reality and my mental health need not be affected by stuff Dorion cant control.
Ya, like our backup making 6.25 million and MDZ making 2 million to be healthy scratch. Abysmal.
I’m all for replacing Dorion but who can you get for 500-750K. McGuire would assume the role if Dorion was fired. Dorion had to move Dadonov to bring in Holden, MDZ and Sanford . This team is screwed until more money is allocated.We're going to slowly turn to Buffalo.

Yep. We've been bargain bin shopping for coaches since Murray was promoted to GM.I’m all for replacing Dorion but who can you get for 500-750K. McGuire would assume the role if Dorion was fired.

It's groundhog day. Lessons can be learned year after year, but repeated over and over again.Posting here because I can’t post in the most relevant thread. Hasn’t the Melnyk thread been closed before to poor effect? The topic just spreads to other threads. I’m aware I’m contributing to the problem here, but… we’re making the same mistakes. This is preventable.
He wouldn’t have had to include the 2022 1RD to acquire a veteran 2C. He could have put a package together that makes sense for the team long term.I think PD’s done a good job. He’s resisted sacrificing any of our top picks to acquire “Dvorak” type solutions.
Imagine he had trade 2022 1RD or Greig + a 2ND for a stop gap 2C like Henrique.
we are talent poor, riddled with injuries but we aren’t tied down financially with out limited resources going forward.

Most of these guys like Henrique can be flipped at the deadline for a late 1RD pick or better so I’d say that’s the start of the ask.
You do realize Henrique was waved last year right.
Waved. You're telling me a bit of retention results into our best forward prospect + a 2nd round pick? What.
Yes - I’m also aware he’s wasn’t waived this year and isn’t available for free (or a 2ND).
Murray White MDZ etc all those plugs signed to bad contractI’m all for replacing Dorion but who can you get for 500-750K. McGuire would assume the role if Dorion was fired. Dorion had to move Dadonov to bring in Holden, MDZ and Sanford . This team is screwed until more money is allocated.
Ofc not. There's no way we getting Henrique this year. That ship sailed in the off-season. We are stuck with what we have now.
Dorion had opportunity to bounce when we were rumoured to him and his value was still half of what it is now but my guy is dumb dumb.
