Matthew Tkachuck... he's our meal ticket!

We need defense.

If we somehow won the lottery, would you trade down? We don't really need mathews.

Just for fun thinking

2016 draft is considered to have very good depth.. Definetly better than 2014.. Maybe not quite on par with 2015 but close.. This is good news for Leafs fans.. And likely Sabres fans as well

Says the guy trolling another teams forum!

[coastal]

Who do ya move to a wing?ill have the problems of too many high talent guys who can play center but are forced because of depth to play wing... every single day.

I don't wanna Dallas Stars our issues. I'd like to have a well rounded team.

keep in mind also this season there will be three lottery draws...

~2016 NHL Draft LotteryBeginning in 2016, the Draft Lottery will be utilized to assign the top three drafting slots in the NHL Draft, an expansion over previous years when the Draft Lottery was used to determine the winner of the first overall selection only.
Three draws will be held: the 1st Lottery draw will determine the Club selecting first overall, the 2nd Lottery draw will determine the Club selecting second overall and the 3rd Lottery draw will determine the club selecting third overall.

As a result of this change, the team earning the fewest points during the regular season will no longer be guaranteed, at worst, the second overall pick. That club could fall as low as fourth overall.

The 11 Clubs not selected in the Draft Lottery will be assigned NHL Draft selections 4 through 14, in inverse order of regular-season points.

i see the ****eaters are out talking about last year because of an injury. keep at it. maybe we can start a fool's gold thread and talk about other things you have gotten wrong

[mightysimi]

Unfortunately his style of play will always put him at risk of injury.

[JATMtheJATM]

Well yeah, kane plays all out, every shift. Those kinds of guys are prone to injury. And I'm totally fine with that. Guys who leave it all on the ice are wonderful

Yeah like I have maintained, I like his game. But paying someone 6M to not play is tough to take sometimes.

[JATMtheJATM]

Oh for sure. I hope he comes back soon.

[mightysimi]

How has he looked? like you hoped?

[JATMtheJATM]

Numbers aren't there, but when he's out on the ice, he isn't invisible. He works his ass off. Plays hard. Skates like the wind. Hits. Heck of a player.

[Meathead]

i like his game but id like to see a little less patty kaleta in him and more sid the snake. be tough to play against but not so much an agitator that you draw a target on your chest. leave that final distinction nto the lessor players who really have no choice

[ICRockets]

The hitting is what I didn't expect out of him. I didn't realize when we got him that he was such an aggressive 2-way player.

If things don't work out with Bylsma, I gotta say...I think we have a roster that would really work well with Lindy Ruff's style. (I'm pretty sure things are gonna work out with Bylsma)

That's what I saw too with Winnipeg. Just wish he hit the net more and put up a few more numbers. There is no doubt he tries hard though.

[JATMtheJATM]

According to bleacher report, kane is ahead of schedule

[Dr. Lecter]

He could be back this week.

There's no need to rush things. We aren't going to the finals this year.
