Thread: Another draft prediction
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>It has nothing to do with underrating. It's the type of player required. Parekh is the exact opposite of that required type.

Besides, you're definitely overselling him (in what world is 175 pounds big for any Dman? Q Hughes???). He ain't the second best DMan in the class. I also have no idea how one could not see offense in Dickinson's game... is there a better goal threat creeping in from the point in this entire class? On that alone, he's a legit weapon.</div></div>

Not saying there is no offense in Dickinson, but likely looking at at 40 pt D, which is very good, but not as much as some others.
Weight is gainable, so by the time he’s 23, Parekh can be comfortably 185-190 while standing at 6”0, maybe even more if he has some growth left, decent frame. What he did this year should be enough to identify him has potential of 85 pts (Parekh that is). IMO, he should 100% go top 5.

I understand he could be not the ideal fit for STL though, just thought they would go for top end potential

Thread: Best case scenario
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>math731</b></div><div>Thing is Campbells negative value is even greater.</div></div>
Not true. Campbell's buyout this summer is a total of $10.5 million over 6 seasons:
2024-2025 = $1.1 million
2025-2026 = $2.3 million
2026-2027 = $2.6 million
2027-2028 = $1.5 million
2028-2029 = $1.5 million
2029-2030 = $1.5 million

In contrast, Anderson costs $16.5 million against the cap if he plays for 3 seasons, or $11,333,333 if he's bought out this July, or $13,666,668 if he plays next season and then is bought out in 2025.

Why should Edmonton <strong>pay</strong> two first-round draft picks to take on a greater burden? Campbell alone for Anderson and Savard would be a favorable deal for Montreal, because Anderson isn't going to add substantially to Edmonton's offense playing on their third line.
