Craig Button is a former GM and a scout I have a high regard for. He was on WGR talking about prospects. He is not as high on Chychrun as others are. The links below include his rankings and his WGR appearance. When discussing defensemen on WGR he has some very interesting thoughts. He's very high on Sergavhev.

 

The two defensemen that Button is high on is Sergachev and Juolevi.

Well it's officially the off-season! Now it starts to get interesting. The draft really has me intrigued, I am excited about attending it. Especially with the expansion draft looming, it adds more to the thought process when it comes to trades. A draft pick is protected from the expansion draft, so do you try to trade Ennis or Girgensons for more picks knowing they most likely wouldn't be protected? Should be good, never a dull moment with GMTM!

Reinhart already plays wing, and the idea to move Eichel to 3rd line is silly. Stamkos has said that he wants to play center, it's just not a perfect fit here. It would be the most exciting offseason move for sure.

 

What's silly is the idea that a team needs to have a "1st", "2nd", or "3rd" line.

 

How about we worry about having a top-9 that consists of guys that can produce offense, plus a 4th line that can grind when needed?

I could see it happening, but I think it's more likely that they'll move a guy like McCabe plus picks to get a top defenseman to pair with Risto.

I would be surprised if GMTM moves McCabe. He looked really good in the World's and is developing nicely. Pysyk seems to be the one they are not as high on, though I think he is a sound and underrated player.

And on that note, it's officially time for the "Sabres and NHL 2016-2017" thread.
