I would actually go for thier 2029.. that could be a top 3 pick again.Cousin Strawberry wrote: ↑Tue Jun 09, 2026 1:22 pmJarry and their 2028 1st unprotected!

Not at that price point.
If he makes it to the trade deadline without issue then there will be gamblers willing to throw in on his potential but not until then Id say
Who really thinks he can hold it together?
In fact, I would LOVE to see RJ have that long view for gathering 1st round picks. no team wants to give up this or next years 1st and look bad in the draft lottery..
so we trade farther into the future for unprotected picks.
[edit] - I would like to add, I am ok not trading Demko and rolling with 3 goalies into the year. I would prefer this to giving away Tolopilo like we did Silvos
