No we don't. We have a window to get these guys signed and at best until the trade deadline to recoup assets. The longer this drags out the lesser return we'll likely see. This team and its fans learn nothing from past mistakes. This cannot continue to drag out because the return will continue to get worse. Get Huberdeau and Weegar signed ASAP.

A mid-grade prospect. A 3rd rounder from 2019. Let's not blow this kid out of proportion. We might have a third line player if this guy develops. Not highly rated. Didn't even make the Panthers' top 10 prospects.

It's nice having another player with potential in the system, but he's not a highly rated prospect. The 1st is at minimum three drafts in the future, possibly four, and is top 10 protected. That means that player is probably 8-10 years away from playing in the NHL. When looking at the current situation of the hockey club, nothing has changed. We still have two UFAs that need contracts or were lose them for nothing.,
