I would, and yet I wouldn’t.
If Tij isn’t there at nine, one of Lindstrom, Dickinson, Catton Or Parekh will be.
I don’t see Ottawa passing on a top-pairing OHL D.
Seattle probably saw Catton more than any other prospect - he’s got allegedly a higher offensive ceiling, played centre all year - they probably take him.
Utah, maybe - but I think there’s too many other American/Russian tantalizing prospects for them to reach for Tij.
The real wild card is probably someone behind us wanting to leapfrog us for Iginla, and I might do a trade to prevent that.
The jersey number on all the sweaters this year is 24.
Iggy’s first number in the NHL was 24.
Conroy’s last number in the NHL was 24.
It’s all aligning.
And I do selfishly really want this.
