@MikeBartner Yikes on Brady Martin when he was one of the best forwards at wjc this year? Too early for a yikes

@J_Swish24 No Fox, Seider, or Slavin is insane. 💀 I love the young guys, but putting Faber, Hutson, and Schaefer this high is bold—they still have years to prove they belong in the Top 10. Also, even as a Wild fan, Heiskanen at #10 is a crime. He’s Top 5 minimum.
English
@MikeBartner Especially Nashville. Top 5 prospect pool - no better time to turn that into a top 2-3 prospect pool. But who knows if they will commit to it
English
The activity/entertainment of this offseason will come to whether WPG, NSH and/or SEA can have a honest conversation about how far away they truly are.
If they’re smart, they’ll get great returns for older/expiring guys from desperate teams with cap space.

@PredsCards @JesseAbrams @GearshiftMike @NHLRumourReport Auston: “hey I want out”
Leafs: “you’re under contract and you’re the captain of the team give us some time to prove to you this will work we have two years”
Auston: “i don’t want to wait”
Leafs: “okay well the answer is no, see you in camp”
English
Nick Kypreos: Re Auston Matthews: Teams are paying close attention; Speculation in my inner circle has the Mammoth watching this situation, as they have a few of Matthews' close friends on their roster, including Clayton Keller - Sportsnet (5/12)
English
@PapiLeafs34 @JesseAbrams @GearshiftMike @NHLRumourReport I’m talking about if Matthews asks out. If he doesn’t, yes I agree with you that’s not enough
English
@PredsCards @JesseAbrams @GearshiftMike @NHLRumourReport Umm their leverage is he’s under contract with us for two more seasons so my answer to Utah would be “Come back with a better offer or find someone else to deal with.”
English
@PapiLeafs34 @JesseAbrams @GearshiftMike @NHLRumourReport Yes it is. Toronto is not gonna have aaaany leverage

@ForeverKasai @NHLRumourReport Mute the word pagnotta in your settings. I did that for seravalli
English
@NHLRumourReport Can I mute everything from pagnotta jfc
English
David Pagnotta: Re Sharks draft: I think they're looking at Chase Reid, I think they're gonna take a look at Keaton Verhoeff; Carson Carels and so on - Sekeres & Price (5/11)
English
@PredsCards @FriedgeHNIC Checks every box we need too. If he isn’t the guy then I might just not watch the Preds again lmao
English
We will see where this goes over the next day or so, but hearing momentum is moving in Ryan Johnson’s direction for Vancouver’s head of hockey operations.
Nothing is done until it’s done, but that’s the latest
English
@Tre092 @FriedgeHNIC How hard can it be for the best reporter in hockey? Ask if yorke is the guy 😭 he’s the only one that makes sense atp
English
@FriedgeHNIC Elliotte please for the love of God tell me Daren yorke is the next Preds gm
English
@Mike_Paradigm @AdamVingan Its not hiding from them, its respect from the predators. To not be celebrating the hiring of someone while he’s in the playoffs with another org.
English
@PredsCards @AdamVingan He serves as an AGM for the Canes but he’s also the GM for their AHL affiliate (Wolves) who are still playing in the Calder Cup playoffs as well.
If it is Yorke, the rest of the front office would already know so there wouldn’t need to be reason to hide from them.
English
@99_Wolves_17 @AdamVingan @Chicago_Wolves Maybe that’s it. Yorke seems like the only possible option for Nashville at this point
English
@FriedgeHNIC is Yorke likely for Nashville? Saw reports of Nashville’s guy being with a playoff team right now
English
@FriedgeHNIC confirm???
Cam Robinson@Hockey_Robinson
Despite some speculation that Ryan Johnson could interview in Nashville if VAN goes with Gold, league sources indicate the Predators already have their next GM lined up The delayed announcement is believed to be tied to the successful candidate currently being an AGM with a playoff team.
English
@AngryPredsFan I knew it had to be that! Only thing that made sense. Let’s get analytical!!!
English
Man Shane Doan should be getting a AGM or GM job somewhere ! It’s tick tock time everyone 🤝🤝 hi @SeattleKraken or @Canucks
English
@AlexDaugherty1 The only thing that makes sense to me is the possibility that someone they either really like or at least want to talk to is still playing. I agree with the sentiment, "If Fitzgerald was their guy, it would be done by now"
English
They will hire someone before the draft. Haslam initially gave June 30 as the final target date, but added it would be before that.
But the new GM would only minimally impact the scouting work going into the 26 draft anyway
Richard Zigler@rezigler
@AlexDaugherty1 Are we just not gonna hire a GM before the draft?

#Preds fans... who are you rooting for to win the Stanley Cup?
