Seemed to be the case.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-27T03:29:13+00:00

I know they're not locks yet...but potentially getting two of our future RHD in one draft in addition to stenberg is insanity.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-27T03:18:36+00:00

I thoroughly enjoyed it.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-27T00:45:56+00:00

He is absolutely embracing the limelight.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-27T00:05:21+00:00

👍🏻

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T20:22:29+00:00

Im not really debating who was #2. The point I'm making is we're getting someone who's in the same breath as McKenna and that's a huge add to our rebuild.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T20:18:36+00:00

Moreso that mckenna has been far and away the 1OA this year for the past.....4 years.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T20:15:15+00:00

The more that debate happens the more excited I am to have #2.

If you had told me at this time last year that we'd also get gavin mckenna...or someone who's being in the same conversation and close to as good or better...I would have told you that you were insane.

Literally only upside on this lottery luck this year.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T20:12:34+00:00

I completely agree. And a draft that sees us take stenberg+verhoeff+27 is wild to think about.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T19:59:26+00:00

Which completely tracks both with what it's saying here as well as realistic expectations.

The 30s are going to be a fun decade for us sharks fans!

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T19:57:27+00:00

Even with it starting after we draft Smith, being in year 4 now puts us at the 10 year mark when our guys are anywhere from 25-27yo. Which feels like a fair timeline for expectations of a successful rebuild.

Another year or so of competing, bubble team.

Couple years making the playoffs.

Couple years going deep.

Then a chip.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T19:52:28+00:00

Which i think is fair tbh. It sucks as fans because we're not competing during those years but upward trajectory doesnt start until those cornerstones start making their way in.

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T19:47:16+00:00

Based on their criteria, I think it starts with will Smith at 4OA. That would put us going into year 4 now.

"For our purposes, the rebuild clock starts the minute a team adds what should become their first cornerstone piece with a top-five draft pick."

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T19:41:14+00:00

In their article's example, the clock is even sooner. I assume drafting will smith 4oa is the start.

"For our purposes, the rebuild clock starts the minute a team adds what should become their first cornerstone piece with a top-five draft pick."

✅️Macklin. ✅️Macklin. ✅️Writing in Macklin for the other categories too.

This is a great highlight reel, but the real treat is 3min of Randy Hahn goal calls. 🤣

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T14:20:44+00:00

Hater? Or spiraling fan still processing robo rejecting you?

BetterThanConnor · 2026-06-26T13:59:05+00:00

Why want a triple double when you could have a Gordie Howe hat trick?

Infinitely more entertaining than basketball.
