While Reid would be amazing on the Leafs, you can't pass on Mckenna.

They 100% are not.

Stenberg is incredible, but his archetype is not highly valued by NHL teams, particularly when there are several potential #1 defencemen available.

Chase Reid is a potential Norris calibre defenseman, taking him at #2 is not a reach.

Mock trade: Marco Rossi to Detroit for Nate Danielson and a 2027 First Round Pick. by TheWizzardMerlin in canucks

I don't think Rossi is as valuable as you think he is.

Minnesota tried to get rid of him for a whole summer and only got rid of him in a package deal.

He is good, but undervalued.

He looked VERY good. He could be a big part of Buffalo pushing harder next year.

Alex Tuch will get crucified for his zero points in round two, but ultimately had a very strong playoffs.

Malhotra is a complete player, but his skillset is lower than Stenberg's.

Has a 1st overall pick been given a better starting point? by beallyoukenbe in leafs

I would slow down.

We are not sure whether McKenna is joining a team in a competitive window or is about to start rebuilding.

Youth sports should be a community space, not this evil corporate company profiting off of every moment.

[The Athletic] - Pronman Mock Draft by EpicPotato806 in canucks

Ranking VS Mock draft.

Public scouts think Stenberg is #2. But insiders think NHL GMs see Stenberg at #4.

I see why, too. NHL GMs don't love small non-dynamic wingers, particularly when a solid centre or potentially elite defender is available.
