I'm feeling forward! Though they feel like another team that could lean Emery or Kiviharju... both seem to make sense.

The Donny V

Gabe will this chat be live tomorrow at some point?

Gabriel Foley

9:23

We are not planning to keep it live, though if Josh and I get a good hold of the day, we could kick it into gear. Keep an eye out - otherwise, you can engage with me on Twitter/X @NHLFoley.

What's your read on potential Marino to Van trade? Likelihood? Return?

Gabriel Foley

9:24

It definitely seems significantly more likely this evening - now that the team is set for a quick breakup with Zadorov. But I wonder if Vancouver has the assets... maybe picks?

Gbear

9:24

Hmmm, a bit of a suprise there.

I'd guess wrong anyway.

Gabriel Foley

9:24

I love it!!!

9:26

I am among Gridin's biggest truthers. He's grown a ton this year, adding a ton of pace and creativity in playing the puck off the boards. He's shifty and sees lanes well, though he's also still very young in his decision making. We were saying he was a Day Two steal earlier in this chat, so I guess he's a Day One "alright"?

Zakis

9:26

So much for my Day 2 guy being a Day 2 guy *flips hat*

Gabriel Foley

9:26

I think this could pan out well for CGY!

Boz

9:26

O’Reilly ?

Gabriel Foley

9:26

Would love to see O'Reilly go!

Though Emil Hemming and Ryder Ritchie are my faves for Dallas!

The Donny V

9:27

Ryder Ritchie

Why don’t players like playing in cbus ??

Gabriel Foley

9:27

As a resident of Illinois, permit me to say that if you go that far East, you may as well live in gorgeous Pennsylvania! Or even better, Michigan!

Gbear

9:28

Dallas always nails it. It'll be someone we don't suspect.

Why don't guys like playing in Gary Indiana?

The Donny V

9:28

Gary is a great place to play baseball

Gabriel Foley

9:28

My father in law grew up playing baseball in Gary! And, uh... he does NOT live there anymore!

Boz

9:28

Michigan 👍

Gabriel Foley

9:29

Where in MI you going?

The Donny V

9:30

Lol insert sarcasm there, was a great place at one time to play

Gabriel Foley

9:30

Ah there it is, Emil Hemming! He reminds me so much of Dustin Brown when he's on his game - though he's mighty inconsistent. Could Dallas be getting the brute to back Stankoven and Bourque here?

Gbear

9:30

Very Stars type player.

Gabriel Foley

9:31

I'll be floating between Kalamazoo and South Bend for the 4th!

Ron Duguay

9:31

What are the Blue Shirts doing here? Defenseman?

Gabriel Foley

9:32

EJ Emery feels like such a Rangers pick! My money's there!

The Donny V

9:32

Sorta reminds me of a larger version of Joakim Kemmell

Gabriel Foley

9:32

I like that, a heftier Kemmell - put still a strong spot-shooter with good puck protection. Kemmell sacrifices size for pace.

UncleMike1526

9:32

I played baseball on an All Star team l in Gary and you're completely wrong. The old Chicago joke is Kiss me where it smells. A: Gary Indiana?

Zakis

9:32

Dallas player development is so good

Gabriel Foley

9:33

Yup - this is a great stylistic pick, if nothing else. This is the right style to add to their pool!

Gbear

9:33

Emery definately seems like a Rangers pick.

The Donny V

9:34

With their pipeline I could see them going forward here though, I could see them going with cheryneyshov

UncleMike1526

9:34

Mr. Irrelevant round 1 coming up soon!
