I've seen some mock drafts that have Wake Forest 1b Nick Kurtz falling out of the top 10. Would you take a flyer on a 1b only with that kind of power potential if he's there at 12? Given Tork's issues and perceived unwillingness to address them...I would
Seaver King...book it. Played at four positions (3rd, SS, 2B and CF) this season. AJ will love him.

The roster is capped at what they were this year...a boderline playoff team. Changes need to be made on the blueline and in goal and guys like Kasper, Mazur and Danielson who can play a 200ft game need to get a long look. Be great to add guys like Necas and/or Guentzel who are proven scorers
I would put a higher value on Edvinsson than Byram...but I'd also put a higher value on Necas over Middlestadt.,
But no...I wouldn't trade Edvinsson for Necas.
Necas is an RFA...Which might somewhat lessen his value. Also rumors that we're going to be in on Carolina UFA Guentzel. A trade for both ahead of FA would be interesting
Of course they'll listen to offers...it's not like Harris is going to plug his ears and yell "la la la" to avoid it.
There are times Benetti starts to get a little heavy on "look at me...I'm Bob Costas " style of humor...but on balance, he does well.
Cossa is a more like a year away..Augustine is more like two years away. We need an upgrade in goal, but can't see trading significant assets to get there
