Why do people think Theodore is better than Manson? Manson is really good statistically and they should honestly just select him unless they are getting a haul of picks back.

Probably the assumption that Theodore hasn't peaked yet, I'd think. I thought Theodore looked particularly good in the playoffs. I don't think Manson has either, but Theodore probably has a higher ceiling. Theodore was a beast in the WHL and the World Juniors, also. Good numbers in the AHL, the kid's gonna be a star.

Also do all these deals mean George has EIGHT first rounders this year? Even with a thin draft I have to assume you'll get 2-3 quality players out of the deal.

I wonder if the Jets would consider trading Trouba for Theodore plus (maybe one of the firsts or Raanta or something).

If you have 8 first round picks there are going to be a bunch of teams looking to get back into the first round. Even in a bad year. It would be shocking if Vegas picks more than 2 or 3 times in the first.

Eric Haula has been signed by the Knights, so it sounds like he's been traded there in exchange for not selecting Dumba, Scandella or Staal. Alex Tuch and a pick goes along with Haula.

Haula isn't anything special but Tuch is supposed to be pretty decent, right?

The (conditional) draft pick is actually heading to Minnesota, which really makes this choice seem weird.
