I hope Jake Ottengier was watching Bobrovsky in the first Stanley Cup game. Maybe he will see how to block an across ice pass with his stick. I know several times the puck was passed from his left to his right within a foot of him and he let it go by. It was like he thought it would go to the boards in the corner but no there was a player there to put it in net. That very play is why Vegas won the 1st overtime game.
Was just reading up on Stiga this weekend. Loved this line from Daily Faceoff: "Scouts refer to Stiga as one of the draft’s top buzzsaws, someone who’s going to bring the effort every night and whose effort will never waver." The only thing that gives me pause, and this may be unfair, is I worry about having too many undersized forwards. Great stuff, per ususal, David. Thanks for the write-up!
Problem is, not many teams have two 2nd round picks and pick 29 may not be worth much to those that do. I guess it might, depending on who's available. Now if a team like Seattle offered #40 & #63, you absolutely take that phone call. I get where you're coming from. It really feels like we need more than 3 draft picks, but I don't want to pick much lower than 29.

Should the Stars trade back from the 1st in order to get 2 seconds ?
