Well welcome back everyone and a happy 2024! I am glad to see the forum is back up - I have missed it!

The Pats are officially in a rebuilding cycle with the trades made this week. I have a couple of thoughts:

1) Was trading Howe off the table to start with - surely we could have got some prospects and draft picks?

2) What happened to Suzdalev -Somewhere I heard he only played in 13 games in the first half of the AHL season?

3) Do we have a first round draft pick in the main draft in 2024?
