I have seen some here mention don't trade anyone in 'The Big 4'.  I assume that it includes Matthews, Nylander and Marner but who it number 4?

When I used the term Rielly was the 4th.
 
Seems like some pretty serious underestimating of Andreas Johnson here, in terms of ceiling he might be our 5th best prospect and he's already had spells where he dominated in the pro's.

I think there's a lot of waiting to see what he can do in North America. He's definitely a promising/intriguing prospect - but, at the same time, I'm not sure there's a ton of separation between the guys ranked 5th to 12th or so in terms of what their likely ceiling.
 
I still value Kadri ahead of Nylander, until Nylander shows otherwise.

Babcock is moving him to the wing as an NHL'er next season.

It's probably just me, but I think its MORE important to have a highly skilled, two way physical center, than another scoring winger who's play without the puck is highly questioned by Babcock.

Nylander also disappointed me in the playoffs.
 
Ya Nylander floated for most of the playoffs and got serious for only one game.  I think he has a lot of competition around him. As Babcock said, Matthews will make Nylander better.

I'm with you on this one. I just have a really good feeling about him.

I think it should be "Jam" level.  Then we rank them in terms of Jams, like Strawberry or Raspberry.  But first we need to rank the Jams.

1. Raspberry
2. Strawberry
3. Blueberry
4. Black Current
5. Apricot

What's the difference between jam and jelly?

When making Jelly you strain the fruit so that you're making it with, more or less, juice. Jam is just made with crushed fruit.

Apricot seems like a choice out of left field based on your currant list. No mixed berry?

I see what you did there.

Alright, I see how we're going to be. Fine.

And Mixed Berry seems like cheating.

Mixed berry is admittedly an abomination. Delicious, nonetheless.

I recently discovered the joy of lingonberry.

I figured we were limiting ourselves to commonly available commercial jams.

IKEA carries it if you have one near by. They're a touch sour for more common jam usage (toast), but really complements a savoury dish nicely.

Savoury jams/jellies is a whole other list. Also, we'd have to figure out where Chutneys fit. This might not be a one-day project.
