button's got him at the 5 spot. i saw that highlight clip of him last week...nice hands, good skater. do you think he'd be available at 6 still or a shoe-in for top 5?
flyers need to draft some forwards - he's got a dman at #6. i know the flyers always say they'll draft by BPA regardless of position or need. not sure i think that's the way to go this year. - hammarby31
He's solid within the top-10 right now, inching up. 5's about the highest I've seen him... I'm guessing there's a good chance he'd be available at 6.
They might just end up w/ a dman from 5-10 via BPA (Kylington, Werenski). I wouldn't mind it, since Sanheim's still the only guy they have who really has more than slim chance at turning into a top-pair defender. I'd much rather solve that problem via the draft, than pay out the nose in a trade/UFA. |

i don't know...i guess i'm really high on morin. it wouldn't be the worst thing to have another top end dman prospect, but i'd like to find a forward first.
i agree. this draft has to land some gold. i don't see hextall overspending via UFA, and pure hockey trades are just becoming more and more rare...ugh. |

Problem is, save for the Oilers, all the teams currently drafting ahead of them all desperately need help at F as well. |

Haha yeah... Flyers have that tendency to go off the board, too.
Richard Matvichuk's the next highest-ranked prospect @6? Boom, Peter Forsberg. |

sure. it sounds simple in theory
but once your top guys are identified and paid, you still need to try and fill in around them. and that can get tricky. - stayinthefnnet
Yes, that is the very nature of the salary cap, and what it's designed to do.

I think writing off Morin as a potential top pair defender at this point in time is incredibly premature.
