yes but disruptive in a team environment, I bet his teammates don't like him and it shows.
- Bettmanhatesus

True. He's still young so hopefully for Buffalo's sake he matures and is a decent teammate/leader

yes or even chykryn.
- Bettmanhatesus

Chychrun was the most NHL ready D in that draft I thought. I didn't think he would have the most upside though.

I'd just draft BPA still, obviously prefer a dman but I would not pass up on a better lefty for a righty.

OJ is far from a lock to be a top pairing dman so I don't like the idea of being limited to only drafting a RHD.

Can't comment on other teams players.

Bode Wilde reminds me of watching Zach Werenski.

In my limited viewings of both Dahlin and McIsaac, they remind me of a young Victor Hedman, a true#1 defenseman.
I am not as concerned as others about handedness as I am about a replacement for Edler as a minute munching all situations defenseman.

Know you are kidding about Wilde comparison. But you would like this kid he is big and hits too for an offensive D talent

Van needs both sides.

Agree. Will be happy if OJ can be a top 4 defenseman.

They are too busy hating Kane
- VANTEL

A couple of bad personalities on that team, I have been on teams like that and its not good.

I missed that. What a steal at 30. I had him top 15. Looks like his 2nd choice in paths to the NHL is working out pretty good... Rookie of the week 3 or 4 weeks now in the KHL. Good for the Preds. They impress at the draft most years.

Tolvanen was a top ten pick for me. When he was still available in the 20+ range, I was hoping JB would make a move to try to get him.

No need to fret over that if JB has a chance at Dahlin Canucks would take him.

Game day!

Edler and Virtanen are out, Pouliot & Burmistrov are in and Mike Smith starts after a rough night in net last night against Ottawa:

There are a few players that look good. Once we know where we are drafting and the year these guys are having then I can determine.

Lind was taken 33 and people have Levin I've seen at 73 and 64. I don't think Levin is too far off Lind's talent. So far Lind is looking like he should have been a late first round talent.

I thought the talent dropped off real quick at the end of the 2nd round last season.

There are players I haven't even looked at yet and I like guys all the way to the end of the 3rd round.

I think this draft probably has one more better round then last years.
- manvanfan

I think Lind should have gone in the early 20s.

I do like some of the latter picks in this upcoming draft but as a devils advocate once told me... say you believe otherwise and find reason. Last season i debated the opposite and nobody is calling me on it. I shalt night change beliefs just because of facts and i shall try to change yours, despite facts.
This is the last time i divulge my trade secrets until Vantel breaks his promise not to complain about the twins, Eriksson or management.

That's going to be oj. Minute eating 40 point lhd

Also, hoping that loui has career ending injury. Not trying too be mean or anything, but have never liked him.
