McCann and 15th for Patches. Montreal can pick at center at 15. problem solved.

Montreal loses a 35 goal player and passes on a 35 goal prospect to take a B and C center

I like Dobson as a reliable Dman but if Wahlstrom is there at 7 I take him in a heartbeat
- VANTEL

Me too, I don't see either Dobson or Bouchard as any thing more than what you could get in the second round so I'd take the forward.

Boeser, OJ and #7

To Buffalo for

Dahlin

Wahlstrom is still my 3rd choice behind boqvist and Dobson. Simply because D are never going to look as good at this age as a forward.

Van has Boeser, Lind, Dahlen, Gadjovich, Baertschi, Goldy, Lockwood, Jasek, Virtanen for wingers.

Compared to OJ, Brisebois, Chatfield.

No

Boeser and #7 to bustfullo for number 1?

I wasn't?

Montreal needs centres and defenseman, I like that they won the third pick and it's a winger year

Sure seemed like it

I look at Dahlin as being McDavid level good.

What would you trade for McDavid? On an ELC?
I'd sell the farm.

Facts smacks

- VANTEL

Do you want to re-think this? Where is Montreal passing on a 35 goal prospect? At no point there did they trade the 3oa pick.

Right now Van has Edler and Tanev for a few years to hold the fort . I doubt Tanev misses 40 games this year . They are bringing in OJ this year.

I too feel there is not much of a difference between Miller McIssac and Dobson . I don't pass on a 35 goal scorer for a team that starves scoring.

Me too, I don't see either Dobson or Bouchard as any thing more than what you could get in the second round so I'd take the forward.

Then why would they be top 10 picks? Very very few D put up points the way those two did this year, that have their size.

Then why would NHL scouts and analysts not group them all together?

That's too big of a gamble, that's also a Marc Bergevin like bad deal for the Canucks. You're killing depth for a Karlsson type player (maybe). You're trading away three years of building for one great player. It would take too long to recover from that.

I like Dobson, don't get me wrong, I just happen to think he's a Marco Scandella type dman, which again is great, but I don't see him as a future Norris winner.

Sounds like I'm trashing him, I'm not, he's a great young player. I'm just saying if Wahlstrom is there I'd take him over Dodson.

If Wahlstrom is gone and Dobson and Boqvist are still on the board I'd have a tough time choosing at #7.

Agree with everything

I will steal a phrase I heard yesterday

Boqvist Hughes : High risk , High reward, higher ceiling .

Dobson : Steady reliable.

Neither have played in the NHL. So TBD.

Clague fell way too far if you ask me. I had him in the late 1st.

He has been their best player for years

That’s not saying much.
