I agree. Nilsson is a big guy at 6'6 230lbs? but he sure doesn't play like that.

Markstrom is his own worst enemy but I like his compete level and the passion he shows.

A good synopsis... 👍👍

Craig Button said Dahlen is one of the better forward prospects at handling the puck at high speeds.

He should teach virtanen.

Give JV a decent C before wondering what he can be or become.
Its too early to pass judgement on his development.
He has yet to have a steady role let alone the chance to play in a line-up that doesn’t stop changing up so frequently since he has been here.

Everybody is trying to be Pronman.

He's at 13 in my rankings.

I have Ty Smith 20th or later. That said with so few C’s to be had he could go earlier. D is always in demand & he has solid skills so you could be right.

It is 5 p.m. The #FlaPanthers and forward Adam Mascherin have officially parted ways. He will re-enter the draft.
- VANTEL

Interesting. Curious to see if that helps or hurts him.

Someone is going to have to go.....

Our forwards are getting too similar...

Sven Baertschi
Markus Granlund
Brendan Gaunce

Gone I think are Archibald, Dowd and add Leipsic and possibly Mott.

Has Jokinen announced his retirement yet?

I would also not be shocked to see Vanek back for another 1 year term.
- Beatle_john

yes on too many similar forwards, although i'm not sure about your groupings.
I see Sven, Granlund as similar sorta tweeners (2nd/3rd liners, can skate, score and play some PK).

Leipsic and Goldy as slightly shorter, speedy, skill guys that should play 2nd line or nowhere

Gaunce, Dowd and Motte as 4th liner, defensive specialists and Archie brings the grit in theory.

i'd love to see Granlund traded, Dowd dropped, Motte in the minors and one of Goldy/Leipsic on the big club and one in the AHL.
I used to want Archie on the club due to his toughness (replacing Dorsett), but i'm not so interested anymore, i'd rather try another 4th liner in our never ending pursuit of a 4th liner with speed, grit and heart.

Rasmus Sandin said prospects got many questions on Fortnite. He went out of his way to say he usually wins and doesn’t hide in the bushes. #NHLCombine

Such a stupid question



Even when people were suggesting it was OJ , I cared for 10 seconds

During their behind closed door meeting. They talked about a player who played wing against older players but Center vs his own age group. Did they see him if when he matured if he was going to play center. I think they were also talking about his skating not having that separation speed.

Pretty sure Kotkaniemi got hyped a little bit too much. I personally think he would be a better winger then Center in the NHL.

The more I watch him and read about him, the more I like him

Jonny Tychonick. 2nd pick if he is there.

The more I see and follow these guys I sure hope Benning won't do something stupid and trade the pick

Hes not on my list. 😋

Would be pretty happy with him in the 2nd round

Solid dman prospect

Im not sure he makes it into the 2nd round. Hes a late 1st for me. I just dont like his game. SSM had a heck of a team for him to feed off of.
