Sounds like punishment. Would rather stay at work

Just heard a draft guy say if Kakko got 40 pts that would be very nice rookie year. I kinda hope for more. Just thought it was a good topic to discuss!

Patrick Laine's rookie year of 64 points would be better

I would ask to defer the 2 weeks if its a boy till he is 21, then you can take him out to all the good stripclubs.

Svechnikov has a rookie season of 20/17 for 37 total. Not terrible, there will be an adjustment period and probably a scoring drought like we saw Howden go through. I think 35-45 is a safe bet/good rookie season.

50 would be good, 60 would be great, 70 would be fantastic

The last two months will be key, if he can handle the full season. I imagine him starting off really well, then lulls here n there

But 20-17 would be a downer from me. Kinda like a Chytil this year. Flashes, but not consistent enough

Chytil just turned 19 at the start of last season. Most guys drafted where he was aren’t playing until this year or next. I think last year was a good first year for him.

hi guys -
As Buffalo's Mock GM in this upcoming Draft, I am looking to acquire another pick in the 10 - 15 range.
Anybody willing to move out?? What do you need?

Oooh a mock draft trade has occurred 😱

I agree with you here, I am very pleased with Chytil last season considering his age and that he was a 22nd pick

not going into all the details but TJ and I are in agreement where Los Angeles has moved from 22nd overall to 13th overall

Just wanted more of those flashes. Not to worried. If he develops into the 2C that would be enawmus

Depends on usage too, right?

Svechnikov only got to 37, but he spent the majority of the year on the 3rd line as well.

If they throw Kakko into the fire, I'd say 50+ isn't unreasonable.

- BINGO!

True. I’d expect Kakko to play with Zib a lot, to maximize both players. That’s first line

I'm confident in saying I speak for all Oilers fans when I say "Yes".

I liken Svech to Hall often and Hall was in range for ~50 as a rookie (prorated) and I think it's fair to put Kakko in a similar tier of prospect to those two. The adjustment factor can play into things moreso for some than others (Barkov Vs Pettersson) so I like to undershoot and be pleasantly surprised instead.

Long shot, but any interest in trading Trocheck?
