Isn’t this draft supposed to be kinda wacky? I don’t thing I could confidently say who won’t be there at 9 outside of maybe like 3 players lol

Guenther is interesting. Doesn’t really fill this teams “needs” but if he’s there at 9, he might be the best talent available.

I’ve seen comments from people who follow the WHL closely that say he’s a top 5 talent in this draft. That could just be them being WHL homers though.

Who is your choice at #9?

He's an EDM boy, maybe the Coiler's want to trade up if super scouts guy is further down the board. Let's see how good JB's gun slinger skills are?

He could end up looking really good next to McD/Drai

Honestly just started diving into the prospects over the past couple of weeks, out of the guys I’ve looked at so far I like Guenther or a trade down for L’Heureux. Still looking into Guenther though lol

Haven’t looked into the favs here..McTavish or Edvinsson.

I don't think Mctavish will be there at 9 - but if he is....I'd go for him. To get 11 points in 13 games (9 goals) in that league is very good let alone at 18 years old.

Mathews had 36gp 24g 22a 46p in his draft year there.

Plus he's 6'2 over 200 pounds and a center....yes please

A forward for sure. Clark, Edvinsson (don’t like), Hughes and Power will be gone. Definitely a preference for a center like Mctavish or the Russian. I’d be ok w Eklund or Johnson as well I suppose.

Exactly, in the unlikely event everything is picked over JB needs to grow a pair and trade down.

Mactavish will be gone before 9, no need to worry

18 year old Sam Bennett is that what your thinking?

Does the Taylor Hall #1 lottery good luck charm/curse still count since he was technically a Sabre this season?

Chris Tanev on Quinn Hughes : He is going to be the best defenseman in the league at some point. He gets it, on and off the ice, great kid, he wants to win and will only get better.
