Finished doing all my draft research and here are the realistic players I’d like us to take. Bolded are guys I’ve followed a bit throughout the year as they all play for or are committed to UMass.

If we trade into the first round(unrealistic)
-Peyton Krebs
-Ryan Suzuki
-Arthur Kaliyev

Sticking with early 2nd round pick
-Matthew Robertson
-Alex Vlasic
-Philip Tomasino
-Nolan Foote
-Jayden Struble
-Zac Jones - going to UMass where Ferraro/Makar were under a great coach for d-men Doug Carvel

Trade into Later 2nd round or keep Third Round
-Marc Del Gaizo - have written a ton about him here, just finished freshman year at UMass. Tory Krug-lite.
-Aaron Huglen
-Jackson Lacombe
-Adam Beckman
-Kirill Slepets
-Anttoni Honka
-Ronnie Attard

Later Rounds
-Filip Lindberg- UMass goalie I’ve written about a bunch here. Huge 2nd half of season with run to NCAA title game. True freshman. Very athletic and great positioning.

If we could manage to get one of Suzuki or Kaliyev I would be ecstatic. Kaliyev especially, I see a lot of Mark Strone in him. Tomasino also impresses me.
 


Brayden Tracy, Alex Beaucage, Mikko Kokkonen, Jordan Spence, Adam Beckman, Vladislav Kolyachonok look like good "bang for your buck" picks that could be available with #41. Brayden Tracy in particular.
 
Just take a European so they can stay over or come to the CHL. It sucks when you get guys too good for the CHL and too bad for the NHL and they are stuck
 
I will be the first to admit I am an absolutely roaring dumbshit when it comes to prospects. I didn't like the Meier or Couture picks but thought Nick Petrecki and Ty Wishart were damn fine selections. Please just lock me out of this thread because I have less than zero to offer in here.

I could understand Petrecki at the time, but Wishart??

Anybody interested in Nick Robertson? He seems like a realistic pick at 41. Smaller guy who plays a high motor/aggressive game with some skill.
 
Quick heads up that I am making a fresh GDT for the draft. It will be up in maybe an hour or so.

I just wanted to note it so that people don't go making a GDT or complaining that there isn't one.

It's also nothing against this thread, just that a proper GDT will be optimized for following the draft (ie frontloaded with necessary info)
 
Gotta admit, it's kinda a load off not having to worry about a 1st round pick. Heck after the pick at 41 we're all gonna be going "who"? I've followed this draft class far less than I usually would. It'll be interesting to see if DW swings another trade or two or somehow trades up into the first round or very beginning of the 2nd.

LOL. I think unless you are picking top-3 or so, there is so much pressure in the 1st round (as a fan). When you are in a situation where there is a doubt that the GM does not pick the player you think he should pick, there will be a lot of stress involved .. :D
 
I have paid literally zero attention to the draft this season. This is the first year since I think 2010 that I haven’t paid really close attention. I couldn’t tell you anything about anyone past Hughes. So I’m just looking to be entertained tonight. :laugh:
 


So we're definitely drafting a Finnish player this year. :sarcasm:



It's all numbers/analytics based so that's why you might see some weird names sticking out. But that's also why I like it for a team that doesn't pick until 41 and might want to hit a home run.


He's a little small for my taste. Would've drafted a bigger kid.

I literally just started reading into late first / early second round picks this morning like most of you guys unlike previous drafts that I followed to the T.

I have to think we will take a draft riser and probably someone none of us are familiar with. We will nab fallers in the later rounds like we have recently.

Hopefully we go for another high upside prospect at 41# that has a chance to be a top 6 forward or top 4 D.

If this draft is as deep in goaltending as they say, going for a goalie with high upside would be fine too. Having a deep goalie pool has always turned out well for us. This could very well be the time to look for Jones' successor.

I think if we're drafting a goalie, it's gonna be next year. All of our prospect goalies have improved on their previous year. I imagine that they want to let Emond, Korenar, and Robinson simmer a little more to see if they actually need to spend draft capital on another goalie.

True. I guess it depends on if they brass thinks that a goalie is the position BPA at the time. Later rounds for sure if someone falls.
