If we get 1st overall, they will draft AL and figure out a way to get a center another way. Trade Chytil, Kravtsov, whatever. They will figure it out

This is a bad hockey team.
No doubt. BPA is the best policy.

I think some of it is also the belief that this could be a draft where you really can't go wrong picking in that second spot, regardless of who goes first.
As always. In many ways, if your view of where this team is realistic, this upcoming draft is the last of the true "asset gathering" portion of the rebuild. The team should have a lottery pick and will make trades at TDL to acquire more picks. Take the BPL.
Naturally, we will debate to death as to who that player is.
tankathon has the odds (not sure if they are updated from last year)...but yeah from each position your odds of moving up to 1, 2 or 3 are pretty similar...

you take the best player and figure out positions later...you never know what will happen in the future with injuries etc. so if we get the #1 pick you take lafreniere and then figure out center...
that said, we don't even know yet if chytil can be a serviceable 2c no less a top end guy that you'd pass up on an elite prospect for...I'll never complain about having too many good players at the same position...
plus also need to remember life after zibanejad...mika was taken 6th overall, and didn't bust out till year 8...fast forward 8 years and mika will be 34...so if as he ages out we can replace him with a guy like byfield with chytil or whoever behind him. sign me up.

Lafreniere is not a center, but I think he's the unanamous top pick, ATM. Very well could fit on an NHL top 9. Would look fun next to Chytil!!
Raymond is having a tough draft season so far, so I'd hold off on him for now. This is not to say that he won't rebound, but he was recently sent back to Frolunda's J20 squad. It's all good, but slating him top 5 is kind of a misstep. Again, it's early in the season.

A little Pittsburgh/Edmonton lottery magic would change the game.
2 ov in 2020 is the campaign slogan.
and I will make the trip to Montreal for the June draft.

i'm surprised that you didn't just rectify that situation by posting that clip that obviously no one else saw

Sometimes people know that they are busy and only have time for a quick comment.
Enjoy!

Laf - franchise player
Byfield - exactly what we need at C
Raymond - too much of an offensive talent to pass up, even if we're stacked at top-6 RW.
Holtz - yery small step behind Raymond,
Perfetti - maybe #4 because of positional need. I like what I read and see here. If we bum out of the top 3, he should be the target.
my NYR top 5 targets atm

Can we somehow land a second top-10 pick??
Pretty much impossible. We would have had to have a deal happen last season, à la Ottawa-Colorado f. ex. No team projecting to end up in the latter half of the league will entirely move their pick. I think, teams understand how good the upcoming draft is. Like most definitely someone went to the Dallas GM and was like "we will not sign Zucc no matter what, that 1st rounder is way too valuable." And after three months, he was like "ok".
We should be able to get one 20-31 range pick at the deadline though, go from there.

Raymond was demoted to the J20 squad. His pro play hasn't been particularly there yet. I wouldn't say he's a surefire bet in the top 5, right now. Might drop because of it....
With that said, though, you're right the offensive talent is there!!

The Rangers need another high end forward. (Probably two, just to be safe.)

Id still prefer Stutzle outside of the top 5, but both the Cechs in Mysak and and Pytlik would be great second targets if they get a second first. This can all change depending on how their season goes
