Yeah a mobile, better-passing Zadorov sounds about right. Could be a coup.They're both giant men that can fly, so that is already rare company. Edvinsson's skating is amazing all around - he's got top end agility and pivots, whereas Bichsel is more of a straight line guy. In some ways Bichsel shows more polish at this point, people were shy on Edvinsson because he was more of a mess. I don't see Bichsel having Edvinsson's sky high upside but it is still probably around top ten upside in this draft. Imagine a Zadorov type who can skate fast and move the puck, every team would want that in their top four.
Yeah that was a good read, I've been thinking for a week or two that Gauthier might be gone by 6 but I would be elated with either Nemec or Jiricek so that works for me.Yes. Pronman just polled scouts (the latest in the Athletic) and at least a couple of them said they'd take Gauthier top 3.
Let's say the top 3 are Wright, Slaf, Gauthier. Does Seattle go Cooley? They already have Beniers and might want a top RHD. Let's say one goes there. I'd expect Philly to take Cooley leaving us with one of the dmen.
Wonder what Seattle would want to go from 6 to 4 for Cooley, assuming they rate both RHD similarly and would be fine with either.
