2022 NHL Entry Draft

[Chainshot]

If there is someone they really want (ie Peterka) they could move up again

Maybe. They may also sit snug in their positions late in the 1st round with a collection of players to select rather than worrying about moving up all that much.

I'm also on record as thinking using one of the later firsts as part of roster crafting for next season is fine with me. Waiting for a couple of 20-something pick to finally make the team is a time horizon is not something they need be content with if they can turn up a player who is in prime production years and fills near-term roster holes.

Good comparison on Slafkovsky.

What’s Yurov like as a player iyo? I’ve read a bunch of profiles on him but they differ a lot, and I can’t find much to watch.

Yurov has some Hossa to his game. Good at both ends, really understated game but constantly making the right decisions. A Russian Reinhart with better wheels? Kind of like William Nylander.

This is a fairly decent list

While I appreciate these things, I hate that they’re only the 1st round.

That's their teaser to get you to subscribe

Terrible teaser then. A: project picks based on the current standings and how you think the playoffs go, and B: the 1st round is boring. Everybody knows those, just not who picks who.

Looking at this list.......the idea of taking Lamoreux and Salomonsson at the bottom of the 1st is leaving me drooling a bit. Two right-handed defense-first guys who aren't incompetent in their own zone to go with Dahlin and Power. I mean.........just thinking about this in 5 years:

Dahlin-Lamoreux
Power-Salomonsson
Samuelsson-Jokiharju

Has me salivating.

Take Geekie with our first pick?

Man that'd be an excellent draft.

I’d be thrilled with Lamoreux. Super high on him

 

[Zach716]

Nemec/Jiricek or bust!

 

[Faceboner]

I’d be thrilled with Lamoreux. Super high on him

Don't forget about warren

 

[Faceboner]

Nemec/Jiricek or bust!

I'd prefer a forward over jiricek but nemec would be great has no.1 dman type potential with a high floor

 

[UnleashRasmus]

Nemec/Jiricek or bust!

I prefer Wright, Cooley, over Jiricek. Though to me there's not a ton of difference on a prospect level of Savoie to Jiricek.

Petrovsky being 98th is a surprise. But I’d have no problem drafting him with our 3rd rounder. That’d actually be ideal

He's a nice player definitely worth a 3rd, in the 4th that's pure value

Yea, unfortunately he won’t last that long. Not unless there’s a lot of jumpers. Of course that can happen, but I don’t expect it. I mean he can always be this years Raty and take that title away from Lambert

Are you just going from thread to thread and posting one-liners about Power?

 

[Chainshot]

Nemec is getting more love from multiple sources - McKeen's has him at 2, EP has him rising, and THN has this tidbit from yesterday:

Nah, I take Shane Wright over Power.

But I'd place Power 2nd in this draft with no hesitation at all.
