2023 Draft Discussion

All that matters is we get Riley Heidt with our late teens 1st

 

[ZDH]

Really hoping for O. Moore with our first pick and Lardis with one of the 3 second rounders.

Probably won't be available. Centers go earlier than 18.

I don't think he'll last past Nashville.

Until HP comes out, I'm not sure.

I finally got sold on Dvorsky - but so did everyone else, so he's probably gone at 9.
I think I'm sold on Moore if Dvorsky's gone. Or Benson if he falls.

For the second pick, Moore and Dvorsky are both gone.

Guys in that wheelhouse -
Reinbacher - if he somehow falls.
Heidt.
Daniil But.
Sam Honzek.
Gabe Perrault.
Otto Stenberg.
Cristall - if he falls.
Yager
Heidt.

Those bastards better not take him. They ruined my Svechkov dreams, can’t have them steal Heidt too! I want my Scott Gomez 2.0!

 

[Perfect Human]

One day.

Get hype y’all!!!

 

[norrisnick]

Updated the title in preparation...

 

[HoweFan]

Willander, Nelson, Whalberg, Edstrom, and Rhekopf are on my list for the three second rounders

 

[Reddwit]

For shits I ran the lottery sim like 50 times and guys - we dropped to 11 several times before landing a lottery pick.

 

[Perfect Human]

so, that islanders' pick is looking real nice right now

1 game away from #17

Ive never cheered for another team like I have Florida in these playoffs. Them moving on screws the Leafs (blow it up!), screws the Habs (they move down like 12 spots), and helps the Wings move up one spot. It couldnt get any sweeter!

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

C'mon hockey gods, we're not asking for 1OA! We'd be perfectly happy with 2OA and Gabe Carlsson!

 

[GoBoltz56]

Can the isles pick be better than 17 in any scenario?

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Can the isles pick be better than 17 in any scenario?

Nope. It’s looking like it will be 17 for sure.

 

[TheOctopusKid]

Nope. It’s looking like it will be 17 for sure.

The perfect Riley Heidt spot

 

[Avery Rule]

Who is ready for Christmas in May?

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

Thoughts?

If 2 of Leonard/Moore/Perrault are available at 9. Pick one of them at 9 and then use 17(hopefully) and something else to move to 10 to get the other one?

I don't personally see it being worth it. There's going to be so much available at 17. More and more I'm thinking we should try to trade up into the ~20-25 range to make it possible to get something like Dvorsky+Stenberg+Willander.

More like saved you from a Svechkov nightmare.

 

[jkutswings]

Twelve hours to ruin.
Twelve hours to glory.
May the proper logo get skipped along the way.

and with the 11th pick!

 

[Perfect Human]

Make sure to save a kitten or something today.

Get all of that good karma and direct it to the lotto.

 

[lilidk]

I'd take Wood , Moore or Yager. There will be plenty prospects with upside even at 11

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

and with the 11th pick!

That would be such an injustice but wouldn't surprise me at all.

I'm betting on the lottery wins going to some combination of Chicago, Philadelphia and Arizona.
