MUSTY! Now that's a future jersey purchase kinda name! Love the scoring/ playmaking combo and power game he could bring. Should thrive burying pucks from Smith or Eklund. The future is already feeling much brighter!!!

I like the Musty pick but not the Smith one but it was expected. I hope they get Dragicevic with their next pick.

It was a great 1st round!! Loved it.
I was even more excited about Musty at 26 then Smith at 4 but both are total elite! Love it.
Let's GOOOOOOOO

I feel like you will grab dragicevic or Hrabal tom at 36… giving the sharks a really nice first 3 picks
Smith better be working on his Defensive game or he's gonna run into problems once he becomes NHL ready. I give the pick a B- only due to the fact that it wasn't an obvious reach. I'm also liking how he handles himself in interviews and such, he just comes across as someone who is going to become a fan favorite and someone who will be heavily involved in the community, which is great. Michkov is gonna wind up the better player for sure.
Musty was a Home Run. A+ pick there.

I think Smith should be left in BC for two seasons. He could use the extra development time and it won't make a financial difference for him since his ELC will start in 2024-25 either way.
Dang, Musty is young for this draft. That’s good.

Very very happy with our day 1. Smith is the second best option at 4 and he can still be a 1C. Musty is a steal. Fantastic pick there.

It's getting annoying how high on Michkov everyone was. We don't know what the interview was like but even his draft interview after getting selected left a lot to be desired. He seems like the type of player that would refuse to play for the Sharks.

I havent been in here because I was out with a few buddies, but yeah as expected Grier goes for the boston/ family connection.
Will Smith will probably be fine, but we will likely miss on someone even better (similar to Meier)
Musty is a fantastic get

Mine are Dragicevic and Cristall, neither should be dropping this far and have a ton of upside
You can say this about any draft pick. I don’t know how you can judge a post pick interview in such a manner without some real bias going into it. He was the best prospect after Bedard. This is in its most kind interpretation likely about the time more than anything else.

I'm beating the deadest of horses, but saying things like this right now...it's like grading a class based on the first day.
