Hopefully Svoboda will proof us wrong.
That pick aside, loving the value in getting Cagnoni at #123 though!!! Expected him to go in the early second.
Of course his size makes this a risk, but he's got oodles of things to like. Pronman graded him as above-average NHL level in 3 out of 5 categories: Skating, Hockey IQ and Shot.

NGL. Chicago drafting someone named Marcel Marcel is hilarious.

MHL stats look solid and he was ranked at #90-120, so not bad. We are doing the reverse reach now
Sharks traded their pick to Washington, so no more picks this year for now.

Hmm, okay, then Grier lied about drafting a goalie. Unless they are going to acquire one of these remaining picks.

Maybe. I was probably too optimistic for a long time, so this is the backswing.
Hoping things change for the better but so far I’m not quite seeing it

Okay I’ve often thought the “Grier loves size” narrative was overdone but dude loves giants.
Really really love the Cagnoni pick. Plus, since our defensemen are all 6’7, Cagnoni can do things like skate under their legs to trick opponents.

Sounds like a big kid, poor skater, good offensive instincts, but a long way to develop
We struggled to evaluate Yegor Rimashevsky this season, mostly because
his low motor masked his offensive skill. He was rarely fully engaged in
any of our viewings, especially in the defensive zone.
To say he cheated for offence would be an understatement. Rimashevsky often started his course toward the opposition’s end before his
team had even regained possession of the puck. His early breakouts
were a way for him to manage his main weakness, his skating ability.
Rimashevsky needed to move ahead of the play to create rush-scoring
chances for himself.
When he couldn’t get a momentum advantage, he relied on his off-puck
instincts, one of the more developed aspects of his game. Capable of
anticipating the flow of the play and positioning himself well to support
it, he got many shooting chances from the slot this season, and at his
best, he also turned into a decent playmaker himself.
“He struck me as a purely off-the-puck, one-touch shooter for a while,
but then he switched gears and showed that there are some good
playmaking habits hidden in his game,” Russian regional scout Dylan
Griffing wrote. “He is constantly putting pucks toward high-danger areas
and was pretty accurate in doing so.”
To put himself on an NHL track, Rimashevsky will have to improve his
skating and handling skills and his overall effort and pace of play
