Finland captain, Kasper Halttunen will be interesting.

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

What about 7th?

I do remember Gorton saying (in the video they released of their 2022 pre draft scouting meetings) to not fall in love with a guy with gre as t character but low production. Wonder what he'd say about a guy with speed and skating but low production.

i dont think he belongs in the top 10 but would love him at #17 if hes still around

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Then you kidnap him and put him in Crosby's parent's basement with the washing machine. Shooting pucks on it all day.

You have to get him to make up his mind about what type of player he wants to be as well, where his game should go. A guy like Adam Nicholas would actually do quite well in that department, it's a big part of his approach.

Outside of the top guys on the US, it seems like Dvorsky's had the strongest showing so far.

It'd be interesting to see how dominant he'd look if he had wingers as good as Smith does, and pre existing chemistry heading into the tournament.

Ya I like him, this board doesn’t seem to, but he’s in the mix for me at 17.

everything considered, he’s been the best player in the tourney so far.

The real surprise to me is Otto Stenberg. He wasn’t on my mid first radar, but he certainly has put himself in that mix.

 

[Whitesnake]

yeah.....Dvorsky is coming to Montreal. Slovakian...you know..., Scorer (trying hopefully to emulate Kulich), good 2-way player....

 

[SOLR]

2-0 for Dvorsky

 

[WeThreeKings]

That's what I want to see from Dvorsky, use that shot to playmake off of it.

 

[NotProkofievian]

Really, really good stuff from Dvo and Strbak on that powerplay. Really nice to see.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

Dvorsky is so f***ing good, you guys are crazy lol

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Dvorsky might be a favourite at 17 after it's all said and done

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

“Elite Pass”

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Dvorsky assist. You could see that one coming.

2-0 Slovakia

 

[SOLR]

I heard Bedard is a favourite at 22th

Dvorsky will be selected in the top 7 for sure....

 

[WeThreeKings]

These Finnish jerseys are an abomination

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I'm really liking this Urban fellow in Slovakia's net.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

HUGHES!

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Tsn talking about Hughes is there watching the Finland - Slovakia game.

Jokes that they might want to draft Dvorsky. Dave Reid mentioned a few times that Hughes coached Will Smith

Edit: not Reid, Dave Poulin

 

[BergevinBurner]

They just cut to Hughes in the crowd watching this game. Dvorsky confirmed our pick?

 

[SOLR]

These Finnish jerseys are an abomination

I can't see em

 

[Hacketts]

Chances of Dalibor playing at the worlds?

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

Chances of Dalibor playing at the worlds?

I’m hoping so

 

[SOLR]

Chances of Dalibor playing at the worlds?

At this stage, I think he should end his season and go train.

It's possible. Pretty short turn around. WC starts May 12th.

Yeah, agreed.
