Whenever I mock the Kings pick at 21 I have them taking Sacha Boisvert! The Russians are too much of a wild card but maybe LA takes one in the 4th round along with a D-man and forward in rounds 6 and 7...maybe California native Aiden Park?

uBlock Origin my guy. Unless you're on mobile, then you're f***ed.

I'm just glad a forum like this is still around. Almost everything online has pretty much moved to Reddit and Discord. Any old hobby forums are pretty much dead, which is a major bummer considering all the good info that was lost.

Using only realistic or semi realistic options:

1. Trevor Conelly

2. Michael Hage

3. Liam Greentree
4. Stian Solberg
5. EJ Emery
6. Igor Chernyshkov
7. Terik Parascak
8. Sasha Boisvert

9. Adam Jiricek
10. Egor Surin

Last two are tougher to choose. A lot I would be open or ok swapping 9/10 with. Went Jiricek because of potential upside and Surin as just love his game and something we desperately need. Hutson would be the first to join the top 10. Honestly would be ok with any of the eleven names I wrote down. One of the first two has me beyond ecstatic.

Have my final 2 articles ready to go before Hoven posts his predictions for Monday. Hage will go up tomorrow and Luchanko on Sunday. I'll post them here as they're publushed.

FWIW, I really love Luchanko's game, and wish I watched him closer earlier. Due to time constraints, I couldn't make my own video, but think this is a reliable account if you want to watch and give them a follow:



I'm going to try and research possible later round picks for the rest of the week, so I probably won't have anything else until Draft Day.

I'm sorry to those who hoped to see other videos and articles. Looking forward to seeing plenty of posts for the upcoming week though. As of Tuesday (after game 7), this will be the next biggest event to talk about.

I believe that Luchanko is the best option for Kings.
To me he looks like Zegras with defense and drive.

There's definitely an interesting blend there. Zegras has a much better shot, but his deception and ability to make plays at high speed is Zegras-like.

All this with the motor, energy, and grit like Lizotte.

Slightly undersized at 5-foot-10/5-foot-11, but otherwise, I'm trying to think of a Kings player like him. A couple of comparisons I've seen are Yanni Gourde, Nick Suzuki, or Chandler Stephenson. I'm always wary of comparibles as it sets unrealistic expectations, but he definitely has an interesting blend of skill, utility, and motor/grit.

The uk lost its long time Hockey forum this past season, for various reasons. That had been running 25-30 years.

When Zegras was drafted he was all passing.
He did not have good shot…

There are definitely some good maybe great players in the draft in General and the Kings look like they will get someone decent maybe good/great

Just for shits and giggles, what do you think the real consequences would be to the Kings should they draft this kid or another pariah?

Would there be definite losses of revenue or status is the charitable community? Would it just be a bad look criticized in social media? I imagine it would force some employees to have to decide if they could tolerate that and stay.

And I mean that with no motive, no sarcasm intended. Just wondering if anything other than a temporary up roar would be the worst they would have to deal with, because I don't really remember hearing about any consequences in the Mailloux or Miller cases after the initial talk quieted down. Could be wrong, I honestly don't know.

I think a lot of things that professional sports franchises do is done with how they look to OTHER sports franchises in mind
