Well, Michkov didn’t drop because of player evaluation, they were other circumstances that some teams were petrified of along with his own machinations. Remember, they had to meet with him - twice - to be convinced he even wanted to play here. They were looking for reasons to not take him.

He's still someone who fell and the Flyers are hoping he makes other teams looks stupid. Why don't even know why Buium fell at this point, except that the Flyers didn't want him because they already have Andrae.

I feel like I'm losing my mind a bit here. Buium fell on draft day. Not one player brought up by someone other than me did that. They fell before because they didn't live up to on ice expectations or because of a war and international relations.

Buium had zero off ice issues and significantly improved in his draft year.

Ottawa does it again! There were some amazing quotes on Eliasson. Ginning-esqe. Someone with six points in the Swedish junior league went in the top 40.

Colorado takes the first goalie

 

[FLYguy3911]

This thing is flying. I have to go to the bathroom.

 

[BringBackHakstol]

Is this televised?

 

[Danko]

Kevin Hayes trade

 

[JojoTheWhale]

Whoa.

 

[FLYguy3911]

That sounds bad for Tampa.

 

[GKJ]

 

[FLYguy3911]

Hayes trade!

 

[Tarpongg]

Tampa is not afraid to make tough decisions

 

[Danko]

Hayes to Pittsburgh lol

 

[JojoTheWhale]

So the primary piece is Conor Geekie. Yeah.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Cristall and Hutson in back to back second rounds. Nice work.

 

[GKJ]

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Based Caps

 

[Danko]

So whats the Hayes buyout situation now

 

[Strawberry Fields]

Damn. I like Malenstyn but a 2nd is insane value for Wash. And to turn it into Hutson... Philly would never.

 

[GKJ]

So whats the Hayes buyout situation now

He isn’t. He was traded.

I'm not a fan at all of Briere's day 1. But a question I wanted to pose to everyone: do you think the NHL is a lot lower on Buium than most of the scouting services and if so, why?

Doesn't seem like anyone was too keen to make a big trade with Danny to come up and get him if the best we could do was a 3rd rounder from Minnesota. And needless to say, he was the last of all the top crop of defensemen to come off the board, which was a surprise to me. A couple guys went before him, who I think don't have legitimate #1D upside.

Did Stiga shank a scout?

 

[Danko]

Kings may be moving up

 

[BigToe]

Ralph at 48 is wild

 

[FLYguy3911]

Did Stiga shank a scout?

Brindley went in the second after performing in college and U20s. Same thing.
