If Calgary wants to move up to draft Iggy and we can get 9 and 41 from them, I would be happy with that. As long as Zeev was gone.

Then I would like us to use 9 to draft Helenius, 39 for Henry Mews, and take a gamble on Dean Letourneau with 41

lots of people have us taking parekh.

niceeeeeee.

even though he doesn't seem to be very popular here, Parekh will be a gamebreaker at the NHL level.

Brady, Stutzle, Sanderson, Parekh is an elite talent and diverse core i can believe in.

Get the Viking too and I'm in.
 
Is it me or Finnish prospects have tended to be drafted too high in general for the value they've provided? Pool Party (4OA), Juolevi (5OA), Kotkaniemi (3OA), Kakko (2OA), our own Lassi (19OA)... There's of course good picks too: Lundell (12OA), Heiskanen (3OA), Rantanen (10OA), Aho (35OA), but a bit further down the draft.

But I'm just wary of drafting Helenius at 7OA, even though I know nothing about him other than his stats.

Do you know who the captain of the current Cup champions is?

For fun, anybody want to go on the record of trying to predict a few things for some bragging rights?

1) the top 15
(1 point for each player correctly in the top 15 and 1 additional point for getting them in the correct pick slot)

2) The sens first pick right, whatever spot it's made at
(+3 points on top of the rest).


My picks:
1- Celebrini
2- Demidov
3-Lindstrom
4- Buium
5-Levshunov
6- Silayev
7-Dickinson
8-Parekh
9-Iginla
10- Helenius
11- Catton
12 - Senneke
13 - Eiserman
14- Yakemchuk
15 - Brandsegg-Nygard


Sens Pick: Dickinson

Bruce is such a moron. Two other reporters asked about the RFA’s and SS refused to speak to it…yet Bruce’s last question of the interview is will you qualify Brannstrom :facepalm:

There's a lot of armchair experts going on here.

As a staunch defender of internet humility, can I politely suggest we give the pros their dues and admit Bobby Mac's list is way more likely to be accurate than the random opinions we're spewing around here?

So should we all stop posting after Mckenzie’s list is released

And then he tweets about it saying Staois's refusal to answer is a sign Brannstrom won't be qualified.

The Sun writers are just obsessed with Brannstrom. In his draft Q&A today, Tim Baines for no reasons asks Grant McGagg whether the Sens should qualify Erik Brannstrom. I thought this interview was about the draft? Why are we talking about a depth roster player? (Because he's small and European and how dare he)

I don't get what's meaningful about the Sens trading 25, as it relates to 7.

Because they traded 25 they're more likely to trade 7? There's no logic to that.

I take it to mean that they get another 1st round pick (moving back a bit) + a 2nd round pick to compensate for losing the 25th.
