I’ll feel sick if we pass on Silayev for Parekh
SS quote about where a player is born has no bearing for the Sens is refreshing. We won’t pass on good Russians if the opportunity arises. It’s refreshing

Pierre Mcguire on TSN 690 saying that he expects MTL to take Iginla if he’s available with their pick.
Who isn't that team taking at #5?
Rumours have been posted saying they want Iginla, Demidov, Lindstrom, Sennecke and even Buium.

I don't think it mattered to the previous regime either. They drafted Russians that were playing in North America and they signed them as free agents at the NHL level.SS quote about where a player is born has no bearing for the Sens is refreshing.

The only guy I don’t want at 7 is Parekh. He has too many red flags and he’s not the offensive play driving offensive defenceman many proclaim he is.
Too much bust factor imo
GottaIf demidov slips past Montreal he may be there for us at 7. Do we do it?

Yes because McKenzie's list had him at #2. We need prospects at all positions and Demidov would be a great forward prospect to have. Similar for Silayev as Bob has him at #4.If demidov slips past Montreal he may be there for us at 7. Do we do it?
why? because he isn't skating the puck up every time as the only way he can create offense?
i mean look at chabot, he's great at that but not really an elite offensive defenseman. and look at fox, he never skates the puck up and he is an elite offensive defenceman.
many different ways to be a play driving defenceman.
Also, Silayev wasn't even at that showcaee iirc.Normally I'd agree, but all the Russian kids worry me a bit. From what I understand, no NHL scouts have seen these kids live over the course of the season? That makes it really hard to properly evaluate them. That showcase their agent did at the combine is nice and all, but those aren't real games and conditions.

Not sure there has been any people stating something is happening for fact, not to mention Bob’s own words from his article, or the title of his rankings:
McKenzie's Final Draft Ranking: Many attractive and diverse options after Celebrini
“This year’s rankings, from No. 2 on, would appear to be much more challenging than usual to assemble because of two factors.
First, there seem to be many more divergent opinions and variance on even the top 10 picks in the draft this year than we are used to seeing.”
“If it’s a challenge to separate and order the top six defencemen in the draft, the same dynamic is very much at play with the top six forwards on TSN’s final list.”
I think it would be tough to pass up. Guy’s a unicorn.Do we take Silayev if we drops to #7?
Yeah I mean they are clearly trying to do all of these things. Buium is the pick if he is there. There's an outside chance he might be. I feel like one of him or Silayev falls and the obvious choice will be an option.It’s a captain obvious type tweet.
Lindstrom
Parekh
Dickinson
Iginla
Sennekke
Catton
Yakemchuk
Are all in the range of our pick.
Personally I really think it’s Iginla followed by Dickonson. (I don’t expect Lindstrom to be available when we pick)
I think Parekh personally is the last player I want mentioned in the top 10. He has the highest bust potential of any player. He gets no separation with his skating. That's #1 for any offensive d man to break out and create moving the puck up the ice. I find it very interesting how Yakemchuks defenisve game is questioned and Parehks is not. He is a horrible d zone defender. In general he doesn't look like he even thinks about it. Atleast Yakemchuk boxes out and protects the house really well. Will lay the lumber.Parekh or Iginla and the Sens will be very happy.
I say go with with electric right hand shot dman…
