I do because I have way too much time to lose lmao.

This is the biggest dilemma really. If A level forward are gone, should we pick a D or go with B level forward, and if we pick a D, should we trade a D for offense support.
Lets just hope one of Lindstrom or Demidov are still there at 5 but if not it should get quite interesting around these parts very quickly. :)
 
Should reset the poll once Bob's list comes out to see the effects of recency bias and fan boredom has on the rankings, in the past 3 weeks I'm sure we have circled just about every prospect in the top 15 except Celebrini

Like Homer guessing the colors of the Italian flag many will claim victory but have an out if they bust

No Mock draft looks the same besides Celebrini being #1.
Don't remember seeing that.
Between #2 and #15 is soo close.

My Final Top 5

SJ : Celebrini
CHI : Levshunov
Ducks : Parekh
CLB : Demidov
Habs : Iginla
 
This was a topic I was listening to on TSN690 earlier today with Marco D'Amico. If Lindstrom and Demidov both go in the top 4 the Habs will be sitting there at 5 with most likely Silayev, Buium, and Dickinson sitting right there for them.

The question then becomes do the Habs see any of these 3 defenseman as being that potential top pairing true #1 NHL dman, which is a very difficult position to fill in the NHL along with a true #1 center. If so do they just take that dman or do they take one of the remaining lower tier potential top 6 scoring forwards remaining in a Sennecke, Iginla, or someone else..

If they feel one of these dmen could be that potential top pairing true #1 dman that would be very difficult to pass up on IMO so I'd just draft one of them and then move a dman or 2 already in the system for forward help.
So D’Amico just being D’Amico, parroting what others have said countless of times before him.
 
Draisaitl and McDavid completely out of gas tonight. The playoffs are a completely different beast. Make sure we draft players that can still be standing and fighting on game 7.
You ain't gonna find players that you'll be able to play 40 minutes a night

They just over relied on them, something normal in such a high stakes match down one

Team game. Florida does not have a top 2 like that, but better balanced otherwise, thanks to Zito 3D chess. And, I speculate (not the only one, I'm sure) that Draisaitl is playing injured.

Edit: still, if not for Kulak brain fart(s)... They might be playing overtime.

Make sure we have enough relevant guys that 2 guys don’t have to carry the whole team…
