On last week’s Athletic podcast, Basu stated that Connelly was part of the last group of prospects at the combine for physical tests I believe. Think he was first or among the first of that group and the Habs staff packed up and left as they started. I would imagine, if they had any interest, they would had stuck around for at least his tests.
Few Points Danault the playoff stud lolDisagree. Lafeniere is the archetype "plays better under pressure" - he was like that at 15 years old, he's still like that. Danault etc.
You take best player available. You sound like Marc Bergevin. That's what he did, bypass Tkachuk took Kotkaniemi because had glaring hole at center.Sure, on a team that doesn’t already have his carbon copy and like 3 other NHL-level LD. I don’t think we can justify picking him with a 5th overall pick with other glaring holes.
Trevor Timmins in CBJ won’t allow them to draft a skilled forward. He’ll bang on the table and argue that there’s a better American HS student with a thick frame out there.Maybe there is some chance Catton goes 4 to Columbus with Lidstrom New info coming up
Celibrini
Levshunov
Silayev
Catton
Demidov
No.We need this pick to bust so we can have a new talking point beyond "but you said such and such about Tkachuk and KK" like holy jumpin change the goddamn record

Dobbers crew has 3 F top 3 and then Parekh as the top D
Bold take: Trevor Connelly is the Josh Ho Sang of this draft
I suspect the Ho Sang reference also has to do with attitude. I recall him saying he was the best player in the draft by far. Career AHLer( all while wearing #66….)B Hayton?

Dickinson superior to anybody we have. Be a year before he is ready. Matheson likely traded by then. Guhle can play both sides. His two concussions scare me. Hutson lacks size. Even if we draft a forward he's not going to play next season.
Dickinson is in Pietrangelo, Hedman, Ekblad category. Not exact but equal impact. Dickinson hockey sense probably higher than anybody in draft
Pretty sad fact. I wonder if they leave the arenas before the end of the game when they scout.

There's traffic after a U18 game in a European city?When I was at the U18s I noticed that a lot of scouts do head out early to beat the traffic.
I dunno, just relaying what Basu reported. Take it for what you will but to me, that just tells me Connelly is a DND for the Habs.

He will probably win the conn smytheStopping all the big players on the other side. Barkov has a lot less points than McDavid but he's certainly has useful.
Watching the Kings, I think Danault’s performance was overstated a bit. He played his part, but clearly it had more to do with Carey Price and the top 4 defence.Stopping all the big players on the other side. Barkov has a lot less points than McDavid but he's certainly has useful.
I’d bet on them leaving at the 2nd intermission.Pretty sad fact. I wonder if they leave the arenas before the end of the game when they scout.
Dickinson might not even be the best left blueliner in the draft….You take best player available. You sound like Marc Bergevin. That's what he did, bypass Tkachuk took Kotkaniemi because had glaring hole at center.
