When he's a 30 goal scorer in the NHL... People in this thread will understand.

Sure mate. If he actually makes it to that point, by all means, mark it down.

The guy can't even pick stuff from the top shelf at home and you expect him to score 30 goals in the NHL?!

 

[417]

Like we can move up and pay extremely high for Hage but we can't use late rounders to move up for Poirier or Boilard?

Maybe they don't want to

 

[sansabri]

Is Holtz a bust?

maybe not, but i don't see him being a regular top 6

 

[le_sean]

Crazy to think of the value the Devils could have had for the 7th overall pick in 2020. Now he’s just a throw-in

I would've taken Holtz for free as well

A masterclass in devaluating a former top 10 pick. *Chef's kiss*

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Maybe they are the smartest in the room and saw something we didn’t see.

Yeah, he can score and that's how you win games.

I'm all for getting size, but Poirier is a high value pick and he more than likely increases hos value and you can deal him.


Rangers trying to get all the 6'7 guys. Means Trent Swick is next for their selection

 

[Whitesnake]

Having opinions on a board of opinions is now considered bad....insane takes by some of you.

“they’ll trade up for a good player but not for a bad one”

Can’t question NHL scouts. What a world we live in. What’s the point of HockeysFuture being a message board then?

It’s almost better that this day is average. Then it means the Habs won’t have “won” the draft which is always something that doesn’t work out in the end.

 

[HuGo Sham]

[Team_Spirit]

What are the Devils doing lmao

Silayev top10 and now this

 

[MarkJ]

booooooooo

 

[Mrb1p]

Yes because they are worthless and Hage isnisn't

Yet they both outproduced Hage in a better league. It's almost as if they're all good players.

Holtz and Schmid gone for Cotter and pick...just wow.
Poirier gone.

Sorry, TODAY, RIGHT NOW, not a good 2nd day of the draft. Shoot me.

Ridiculous draft day.

Is Holtz a bust?

Yes.

“they’ll trade up for a good player but not for a bad one”

I don't see it. The value isn't the same either.

 

[SannywithoutCompy]

Romani to Vancouver, steal

 

[crosbyshow]

Serge Boisvert and Donald Audette.....they don't seems to sale their players to well...

 

[Treal]

Thread is derailing fast Let's face it, none of us are scouts.. Doesn't mean we can't have favourites. Absolute silly talk!!

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Man i expected Hugues to get rid of some players with some picks damnit

 

[Seb]

Serge Boisvert and Donald Audette.....they don't seems to sale their players to well...

It's hard to do when there's nothing to sell

 

[newdimension]

Love the Romani pick for the Canucks in the 6th. Maybe there's something there, definitely worth a shot for them.

 

[Habs13]

Nuts! Was hoping Holtz was going to be the young player the Habs scored in a trade this year. Oh well. Still pretty f***ing happy with the draft so far!

 

[HabsCode]

going for a boom/bust type of prospect in the 6th would be great. Nothing to lose.

 

[Schooner Guy]

It is just a giant dummy fest every year.....I dealt with a horde of neanderthals yesterday who actually believe that betting sites have NHL insiders who have access to heavily guarded draft strategies/prospect rankings lol.

I swear 90% of the National aggregate IQ points resides in 10 % of the population

The best is when people think a certain player should go in the 2nd round but then it's the 32 NHL teams and all their hockey ops staff who are the clueless ones when he goes late in the 5th.

And they get mad at Habs brass because they didn't race fast enough to get to the front of that massive lineup at the podium to pick the player.

Betting sites do have knowledge of what is going on. How do you think they come up with the starting odds? Now i suspect, that like horse racing, the experts and insiders place their bets at the end so the final odds represent what should happen. Weren't the odds correct for the top 5 in the draft?
