Sullivan gots to go!
The problem with Hagens is he is (apparently) playing for the "wrong" Boston team. The czar, I mean coach, is a Boston U alum. Hagens plays for BC.
BC product Kevin Hayes has been buried on the fourth line prior to his injury. Meanwhile, Boston U alum Matt Grzelcyk is a first-pairing, first-PP player for this team.
My lean RIGHT NOW is Michael Misa, followed closely by Hagens. But the WJC should be very telling.

I could see this team ending up in the 3-6 area, depending on who else they ship out throughout the season.
It'd be really hard to pass on a guy like Martone if he fell into this team's lap. I'd be extremely happy with Martone or Misa. Then whoever the consensus better pick is between Frondell and Schaefer.
Lotta season left and the WJC as well. Gonna be interesting to follow who ends up where in the rankings leading into the off-season.

Yeah we should have a bit clearer picture after the WJC. I doubt we get 1OV or even 2OV. At best, 3rd. At worst 6-7 which means a guy like Misa, Martone, Fondell, or McQueen should be available. Not the franchise guy but that top line piece.

Imagine the main boards if the Pens get 1OA though. I'd almost be as excited for that as the pick.
Pens should draft this kid...

As a Penguins fan, never get excited about a player from a European country because you're just courting disappointment. The player will inevitably slide to the third round and we will pass over them for Grayson Krunt from Ass Horse, Manitoba.Pens should draft this kid...

Yeah, but they can make an exception for a kid named Gonchar.

If we are to tank, last night was a good night. Everyone right under us in the standings got points, and they all have games in hand!!!
I don’t think it would be that big of a freak out. No offense to Hagens but it sounds like he’s not as strong of a #1 as years past.
Now if we got it in 2027 I would feed on their tears.

Maybe it's still too early and some of the draft rankings are out of date but after the first few (4 or so) picks there seems to be a drop-off in this draft.
I mean even statistically you go from guys scoring near 2 PPG in the OHL and then a couple picks later it's a guy scoring at just slightly over 1 PPG in the same league.

Yeah, I'm getting the impression from a few of the early rankings that it's one of those crapshoot drafts, not really a "deep" draft, whatever we mean by those. Doesn't mean that we shouldn't try to get picks, but the vibe seems to be that it's going to be one of those years where people are going off the board at like 6OA.

It's not a good draft. Which is of course why we are projecting to get a major pick.
