Do engines normally have brakes? Oh wait... different type of engine. Train vs internal combustion.
My hype train is powered by the hot steam of my spicy takes.

Nowhere close. Did you just start following this draft class yesterday? The difference in perceived rankings is largely a function of position, not expected ceiling. If Boldy for example played center you can bet your ass you would see his name higher on public draft lists. Relative to his ceiling he is a super quality option at 9 or 10. This class has a strong top 10 or 11. If you aren't willing to watch the prospects you won't know where the talent falls off.
Maybe. Always a risk, though. If you think anyone will take your guy, even a remote chance, I think you just hold firm - even if it's not a "value" pick according to mocks.
Absolutely not. Been following it for over a year. Their is a talent drop from the guys that go 5/6 vs 10/11.
They're not all exactly equal.
Dropping down is a dumb idea as even if you think the drop is marginal, we MUST be on the right side of that margin.
You wanna add picks okay great. Sell our cap space for one.
You want to add another late 1st kkay great. Pckg some of our picks to move up
My hype train is fueled by hatred and fear, similar to how Paul Holmgren operated as Flyers GM
Who is going 5/6 and who is going 10/11? I need to know who you have in mind exactly. For the record I am not saying we should trade back as a result of this. If we do trade back I don't think it will be for a consensus top 11 pick anyways.
On the upside, you get to hang out with Bryz now. On the downside, he's going to talk nonsense about the universe like Carl Sagan on a bad acid trip.
I could see it as part of multiple moves. As in, trade down from 6 to the 9-12 range for more assets, then deal that pick for Barrie and get back into the 1st round with the extra picks you've accumulated.Would anyone be willing to trade 6OA for Tyson Barrie? 27 year old 50 point defenseman? Does that seem like an over- or underpayment?
It's the same thing every year in every sport with every fan base. Everyone wants to trade down.
Took this post off the main board, this is fun to see. (Hudler and Veleno turned out as pretty good picks) :
Wait, that's a downside? I love Bryz.
Don't like that rumor, Seider at 10 would be brutal imo. Not sure how credible this guy is though
I don't buy it. I'm thinking this is Stevie trying to drum up interest as a backup plan. I'm sure that they do like Seider, but I doubt how hard they are looking to move down. I bet it's something like give us Virtanen or similar prospect instead of 40OA.

What is your take on Kolyachonok? Guy wouldn't make a forward pass in the prospect game, but I see people high on him even late first mentions...That guy has "German Andreas Lilja" written all over him.
