I'm Chicago and see I'm picking at #7. Wouldn't CBJ get that pick from the Seth Jones trade if the Blackhawks don't have a top 2 pick? Or are we throwing out conditional trades to keep things simple with the season still not completed?

Sorry if this was mentioned already. I haven't had a chance to read all the posts.

My reaction if Habs have a top 2 pick and don't get Wright or Slaf.:naughty:

The top list is standings as of April 9th. I wanted to document that because the ACTUAL standings will change as we go through the rounds, but this draft will follow those standings.

Draft Order is below the rules section.
 
New Jersey Devils are really proud to select from TPS Turku in SM-liiga league... Juraj Slafkovsky.

"We have target a defenseman, but when we all see Juraj Slafkovsky available, this is a no brainer for the future of this team".

"Slafkovsky got all tools to dominate in this league, he is big, strong, great possession puck, great hands, great shot and he will complete really well a player like Jack Hughes, that's the reason we selected him ahead a defenseman"

Great fit in Jersey indeed. But would fit even better in the blue white red.
 
With the 5th overall pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, the Philadelphia Flyers are proud to select defenceman Simon Nemec of HK Nitra.

We love the complete package that Simon brings. The poise, the puck-moving, the defensive awareness. His current playoff performance has solidified his position as the top defenceman of this class. He’s now shown another level to his offensive game. We are proud to add Simon to a defence that includes Provorov, Sanheim, York, and unfortunately Ristolainen.

@Treb you're up!

Thought you were taking Nemec!
Lol

Great pick for NJD.

Slafkovsky - Hughes - Holtz

Hate them, already!

You realize Flyers fans are going to go ballistic if they take another D in 1st round, right?

They'll never live down the Caufield moment. Lmao

I love Nemec though (draft thread supports this) and think he'll be the best D they ever drafted.

f*** you.

With the 6th overall pick, Ottawa is proud to select, from HC Skoda Plzen of the Czech League, David Jiricek!

@WinterLion will be PMed.

Lol possibly. Like you, I also thought they took more defencemen in the 1st, but it’s been a while. York 2019 and before that Provorov in 2015. Still the BPA here and like you said, he’s easily the best of the bunch for the Flyers.

Thanks!

Yes, If Slafkovsky had left on the board, Nemec would be my pick. Close between Jiricek and Nazar too.

I think Slafkovsky is a "sexy pick" to make and Slafkovsky - Hughes - Holtz looks potentially amazing together on paper!

It was between him and Nemec for me. I like Jiricek’s upside but not playing hurts his stock a bit while Nemec is improving. David has a chance to be a Ristolainen type, and the Flyers don’t want two of them :laugh:
