For a player of his caliber it's not very good. Doesn't mean he thinks Zadina is a bad prospect because we passed on him. Trust me, I don't think any knowledgable Habs fan is salty, even though Zadina is a great prospect.You're right, his playoffs were terrible, 12 points in 9 games is pathetic! He's a bust, should have gone in the 4th round, he's awful.
And risk the yotes taking Kotkaniemi. Gotcha. Detroit got a great player, and he would actually be much better for them since they have Larkin and we would have had Danault.Habs drafted on need
might as well have been picking 6 th or 7th
Fell on Detroits lap

By taking the best center available ranked number 5 on Bob's list?risk ?

We shall see how the other players do against men.we shall see how the “ best center” does on NA ice sheet
Typical argument to try and undermine a promising european prospect.we shall see how the “ best center” does on NA ice sheet
I think Pacioretty's shot and production, isolated, is a very good comp for Zadina actually. However, they are different animals. Zadina brings more intensity, fire, personality and charisma to the ice. This doesn't make Pacioretty a bad player - because he's not - but he's a forward version of Jay Bouwmeester... very good player, but extremely low intensity, that often shows when it matters most (and not in a good way). There's few low-intensity players that I would want to go to battle with in a game 7.
Do you even know whats the actual difference between Liiga ice surface and NA ?we shall see how the “ best center” does on NA ice sheet
You guys didnt lucked in, you got a great prospect that was ranked around where you were picking.detroit lucked in with montreal and phoenix drafting more based on need
however, they both got great prospects
me thinks all three teams are happy

Well, you kinda lucked out because Arizona picked Hayton and he didnt have anything to do with the top 5.
Kk... and now where was Kotkaniemi ranked? People act like he was ranked 12th. No, Mackenzie had him at 5 lol.2018 NHL Entry Draft: Ranked #4 by HOCKEYPROSPECT.COM

So he was 5th on Bobby Macs ranking... ? So he wasnt actually a huge reach, and Zadina wasnt a huge faller?2018 NHL Entry Draft: Ranked #8 by HOCKEYPROSPECT.COM

Him sniping a couple goals in development camp doesn't change that. It's what he's done all year against goalies of that caliber.

So i was right all along
Kotkaniemi was a riser, while Zadina was a faller.
Reasons behind that? I don't know. But it is what it is.
Still, can we just be happy with the guy our respective team drafted and stop chirping each other?
How many Red Wings fans do you see in Kotka's thread? It's Montreal's fans who are coming over here to tell us our prospect isn't that good, not the other way around.Kotkaniemi was a riser, while Zadina was a faller.

Bobby macs ranking is probably the most accurate one. 5th and 4th average is closer to reality.Kotkaniemi was a riser, for sure; but his final rankings range was very wide.
Zadina stayed at 3 on most charts for most of the season. The only place he fell was the draft itself, hence why people are calling him a steal at 6.
