LW Kyle Connor - Michigan, NCAA (2015, 17th, WPG)

[FlappyGiraffe]

If Connor was in this year draft, would he be ahead of Matthews?

Probably be equal with the finns

 

[DancesWithWookies]

If 2015 was redrafted, were would Connor go? 4th? 5th?

 

[fmrdh]

Top 10 for sure, possibly top 5.

The only guys I would definitely take above him based on the Jets needs are McEichel, Provorov and Hanifin. Some of the other top forwards (Marner, Strome, Rantanen) are pretty close IMO.

 

[Aceboogie]

Tied with Strome/Marner/Hanifin forsure

2015 is starting to look like a really nice draft, with non-top 15 guys like Connor, Boeser, Barzal, Konecny, White, and Aho all developing exceptionally well and pushing for a top 10 redraft position. I'd definitely consider Connor top 5.

2015 looks like a strong draft. Guys picked after him such as Boeser and Konecny are there too.

I don't think any of the teams would trade one those forward for another (including Barzal etc.).

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

Sigh. He is what I thought he was, and what we desperately need...

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

Word on the street is that his game will be on tsn tonight.

 

[lomiller1]

Yuoi know what's really satisfying? That the Oilers could have taken him the pick right before our and played him on a line with McDavid for the next decade but decided to trade the pick for a bottom paring D.

wow I couldn't even imagine if Oilers had taken him at 16. That woulda been ridiculous!

I think that is Hockey East I don't have the Big 10 network, so I suppose I'll have to watch the tank wars between Buffalo and Toronto or go out and get drunk.

Just noticed that Dylan Larkin's NCAA season last year amounted to 35 games played; Kyle Connor has played an equal number of games thus far this year.

Larkin - 35 GP, 15G, 32A, 47P, +18

Connor -35 GP, 34G, 31A, 65P, +37

 

[Gump Hasek]

Kyle Connor with an assist already, extending his points streak to 25 games.

Not missing much other than the CCM line owning the B1G per usual.

Someone posted it yesterday (CorgisPer60 I believe), but it's worth re-posting.
