Last nights loss should prepare you all for a nice top 5 pick
when othr teams buckle down defensivly in jan expect a nose dive

^ I feel like the pick will be in the 5-10 range.
Hope we can somehow snag Barzal or Strome.
Filip Chlapik is a guy to keep an eye on in the Q. Came over from the Czech Republic this year to join Charlottetown. He's currently leading Charlottetown in points, ahead of Daniel Sprong and he's tied with Sprong for the lead in goals. He's also displaying a decent ability to win faceoff's as he's currently 27th in the league for FOW's.
I believe he's playing with Sprong on the top line but I could be mistaken (maybe QMJHLfollower could correct me on that?). Charlottetown captain Ryan MacKinnon has described his hands and on-ice vision as "special" and "second to none" which is pretty high praise. He's getting pegged as having strong first round chances.
He's 6 foot 1 and 183, so he's not undersized which is nice.
I wonder if Koenecny is gonna take a tumble in the draft. He's struggling to put up points, he's not really improving defensively (he was -3 in an 8-5 win over Guelph yesterday...) and he's not exactly big like Vor has been pointing out.
Those of you who have been talking about how he's not top ten material might be on to something...
i dont want to say i told you so because there's still PLENTY of time for him to turn it around and this could be little more than a long slump, but right now the odds are definitely against him sticking in the top 10. He's been playing scared and timid.
I was thinking what this team could really use is a guy who can find the open spots and fire one timers.
We don't have anyone on the team who can do that.
I think it would compliment the team nicely.
Are there any trigger men like that in the draft?

I'd guess more like 10 - 15, but who knows with this team.
Lol i disagree with that, but Crouse is sort of that player but he hasn't shown it really this season. Bittner to an extent but he's dropping ever so gradually. There aren't really any JVR type guys in this draft.
So there are some shooters out there. Hopefully Hunter can pickup a trigger man in the 2-3 rounds. Going to need to add some skilled wingers this yearHe'll be honest, I've seen a lot of Q games this year, but haven't catch Charlottetown yet. Will definitely take a close look at Chlapik, seems very interesting.
Not a first round guy, but Adam Marsh is really good at finding open spaces and scoring areas, has a really good release to go with it.

Haydon McCool traded to Windsor for Josh Ho-Sang.
Can't wait to go watch an IceDogs game live next.

We could still snag a great prospect like Svechnikov or Provorov at that range
Easy to go with BPA strategy when you have needs everywhere...yes even LD, there is a big drop off after Rielly, even though there is depth.
Dylan Strome looked okay tonight in Subway, he didn't blow me away according to his hype, he looked just okay. I think he is the type to improve as he fills out and gains experience. Scouting is about making projections.
Just had this discussion on another thread, it is not who is ahead at age 17 that matters, it is who is ahead at age 20, 21, or even 22 that usually makes the best draft picks. Players that show progression as opposed to flat lining.
Can progression take place in more than just points? Or progression that determines success only limited to points?
