GDT: NHL Draft Combine: June 4-10, Buffalo

[MD thaivuN]

Habs fans:

Habs should take Zadina at 3, he's BPA, highest upside and will score ppg.

*4 years later*

Buhhhh massive mistake to pass on Brady Tkachuk, we needed him!!!

Now:
Habs should take X player he's a superstar. Ryan Leonard sucks!!!!

And Player Y becomes the best player. "I knew we should have taken Player Y!!"

Now that the combine is over and done with, shouldn't we be having our mock draft fairly soon? @MarkovsKnee

I'll set one up. Maybe a 3 rounder since draft is only a couple weeks away.

Bodyweight is nothing. High level athletes will max out their physical potential.

Leonard comes from a program that has them training like Ivan Drago 24/7 from the age of 16, they are much more likely to not develop much further physically than CHL draftees who still eat white pasta and steamed broccoli while doing very little gym work.

The reference to body weight was in response to someone saying Leonard plays big and benson plays small. 30 lbs of muscle is a HUGE reason for that

I don’t know if this was posted already but there is a reason reporters were unable to find out who the Habs took to dinner …

I wonder what's truly behind that decision.

I wonder what's truly behind that decision.

“Molson is a cheapskate” quips, incoming.

 

[Jack Skellington]

Maybe they don't want media and other teams having any insight into our pick. As far as I know there's nothing stopping them from talking to whichever players they want whenever they want right?

Nah, I was thinking more along the lines of tells for draft day trading.

@Runner77 This.

he could've brought the legendary hot dogs from the bell center.

Mich!

Michkov isn't in town yet.

They trying to save money or something? Lol

Dinner is a good opportunity to get to know the kids. Weird.

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

If Michkov arrives to NA a few days before the draft, it would make a lot of sense for the habs to take him to dinner

Who said Benson plays small? Can I smack him?

You want Molson to fold? These are a premium.

Just dinner?

Take him out for dinner, massage, mani-pedi, go see a movie, take him out to the bar for drinks, and then tuck him into bed at his hotel room at the end of the night.

I doubt he'll make an amazing impression during an interview.

I've been wondering why you guys meet got on it

I was referring to an earlier post someone wrote.

Why do you say that?

I'm actually very impressed reading his interviews, he seems quite mature and 'deep' for his age.

 

[calder candidate]

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

He also has Musty in his top 5 - explain that one.

He also thinks Mailloux is a bust....

Has much as I hate to admit it the snake has a pretty good avg even if he has pretty good miss you have to consider that no scout get it right.

We’ll kind early to rule out Musty… even if he has him 5th he admitted he would draft him there.
Mailloux isn’t a bust but we can all admit that he is most likely over hype…

 

[The Great Weal]

Just dinner?

Take him out for dinner, massage, mani-pedi, go see a movie, take him out to the bar for drinks, and then tuck him into bed at his hotel room at the end of the night.

Start an "anonymous" GoFundMe page so he can buy out his KHL contract

Slaf's comments last year went to their heads. "We don't need to offer any stinking dinner".

Draft is in 2 weeks. Habs have plenty of time to invite few players to visit Montreal, go to lunch and to Chez Paré.
Doing it that way is more discreet

Based on what ?
