How is that determined?

I’d imagine because his rights don’t expire before the draft. So it rolls over to next draft when his rights expire out in August. Hayes didn’t sign until August of 2014 with the Rangers. The Blackhawks didn’t get the compensation pick until the 2015 draft.
I have this feeling now that Dvorsky is capable of way more offensive production than we think. His production in the J20 league was consistently super good and he was buried on the 3rd line in the Allsvenskan for a deep SHL organization this year. His production was pretty good for a draft year player but I bet he's capable of way way more. If someone from a time machine told me Dvorsky becomes one of the big steals of the draft and proves a ton of people wrong, I would believe it. But scouts have to talk to his coaches to get the whole picture tbh.I'm with you on this. He's a dude I wouldn't necessarily pick depending on how the board shakes out at 7 but I would not be upset if they took him (again, depending on how the board shakes out and who else is available). It would be interesting if he is still sitting there at 11-12 if they traded back up to get him. There seems to be a TON of forwards in that 7-20 area that I don't think anyone would blink if these guys went in any order in that range. What's really can shape this draft is when the defensemen will go. I think there's a real possibility that no defensemen go in the top ten, which could mean a lot of trade ups and a run on defensemen in the 10-20 range. There's also a chance that multiple defensemen go in the top ten which could mean a bunch of trades to grab an unexpected forward that dropped.
Gonna go ahead and pick my top 10 in this draft:
Let's see in a few years how I hold up.
- Bedard
- Michkov
- Fantilli
- Carlsson
- Benson
- Ryan Leonard
- Dvorsky
- Moore
- Sale
- Reinbacher
Leonard at 7 and Brindley at 22. What are your picks with the same criteria.Who would you guys take assuming the rest of their predicted draft order holds? i.e. you can't take Michkov at 7 or Ritchie at 22.
I trust Will Smith to save us from aliens on Independence Day more than i Trust him to pan outYou really do not like Will Smith lol
All else being equal, being a RH does matter, if he was clearly BPA, then no.Leonard's fine but at what point do you stop chasing the same architect of player? Another RH too, which I don't think should be much of a consideration at the top, but...
32thoughts on Michkov saying it will be interesting to which teams get to talk to him. Said teams that tried in Russia found it difficult to get to him and that he may want to go to specific teams.

Why? An already difficult situation made more difficult by a prospect that has a list of teams he won't play for. Seems like that would be a pretty good reason to pass on him. The kid ain't Lindros, if he's drafted and refuses to play for the team that drafted him, you're not getting a franchise altering return for him.Passing on Michkov because he has preferred teams would be the worst rationale possible.
If he is the bpa, you take him and get a haul in 3 years if he still doesn't want to play for you.Why?

Would he return a haul though? That assumes 1) three years from now he wants to come to the NHL; 2) he is able to come to the NHL (re: geopolitical issues); and 3) the list of teams he will agree to pay for are willing to give up a haul to take on what could be a risky player who may return to Russia if he doesn't get what he wants in regards to playing time, accolades, etc.If he is the bpa, you take him and get a haul in 3 years if he still doesn't want to play for you.
That's a different story. I was thinking of it more like Lindros saying "do not draft me I won't play there" kind of situation. If he is just saying "I'd prefer to go to teams X, Y, or Z" but he'll play wherever he is drafted, it is far less risky. Still a risk, but not as risky.I'm not sure it is a matter of refusing to play, just a matter of him having preferred teams. Which is simply too bad for him, I'm sure every kid has a team they want to play for.
Michkov wants to play with Ovechkin? Don't care. Bedard probably wants to play with Crosby.
Take the talent, let him be dissapointed on draft night, and I'm sure he'll be over it in 3 years when he wants to come to the NHL.
What in the hell does DeBrincat have to do with Michkov? Did you just pick the first offensively talented small winger (isn't Michkov like 6'?) that popped into your head? Also, Michkov's on a completely different level as a prospect. You blurt out the weirdest shit.Is Michkov really a dominant talent, or the next DeBrincat, who puts up great stats but may never be a factor in the playoffs.
Great skill, but a lot of mixed messages out there.
