Schafer Number 1 for sure. Future # 1 d.
If I had 2nd pick, Misa. Turn him into a Center.
Even though this draft is not deep, I would not want my 2nd pick to beyond 20. Mrtka is a guy I would move up for.

Friedman says Bettman is not a fan of the decentralized draft. But he allowed it to happen because the clubs really wanted it. If it goes badly, they might go back to a the standard setup next year.

"And remember, the clubs asked for this," Bettman said. "I wasn't looking for any more exposure. I have more than enough. But this is what the clubs told us they wanted, and we're going to try it. And we'll see after this year whether or not everybody likes it better."

Really lame tbh.

Guess it is partially because they cant have as many people as they want and all of their tools available easily. But for me? That is kind of silly as such a big event that people are actually excited for.

Btw...

Frondell is now at over 60% CF and xGF on the season.

And over 70% CF and xGF in 7/10 of his last 10 Allsvenskan games.

Eklund is actually pretty similar on the season.

1st and 2nd on the team in Corsi.
3rd and 4th on the team in xGF. (after Kruger and Thoresen.)

But have you heard about that big boy from the Wheat Kings. Can’t teach size son.

I’ll weep if they draft McQueen. Another Humpty Dumpty.
