HF Habs: Official Habs Mock Draft 2018 Edition - Complete

[The Great Weal]

Pretty sure Der Arguchintsev and Nordgren are two of the last good players left.

Until the oilers next pick

 

[NotProkofievian]

Nordgren managed to get himself off my ND list with his U18 performance. He's good value right about now.

 

[sandviper]

I swear man, you literally take the players I would have taken. It was literally Nordgren or my guy. Get out my mind m8.

Ha! I was wanting to grab Ragnarsson, but got beaten to the punch by a couple picks.

Considering how you stole 2 guys I wanted, we'll call it even.

I had Nordgren at #47 on my list, so I'm glad I got him. I only went to 50 players though, so I'm going to have to do some scouting for the remaining rounds though I do have a rough top-20 for rounds 4-7.

[Mrb1p]

The Carolina Hurricanes are proud to select, from the Vancouver Giants in the WHL, center Milos Roman.

Milos is a center with high end skills and top notch vision, we feel hes s forward worthy of a 2nd round selection, he probably fell because of injuries and adaptation time. He has a natural ability to make people around him better and hes both a hard worker and a smart player.

Pmd.

I also have like five players left from my top 40, so shut up.

 

[G0bias]

yea it's getting thin

 

[sandviper]

It is thinning out but there are some interesting boom or bust picks coming though more of the latter.

 

[Habs76]

I've got 2 5ths, a 6th and a 7th left. This is gonna be painful.

Haha, my entire top 52 are now gone.


I thought about Roman but chose Iskhakov instead in the end.

 

[Mrb1p]

Theres a dude in my top 35 still up, you guys are sleeping.

 

[Habs76]

Theres a dude in my top 35 still up, you guys are sleeping.

U wanna give us a hint?

 

[Mrb1p]

U wanna give us a hint?

Hes 6'1

 

[Habs76]

Hes 6'1

that narrows it down too, there's only so many possibilities, but you probably have different measurements

 

[sandviper]

I got 3 guys in my top-50 left, but I am sure two will be gone before the end of the round, #49 and #50 in fact. My #48 I think may duck under the radar to the 4th round.

 

[Andrei79]

Hes 6'1

Wanna rant about it ?

 

[Mrb1p]

Wanna rant about it ?

Take another guess, the next time you fail Ill Leeroy cut you.

 

[Habs76]

Take another guess, the next time you fail Ill Leeroy cut you.

3 Leeroy cut you?

 

[Mrb1p]

3 Leeroy cut you?

Something like that

 

[The Great Weal]

Hes 6'1

Yeah I know who it is

 

[Mrb1p]

Ive tried too hard with that one

 

[The Great Weal]

Ive tried too hard with that one

Defenseman right?

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Has @L4br3cqu3 been PM'd?

 

[Andrei79]

Ive tried too hard with that one

lol, i like it.

Was disapointed in his playoffs, I was hoping I could get a better look there. But he's young and that was a powerhouse. Didn't know anyone here liked him that much. But if you have him that high, I'll check out more games.

 

[L4br3cqu3]

With the 74th selection, Arizona Coyotes are proud to select, from Saginaw Spirit, forward Blade Jenkins

"There’s a lot to like about the things Jenkins brings to the table. He has decent size and is a pest to play against, especially down low. He is as equally good a scorer as he is a playmaker. His high IQ allows him to make the correct play in order to drive the offense. While his offensive instincts are above average, his skating and play away from the puck are works in progress. The skating has improved but will be a point of emphasis for him at the next level. Needs to get better positioning, defensively. In live viewings of him, his lack of positioning cost his team some goals." Blade Jenkins - 2018 NHL Draft Prospect Profile

Has @L4br3cqu3 been PM'd?
