A lot of buzz around Buium right now. I don’t mind that at all. Sets us up at LD for 10 years
Our new logi will look great on the draft board

I genuinely find all the prospects listed here, to be very intriguing in their own right. Silayev has been the guy all along (picked him fourth overall back in our first mock) and I'm sticking with him as the prospect I want the most. But I'm honestly not going to be disappointed at all with any of these names, if Madden and Co decide they have reason to rate them above the rest. I don't think there's one perfect answer here that is worth tripling down on emotionally, we'll see how it all turns out five or ten years down the line.
Doing my best to read between the lines, based on PV's comments and our scouting staff's prior tendencies, my best guess is one of the two Russians or Dickinson.

Looking forward to being at my first and the last draft in the current format. Gonna be going in the Mighty Ducks vintage replica jersey I just picked up earlier this year.

The closer we get to the draft the less I care about which player we pick. I’m trusting the scouts and whoever they pick I’ll see as the BPA until that’s proven wrong. First time in a long time I don’t have a clear cut favorite going into draft day. Still nervous about it though… more curious to see what happens after our first pick.

I'm just wary of choosing tools over sense. It worries me with levshunov, it worries me with silayev, it worries me with dickinson, it worries me with lindstrom.

I am good with most of our possibilities. Will trust the scouts and what they have watched and looked into.
Demidov
Levshunov
Silayev
Buium
Lindstrom
But I personally have one scared option which would be Dickinson being taken at 3. Just happens to be at the end of my list of top defensemen for this draft

I only have one wish for this draft:
No Silayev
Forward is the pressing need, best player is Lindstrom or Demidov. Sennecke has potential but the reach is a little much for my taste. RDs are not available at the top this year.
I don't trust Levshunov but then again I feel the whole D crop is overrated, Buium or Dickinson will become good defensemen if they land in good environments. Probably not in on any russians and probably no LDs. C is not a need but forwards can always move around.
This year I don't like nearly as many players as last year.
Last year I thought Pitre could be our pick, didn't see Myatovic coming, but like most I thought we would be going Fanta. A year later the pick looks like it was probably the right pick and I must say that is an extremely impressive selection going against consensus.

Just placed some big bets on Silayev and Buium, plus money as long as it’s one of those 2. (Please be one of those two)

If they go forward I'd go with Sennecke over Lindstrom but Demidov over both of them, the Ducks have already seen year to year their top under 25 players spending too much time being injured with the musical chairs IR that was last season when one of McTavish/Carlsson/Zegras/Mintyukov was injured. Lindstrom already being injury prone before he's drafted is not a good mix with Anaheim.
I don't want a prospect who's gonna spend too much time on IR.

Placed a bet this morning at +800, it’s now at +700
Silayev went from +140 to +150
Edit: this was at DraftKings, ESPNBet has Buium at +500, not sure what he was at earlier

Oh and I think the Ducks would know more on Buium than any other team because they've probably known of him as a prospect well before other teams. Kid probably grew up with Niedermayer Duck jerseys.

Buium is such a Madden pick that you can’t help but feel excited if that’s who they go with.
