TSN Hockey Insiders Chris Johnston, Pierre LeBrun and Darren Dreger join host Gino Reda to discuss the biggest names available on TSN’s Trade Bait Board heading into next week’s draft, why the door might not be closed for Ryan O’Reilly to return to the Leafs and where Matvei Michkov might go...

(referring to where Michkov will get drafted)
"Talking to sources around the league, a lot of people seem to think he’s going to fall somewhere in the five-to-eight range. That starts with the Montreal Canadiens with the fifth pick, Arizona at six, Philadelphia at seven and Washington at eight. So, it will be up to those teams, starting with the Canadiens of course, to decide what they’re going to do with Michkov, whether they take maybe a safer prospect or go for the talent."
Has anything been floated that San Jose is passing on him? Or are we still just in silly season for conjecture?
