[WinterLion]

Silayev or trade down!

 

[Kobe Armstrong]

Tij or Sennecke but it is worst case scenario if we won't draft a LHD BPA

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Trade up

 

[Benstheman]

I would draft Dickinson Tij or Sennecke but I think Habs will go Helenius.

 

[Goldthorpe]

If Demidov and Lindstrom are off the board at 5th, I consider this worst case scenario and try to trade down for a team who wants Dickinson or Silayev (which shouldn't be difficult) and pick one of Iginla or Sennecke a bit latter.

Another draft thread!!!

 

[TT1]

ffs HF columbus, this better not happen

worst case scenario

 

[Vachon23]

Since we need to go with a forward here, Tij Iginla have my vote

 

[Mrb1p]

Tij time

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Iginla.

Definitely hoping for one of Demidov or Lindstrom to drop to us.

 

[FrankMTL]

Went with Iginla, but would be fine with Sennecke or Catton in this scenario.

 

[Treb]

Another draft thread!!!

This one is an interboard mock draft, they make a thread in every team boards one after the other to do the first round of the draft. This is something we do on HF every year.

It is unrelated to all the other draft threads.

 

[habsterr]

Worst-case scenario here. No Demidov, Lindstrom, or Levshunov are available at 5.

 

[Deebs]

Iggy

 

[overlords]

Another draft thread!!!

 

[WeThreeKings]

Luckily GMs value defenseman more than fans so we should be getting Lindstrom

 

[Mrb1p]

It's not a worst case if Iggy = Lindstrom

 

[Legend123]

BPA Buium

 

[Gravity]

If we don't get Demidov/Lindstrom/Catton, this draft/tank year is a waste for me. We really needed Celebrini/Demidov.

 

[Mrb1p]

If we don't get Demidov/Lindstrom/Catton, this draft/tank year is a waste for me. We really needed Celebrini/Demidov.

It's only a wasted year because they big brained out of Michkov and Benson last year.

Michkov/Benson and Levshunov/Dickinson and we're built forever.

it’s interesting I’ve had a couple of people state that Mitch Marner’s game is similar to Demidov. I have never watched Demidov live (I’d welcome anyone who has) and Marner gets a lot of crap for his play recently however he has consistently put above average stats on the board. I’m not a fan of MM but I’d describe him as a creative perimeter player who shy’s away from contact while producing on the pp, pk & even strength. Is Demidov head and shoulders better than MM, I’ve read scouting reports describing Demidov as a perimeter player that’s not physically engaged?
Cheers.

I have to wonder... Why is Jiricek on the poll at all? I've never seen him ranked higher than 15 all season.

 

[Canadienna]

Would be hard to pass on a 6'7 Dman with upside. I chose Iginla because that's what I think MTL would do in this scenario, but personally I would probably take Silayev or trade down. Unless of course they really like one of the F.

 

[HuGort]

Ignila
