Growing up, @Pavel_Zacha idolized @68Jagr and would watch his highlights after every game. #NHLCombine

Barzal is dropping.

It's not so much he's dropping, he just hasn't gone up the way some thought he could. He'll probably go here.

It's almost depressing how chalk this draft has been...I can't opine about how the draft's so unpredictable when people act like they know what the top five is going to be three months before the draft, when it actually 'does' stay the same

Did anyone see the interview with Zacha?

Did he seem happy? What did he say?

NBC didn't do one.

Edit: But Twitter and stuff from the combine says he is very happy to be here.

 

[Bleedred]

Sharks should take Barzal.

Or DW will be an idiot and trade the pick for Talbot.

 

[devilsblood]

With Zacha snatched up its time to focus on 36 and 41. Wouldn't mind exploring trading up back into the mid 1st otherwise I think we can get 2 real nice players tomorrow.

I'm all for trading back into the first.

 

[NJDevs26]

Zacha's agent is Patrik Stefan HAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHA

THAT Patrick Stefan? Well you learn something every day

 

[MadDevil]

Zacha was on NHL radio. Said he had really good interviews with the Devils and was hoping they'd pick him when they were up.

 

[Blender]

did they not interview Shero/Zacha?

I don't think they did a Larsson interview in 2011 either.

 

[gmangs]

Honestly I think Zacha was the least polarizing guy of anyone they could have picked. People are just depressed we couldn't get Marner/Strome but honestly if you look at Zacha in a vaccum without worrying about who everyone else got I'm fine with the pick.

I just wish they could have packaged the pick and a Dman for a proven goal scorer.

 

[HenriquesJawLine]

In that TG interview it really sounded like he wanted to be a Devil, and look at that smile on stage. Really happy with this

Yes, I think Boeser would be a great pickup.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Thank the lord Talbot is still a Ranger right now.

 

[devilsblood]

Dang Lucic to Kings? That will be a tough team to play against.

 

[SeidoN]

Zacha was on NHL radio. Said he had really good interviews with the Devils and was hoping they'd pick him when they were up.

sounds like alot of mutual interest. good sign.

 

[JimEIV]

Crouse?

 

[Bleedred]

LOL DeBoer just walked past Conte and Conte looked his way.

DeBoer was cut off the screen by that point though. I wonder if he said anything to him.

 

[SeidoN]

Meier. interesting. #CrouseWatch

 

[NJDevs26]

Meier over Barzal...finally a slight curve

And people were complaining we'd take him six, he didn't go too much later than that

 

[Richer's Ghost]

And there goes the guy I wanted. Didn't think he would go THIS early though.

 

[Kensu]

so does Barzal drop?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Crouse dropping, I thought Barzal would of gone by now.

 

[MadDevil]

Watch Crouse drop to Boston.

 

[Andre Palot]

Sharks doing what I thought we would of done

 

[NJDevs26]

Thank the lord Talbot is still a Ranger right now.

The night's young...but yeah maybe Sather's back in win-now mode and decided to hang onto him. Or all the interest was media hot air.
