We need to get another elite guy to go with Petey, Boeser, Hughes, and Bo. Those types of players will be there at 10, I hope we get one. Me too. The only time Benning went safe was with OJ who was considered at the time to have the highest floor for the defenseman that draft. It was a mistake in hindsight, he should have gone with Chycrun, or Sergechev or off board with McAvoy. The odds are stacked against OJ right now, and if ceiling was the biggest metric we’d probably have had two years of Sergechev the last couple years... At least he changed his tune the following year and drafted EP. And the next year Hughes and I got to say I’m pretty stoked about Woo too. He was considered in the low 20’s by some and we got him in the second round and he’s a RHD. I hope he repeats what he has done the last two years, really nothing to complain about. Lind and JG might have had underwhelming second years post draft but they are far from done yet, the same way Madden isn’t draft plus one, he had a great year too, doesn’t mean if he falters a bit next year he’s done. It really depends on who’s left when its out turn. A lot of us like Boldy but he might not be available and or not in the plans at all. Benning should have a good draft, and this could be our last lottery pick for a while. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MystifyNCrucify Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I got a feeling benning has his eye on a player ranked late first round and will trade down and get and extra second Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple d taken after him are 2 years ahead in their NHL careers, so he needs to catch up? we really need OJ to be s top four guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes watching Tkatchuk I want to cry, but OJ will still be a decent player eventually. He’s too smart not to be a top 4 Dman. He’s got size too. Just worry about all these injuries.

messier's_elbow Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I’m starting to think Soderstrom might be our guy. He’s already playing with men and he’s a right handed D which we need. How’s his shot on the PP? I like Caufield as well but I’m worried about his skating. If he pans out he could be a 35 goal winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was high on Caufield, but we can’t pick any guy that small, who is not quick or fast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyHarry Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I’m high on Zegras or maybe not. I just noticed his plus minus on team full of players full of super plusses. Jack H +32 Boldy +33 Turcotte +20 Zegras -50 i got theses stats from https://www.tsn.ca/craig-button-s-tsn-hockey-mock-draft-post-lottery-edition-1.1287914 so I don’t know how I feel about Zegras now.

However if someone isn't elite but scores 20-30 then that would surely help if you put it with elites. I mean borderline elite on a 3.5-5mil a season and then D gets a make over, tanev and edler, if they stay, probably wouldn't be around after another 3 seasons that would take to develop and or season what we have but probably JB picks up 2 more, 1 ready and another developing who is already consistant but needs more ice time... think that would do it and see where it goes from there.

Where Caufield is all goals. I really like both. So I’m leaning towards a forward in the first round. But....If we’re not convinced that Jet Woo can be a top 4 RHD... then Soderstrom would be a solid pick also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see an epic Burky type move on the home court draft. We would almost certainly have to give up one of Q.Hughes, Horvat, Petey, or Boeser to move up to #1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
