Popular Post IBatch Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 10 hours ago, IBatch said: Does anyone think we should take Podz if he slips to us? ISS had him ranked 4th BPA ahead of Cozens and Dach....scouts say he breaks the mould as far as traditional Russians go in that he seeks out and invites physicality and plays the rat a bit too. He’s obliterated international tourneys playing against the best prospects in the world, 8 goals and 11 points in the Hlinka-Gretzky tourney etc... He won’t be available for two years which bites. And like others there is always the risk the KHL will come calling later. On the flip side you’d think Tree and Goldobin would be happy about this. If it meant we have both Tree back and a future star RW for the start of 2021-2022 would it be worth the wait? Almost certainly we won’t see anyone from this draft playing for at least one year, maybe two, probably three. Would be an ideal line-mate for either Horvat or EP. It would undoubtedly solve our top six issues for years. I like Boldy but he’s definitely in a different class. He’s inconsistent and not nearly as physical. He happens to be who I’m hoping for but I can’t deny the BPA between the two has to go to Podz. One scout says this “ if you take Hughes and Kakko out of the mix this kid (Boldy) has probably shown me the next best game...but he’s also shown me the type of game you’d see from a 150 down the list player, the lack of consistency is surprising for a guy with such high level tools.” In other words what player are we actually getting? A top line winger or a third or fourth line fringe NHLer at best? I’m not sure what the best choice is but would still stick with Boldy as he’s a LW...thoughts? Guess I should have just PVRrd the draft and spent time with the family instead...both guys should be good players but Benning definitely took the BPA and can’t fault him for that... 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was one of the only guys here on the Pettersson train from before his draft in a sea of Cody Glass fans. Those same Glass fans are here trashing this pick. I was a Glass fan and believed wholeheartedly Podkolzin would be gone before 10. Don’t lump is all together with people hating this pick. We all have favs. Some handle not getting there favs worse than others. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I checked we're loaded up with middle six players. We need to be adding 1st line talent, and Podkolzin has that potential. A first-line player at #10? You take that. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benning doesn't have a contract so he goes out with a Russian despite their failure developing Goldobin or Tryamkin. Could have had the safe American with all the success college guy well rounded Boldy. But had to make a move outta left field. There's always parking lot justice there Chip 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 2 minutes ago, DeNiro said: How can anyone not like this pick? At number 10 JB is swinging for the fences, and why wouldn't he? We don't need more "safe picks". Last time I checked we're loaded up with middle six players. We need to be adding 1st line talent, and Podkolzin has that potential. All this worry about him being from Russia is silly. There's alot more success stories from Russia than players who flake out. The biggest difference between Russians here is that he already plays a responsible two way game with some edge. Nothing like Goldobin or Shirokov used to play. Green will love his game. Exactly. I wanted a big d*ck pick. But I thought that was Caufield because Podzy wasn't gonna get to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They throw in Tanev to make the deal. Krebs and Newhook still on the board... they were said to be looking to move that pick. Pretty sure the Canucks like both of them, a lot.

Love this pick. This kid will be a lightning rod when he gets here... with Tryamkin. Also shows he did what is right for the team vs trying to save his job with a guy that might be able to step in earlier 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
