Yeah. But we need a commish for this.

It would be fun doing a draft list and assigning a team

We have to assign a team and the research behind them

Or we assign picks by position in the first tound

I think we have to assign a team to whomever cdc elects and go from there

Lol, be a good year to do first round draftboard with cdc

Be a good year to develop a draft board

Already been established. I think it is a 300 grand buyout. Someone can correct me.

It would be tempting but I think you are overspending for the third. Depends on the pick valuation and who you are selecting.

I think so. If it was under Trent cull I wouldn't.

Sure, but it has nothing to do with the actual pro league itself. It comes down to coaching in the youth ranks and their emphasis on the game and systems instead of skills or the basics. Swiss prospects tend to come out more behind in development if they stay in Switzerland instead of jumping to the shl, chl etc. I keep thinking that to get good competition for them and actually improve the league itself is that they go the usdp route.

One thing I do like about reinbacher and this is the same with simashev is their composure. They don't get rattled as much like other defensemen if the system breaks down in their own end

It would be closer to dobson then Theodore. His gap control and how he controls his stick in the defensive zone is superb, but he has worts like you or I said. But it worries the hell out of me when we go for need. Just hoping smith or Benson don't hit if we go this route.

While I am not the biggest fan of reinbacher, I do think we might have to take him in the five to seven range cuz he won't be there if we get the isles second. The market for rhd is like lhp in baseball. Absolutely bonkers, even for average players.

He has good gap control and positioning. He can play with a bit of an edge and is not afraid of getting his nose dirty. I love his shot. Yeah, he is definitely worth taking a flyer on.

Yeah, he is not bad still needs a bit of work on the skating, but the stride has improved alot. I like that he committed to Bemidji.

Keep an eye out on Eric pohlkamp. Wjac all star who is putting up some numbers good numbers for an rhd in cedar rapids.

On reinbacher. I think people got to lower the expectations a bit. He really isn't josi or he isn't a physical freak like a Hedman or a seider. A good comparable for him if he absolutely hits is a Noah dobson. What he does well is defence. Reinbacher uses his size and hockey iq well in this category in that he knows how to close the gap very well. He just seems to look big and it kind of intimidates forwards to keep to the outside. He doesn't hit, but like dobson, he uses his stick superbly, in checking opposing players, often making them looking foolish by breaking up the passing lane or just taking the puck away. However, one of my biggest gripes is he is not good along the boards yet in puck battles. Teams generally exploit this on him alot in kloten in that they dump the puck into his corner knowing full well that they can take advantage of him physically and generally win the puck battles. This can be fixed, but he will need to put on more size. Another good thing about him though is his outlet passes on the transition. He is going to give teams nightmares and our forwards quite a few odd man rushes. One thing I would like to see more though, is taking the puck out of the dzone himself more. He doesn't show enough of that cuz he could be quite exceptional if he did. Anyways just some info on what you are getting. Anymore questions just ask.

Neither. Smith is gonna play As a center though.benson is marner. You actually need a rangy center like Danielson to take off the heat

It's is gonna be tough. The whc is gonna be big for Rein and right now, I can see our management group surprising alot of people by picking Barlow cuz of our history.

Will talk about rein tomorrow. I do have some problems with him and the swisssystem in general.

Lol. We shall see. My golf craving is going off right now with full swing and the genesis open. Ask me in a day

I think we can get reinbacher with our second first. I tend not to trust pronman or cosentino cuz they do a flavour of the month ranking. Unless he moves higher on Bob's ranking, we don't use our top 6.

Who says smith or Benson. I can see Barlow being liked by our management. It is gonna be interesting this year

I would go with you on that. As for rhd, livingstone will help plus I like the 2024 class better. I like your bonk idea for our rhd. The more I watch, the more I like
