  1. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=241791
  2. c'mon Stevie, make your pick already.
  3. if you're looking for a pepper mill.
  4. I looked him up. I like those young picks - they can be misleading when they're almost a year younger than some of the guys in the field. he's 10 days from the cutoff - and had a SHL callup at 17 yrs of age...
  5. Jake Bean went for a 2nd....ouch. I guess that helps clarify Francis' e.d. pick / why he valued Geekie more....
  6. another 3.5 hours and they've managed to doddle through (almost) two whole rounds! you're the man, Gary. (I've heard enough Sam Cosentino to last multiple lifetimes).
  7. I can't believe I'm still watching the paint dry.
  8. Refreshing take. CDC doesn't have enough captain one-liners.
  9. I love your 'optimism' Alf - but I'd be shocked if Guenther 'bustaroos'. He not only has talent/gifts - but he seems very well-composed/thoughtful/intelligent - gave a great interview after being drafted. We got a tremendous amount of value for that pick imo - he doesn't need to bust for it to be a solid deal for this team imo.
  10. save the interviews for later, please. the draft is finally picking up some pace - there are current picks/possible tradeups to address
  11. Jersey can suck it though - aint getting Quinn. They just don't have the right assets! Severson McLeod Zacha Smith Sharangovish Bratt 1st 2022 they've sure as hell drafted well - but who is the principal? I wonder what GMJB et al would demand.
  12. we do have a pair of 5ths and 6ths. Benning could probably trade up into the 4th round if he want to spend one of those extra picks.
  13. hockeyprospect had him at 13. you never know who comes and goes with these independent scouting services, but they've been one of the better ones by a good margin over the past half decade imo.
  14. I have no interest in a Hughes Hamonic 'top' pairing personally. If that happens, it was plan 'way down the alphabet' (ie not plan A, B, C, or even D)...default if nothing else worked. I'd take Savard over Hamonic - (I don't want to be too hard on Hamonic, but imo he was/is a placeholder here. Hakanpaa I've always wanted - but wouldn't pencil him into the 'top 4' - and imo you should prioritize Hughes partner over OEL - who could fit well with either Schmidt or Myers - not sure why anyone should assume otherwise.
  15. Schmidt played the right side for us last year - where we have Myers and.........Woo.
  16. I like both the Jets picks. Not surprising - Chevy is a boss.
  17. Would sure be nice if Holtby could land us a pick in the next few rounds. And this won't be a popular take - but I'd deal Pearson for one as well - but not if I were the guy that just re-signed him...so that aint gonna happen.
