I don't know much about Dineen. but it seems and sounds like there's a lot of players especially dmen in the second round to be had. so we could very well come out looking really good to excellent. excellent if we win a top three pick. really good if we draft a damn good forward and then come away with a couple solid picks for dmen in the second round. too bad we only have one second round pick this year.

Derp... Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I prefer the compete level of Ryan Lindgren honestly. Dineen us a good player for sure, but isn't a Typical Benning pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if Anthony Mantha from Detroit is available. I'd take a gamble on him. his stock seems to be dropping a lot over the last little while. haven't heard his name recently. anyways. less than a week to go until draft day. here's hoping the hockey gods favour us this time around. we deserve something good to come to this franchise. been 46 years without a cup.

Yea for sure. Let's hope JB can get another second or late first this year. Trade Edler for Arrizonas Late first and second round pick for example. draft 3oa Puljujärvi 23oa Fabbro 33oa Johannsen 38oa Dineen or 6oa Jost 23oa Fabbro 33oa Johannsen 38oa Dineen something along those lines would make me so happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flickyoursedin Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I think in a perfect world for me would be picking up another 1rst rounder and 2nd rounder with trading Edler to Ottawa or Detroit for a 1rst+ and Hansen for a 2nd+. Then just replace the players with our mountain of cap space with Okposo and Yandle. 2oa Liane 12oa Bean 33oa Johansen 38oa Dahlen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaudette Celly Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Were Zhukenov and Jasek safe picks? How about Neill with the heart issue, and born-deaf Stewart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we take a forward first, then Luke Green. I like how you think. It's a smart approach at least for the first 2 picks. players sound good, both ranked around 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KKnight Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I know Johansen and Dineen happen to be very popular for this pick, wich i dont deny one bit. But, say Max Jones slides with his obvious unpredicatbility, cockiness and suspension. Do you think other GM's would stay away? If he slides i for one, would want that edge on this team. The kid can flat out play and he plays with massive edge to his game. Would definitely make us harder to play against in the future. Backcheck. PK, Hits hard, great shot, Big Body, X-Factor type. He kinda reminds me of Bert in the offensive zone sometimes when he puts the one hand on the stick and flicks it towards the net. P.S. Kind of excited for the draft....

I see Jones as more of a Jamie McGinn than a Todd Bertuzzi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kid is hard to play against and we need more of that on this team going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonecoldstevebernier Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Oddly, with the storm around the lottery, I'm suddenly pretty excited for #33, which is essentially a late first (considering how preference-based the rankings always are around that point in the draft). If we pick a forward at #5, we can grab one of the next tier of defensemen at #33, or vice versa. It sucks that we don't get that immediate impact player but we should come away with two solid prospects who could potentially become part of the next core. As long as we don't pick the next Taylor Ellington, that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derp... Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 If we do Select Juolevi at 5 then we should take a boom pick at 33. Benson, Steel, Abramov, Bitten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now go watch another highlight package Oh you do now. I got to see multiple giants games live aswell as the chl top prospects game with my pals. Now I don't consider myself a scout, but I do have a good eye for talent. Get your head out of your ass and wake up; You're not a scout. You're just another douchebag on the internet who thinks his opinions mean much more than others because you go with your daddy to giants games here and there.
