This is the guy I think we will all wish we would have picked if we don't. I have a really food feeling about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His rating took a hit because of mono, if I'm not mistaken. I think Benning sees his immense talent, and will draft accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugor Hill Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 We need to draft the most skilled forward there is with our 5th. There are lots of good Dmen slotted in the top 10 next draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are right. I'm usually against drafting D in the first round but this is the guy I want. Opps quote the wrong response. Was suppostd to be the one you quoted me on.

combover Posted May 11, 2017 Share Posted May 11, 2017 That would be Great another d man 2-3 years away form even looking NHL ready. Heaven forbid a skilled forward be drafted something this team has desperately needed since before he(benning) got here. Well atleast next year the furthest bennings team will be able to drop will be fourth. Benning will soon (approx 12months) be looking for work.was ranked last among gms for very good reason......he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting the most NHL ready players isn't really high on the priority list. Getting players who will be really good in 3 years is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draft picks: Forwards required good size 200 ft. game good lateral skating bad mofo good shot solid positioning big sack Lmao can just see linden, aqua and JB in the board room with big sack circled on the white board. who was it that said "I checked his groin and it looks good".....or something along those lines.?

I could see dallas goin for a top dman. Since they just got another 1st from Anaheim. I could see avs also goin for dman. Will be interesting though...
