FlyLow_ Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Ah yes, the day when the slight optimism I have for getting the player I want most (edvinsson) is crushed. Can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where you got that one. He is very mobile. The only thing negative that I have found is that he needs to improve his strength and top speed. Watch his videos. His mobility is top notch.

Pronman from the Atheltic claims scouts are hesitant because he has “average foot speed”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be hesitant with any jump that high in a short amount of time. Dont get me wrong I’d be happy with the pick, just hoping for a higher impact player at 9.

NucksIn50 Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 My expectations are simple we will pick in the top 10 that is my only guarantee. I am a betting man so I did the draft lottery simulator 10 times and we picked 1st overall 3 x 9th 3x and 10th 4x. So I’ll throw $100 down on 1st overall . Regardless we have JB picking and we will get a top player in this draft maybe even the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will all be a year or two away. Even Benier has strength issues and will need a year or two. Powers scares me. I worry he is a Jake type. It will be a year for fancy stats. Even Jim said they would play a big role this year. I like what McTavish could become. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohmy Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I mean would I like a top 2 pick? Of course, we'd be silly to think otherwise. Will there be a gem at 9 or 10 that falls to us? I'd say we can almost guarantee it this year and I'm confident we will grab one of them. I'll be happy no matter what. I'm sure the Leafs losing has something to do with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumb Nuck Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 With their first pick the Vancouver Canucks choose to retire Green. Sorry, dreaming again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googlie Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) So I ran the simulator 10 times ( I'll do more, ofc) ... Twice at 2 Six at 9 One 10 One 11 (Interestingly, at both my 2's, Seattle drew 1st) Woohoo - on the 21st .. .
