Outsiders Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 There is a few different combinations possible of players that could be available BUF - Power - The obvious you'd think SEA - Beniers - top C available ANA- Guenther - a top line RW that scores, perfect to play with Zegres NJ - Clarke - I think it is too early for NJ to pick Hughes. You don't pick a brother if he isn't BPA, especially in top 10 This is where it gets interesting. I'll do players in order of which player I think they'd pick. I know CLB,DET,SJS scout heavily European players. Clb - Edvinsson/Eklund Det - Wallstedt/Eklund Sjs - Eklund/Wallstedt/MacTavish La - Hughes/MacTavish VAN - Johnson/McTavish We are so close to getting Luke Hughes, the problem is LA is stacked at C with Turcotte,Byfield, and Valardi (all top 12 picks) so they are set down the middle. We need a Defensemen badly so it is disappointing one won't be there when we pick, at least in our range. Johnson is interesting as the cupboard on the left as it is bare after Hoglander. MacTavish is also a option, however, I'm not a fan of more goals then assists in a C. Horvat already is shoot first C, we need playmaking C. Also he isn't a fast skater, which is concerning. At the NHL he won't be able to do a lot of what he did in Junior. I wouldn't mind trading the pick for a young player from another team or moving down and picking up some 2nd rounders. There will be great players available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowtieCanuck Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 If we were in a better spot with our depth I'd love for them to trade up to get Luke but we'll probably end up with at least someone with protential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be great players available. All it would take is one team like Columbus stretching and taking McTavish or Johnson with their pick to throw the whole thing off. Then all of a sudden Detroit takes Edvinsson, San Jose takes Eklund, and LA can’t pass on a goalie so they take Wallstedt. All of a sudden Hughes is there at 9. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBJ does need to replace PLD... that actually seems possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebreh Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Mason McTavish has a hard accurate shot and have a wicked one timer from any angle... reminds me of Draisaitl shot Edited June 3, 2021 by Trebreh 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I want Hughes, I dont see as getting him. I just feel NJD will pick him, if not its gonna be LA. But again, I dont think we need Hughes.

No way Buffalo agrees to that! But yes - if we could make it work from a cap standpoint, and Buffalo was on board with that, then I’d be on board.

appleboy Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I think there will be some surprise picks this year. The Canucks might even have a player or two on their list that will make us go "who" . What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BPA Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Eklund will fall to us. He's listed as 5'10". Smaller guys seems to drop more often than not. He's sounds like a better version of Hogz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
