Early in the season i had Vilardi top 3.
Mittelstadt has passed him & Glass is making a strong push also.
Necas is real interesting pick for someone.

I'd like to see us blow it up more & get another 1st.
Depending on who is traded & where that pick ends up i like Petterson Foote.
If any of our prospects eg Winger is moved then Tippett looks very good.
Is JB motivated to deal or package up players for something big?

There is going to be some really solid players available at 30-35 as well. I had forgotten how exciting 2nd round picks can be.

It wasn't the right pick, you can't draft based on need. The NHL draft is difficult enough to evaluate to begin with, why limit yourself by only targeting specific positions/styles and make it even harder?


I'd rather be overloaded with quality young skilled wingers and then trade one of them if need be to fill a position of weakness. Not like teams wouldn't be lining up for a Ehlers/Nylander/Tkachuk.

- Nucker101



It was the right pick . Virtanen was suppose to be Tkachuk . We get blasted for not drafting Tkachuk and we get blasted for drafting what we think is Tkachuk. People here just love to complain. You can't win

In the event JV doesn't turn out BFD. Hand is dealt, you move on.

I'd have to say most posters on here would take a premium D anytime one was available.

Nice graphic.

It seems Nuck4U has vanished, would Marwood put out a missing persons report if he went missing?

We don't really need any wingers compared to Big hard C and quick hard shooting D.
If there are only winners ranked where we draft I hope we can trade down to get both the next ranked D/C and pick up a third or second as well.

Duchene @26yrs fits in to our design.
I highly doubt we will be players in that deal but i'd try.

People who watched them knew they were different animals. Virtanen had a man's body with great speed so a lot of his goals/chances came from just being stronger/faster than most CHL'ers. His play style was always Booth/Kreider like, come down the wing and try to make something happen. Never had the best offensive game when his team has sustained offensive zone time. Not a guy who made his linemates look better than they are, a lot of independent play off of the rush. Powerful shooter who thrives in space.

Tkachuk isn't a great skater at all, is a very good playmaker, better in the cycle game and can create offense in other ways besides off the rush. Not a pure sniper, but very good at creating offense in tighter space for both himself and teammates.

You cant just look at every winger who plays physical in the same way, outside of their physicality, they were very different players.

Yeah, if he was in the CHL and had a North American passport, he'd get more hype.
- Nucker101

Could work well for us. Also i like to advantage of AHL if he is not ready for NHL. his 167lbs says his body is not matured enough for it.
