Not with Nucks. Anyway, that was a different era the equivalent is closer to a 20 goal scorer now. Mogilny, as in enigmatic and not showing up consistently to produce.

Nedved was talked up as being Gretzky like. Turns out he was a fan getting his stick signed after a playoff loss to Kings. That's as close at it got.

I can't see you guys taking a D if you have a top 4 pick. Gotta get some high end offense.
- DuranDuran


I will be disappointed if we take a defenseman in top 4. If we are at 5 maybe, but still some decent forwards available at that spot.
Colorado, Arizona and New Jersey desperately need defenseman in their system so I wouldn't be surprised to see them take a defenseman with their pick or trade down as they can probably get the guy they want at 7 or 8.

Of course he wasn't. That was my point. The hype and let down comparison. Do you not remember the excitement then on Nedved? The crazy comparisons to his game. Much bigger then RNH. Same result though. Just saying what they were talking up prior to draft. I wish they didn't take the shiny toy and picked Jager. Even Nedved said at the draft he was better then him.

Nor do I. I posted my preference for defenseman with our pick in my previous post, just not top4.

In this particular draft they'd be better off taking a center imo, none of the kids on D are worthy of a top five pick. Nucks desperately need a talented center.

Have you ever seen Markus Phillips of Owen Sound? He had a pretty good season and at 6' 207 has good size. Only scouting report i've seen is that he has really good speed. Elusive and shooting accuracy sucks. Haven't seen one from this season. Ranked 50th in NA.

Never seen him but read that he is a solid player, sounded something like Tanev but a bit of offense.

Exactly. Powerhouse teams all tend to have a strong D
