I remember when Nonis drafted him he said he thought Nylander was the most skilled player in the draft and their scouting said he didn't play scared.

I think with a draft do over he might go #3 right now behind Ekblad and Draisatl, and ahead of Bennett, Reinhart, Dal Colle, Virtanen, Fleury.

Similarly Rielly right now would be higher than Yakupov, Murray, Galchenyuk and G. Reinhart. So he is like a number 1 overall.

Nonis wasn't all bad.

I agree with everything but possibly being higher than Galchenyuk. I think Galchenyuk has showed me more to be completely honest. That being said D takes a long time to develop.

I agree about Nylander.

After last season, I wouldn't consider Rielly ahead of Galchenyuk just yet.

And the best of that draft year will be Trouba.

Good point.

He'd be #1 so far no question.

Still think down the line it will be Trouba.

Forsberg, Matt Murray, Vasilevskiy, Lindholm, Trouba all drafted 2012, so don't be too quick in having Rielly as #1 in that draft.

and Nylander for me could end up 3rd overall in his draft, but so could Pastrnak, Ehlers, Larkin... or even Fabbri or Honka. It's really too early to say.

Well one thing is for sure, Marner should have been 2nd.

Jesus, what happened to Ottawa last game? Their fans were ready to move onto the Stanley Cup Final after game 4.

Also, Nick Ritchie is a female genitalia. Good on the Preds moving on!

Wrong, Thomas Chabot is the best player in the draft and previous 4 drafts.

They lost game 4.

I think it's a given if they win the cup. No matter how much I think Weber is awesome on the Habs.

I'll just be happy for Subban, never should have been traded.

No Johansen or Fisher...don't like their chances unless Rinne remains a god.

You guys are pretty quick to judge drafts around here.

Is it confirmed Johansen won't come back?

And if they're facing the Pens, injuries really can't be used as an excuse.

Thats because sucky management gave the Leafs the right to draft so high year after yaer.

I think Johansen is shut down for the rest of the playoffs. Todd Cordell told me, so not sure.
