oh well. at least we have lou to fix another lottery for us.

Bouchard seems to be falling in many rankings....
- chompsey

I can't think of why really other then the Liljegren affect. Which Bouchard from what i've seen and heard is a much better defender and even probably has more Offence then Liljegren.

488 Pontus Englund LHD Timra J20 Superelit L 7/15/00 6’3 207
Ranked #89 by NHL CENTRAL SCOUTING (EU Skaters)

394 Luke Henman C Blainville-Boisbriand QMJHL L 4/29/00 6’0 148
Ranked #83 by NHL CENTRAL SCOUTING (NA Skaters)

267 Luka Burzan C Brandon WHL L 1/7/00 6’0 185
Ranked #91 by NHL CENTRAL SCOUTING (NA Skaters)

Slight difference in these compared to Central scouting. I only highlight these 3 because they made my list of "acceptable" players Van is allowed to draft.

lol yea, I find it easier to just have a shortlist of prospect you like after the first round.

It is another site that tries to get attention by making some outrageous prediction, like Svech before Dahlin.
These rankings have many of the defenseman that i have slotted in mid-1st to high 2nd, in the mid 2nd and beyond.
Either i overrate defenseman or these guys underrate them.

This is the first year I've just made a shortlist. I've always tried to guess for 2 rounds who's picking who. For later rounds who might still be there, that Van would take.

Shortlist just easier

I have been watching a fair bit of tape on this Benoit-Olivier Groulx, he is pretty impressive.
Might be able too get him in 2nd.
I like about 10 guys in the 2nd, hopefully Benning can fetch us a couple of those picks.

I’m at the clubhouse at Mountain Shadows draining pints at the moment. Pretty girls and a great atmosphere. Been here? I didn’t realize it’s a par 3 course but no regrets! It’s awesome. Holes range from 70-200 yards. Spectacular scenery. In paradise valley. Heading to Sedona in the am and then the Grand Canyon

To be fair one gets to play in the West, where an expansion team ran right through them. The other? Not as fortunate.

But I concur.

i figure you guys are just messing around but laine was frustratingly awful to watch against vegas. coasting constantly, reminds me of early ovi but less explosive stride

And with his first pick he....
