It means nothing that others think the way you do, it certainly doesn't make you right... The entire NBA believes the earth is flat, does that make them any less wrong?

Solid argument. From now on, whenever I'm uncertain about anything, I'll reach out to you for confirmation on the official "right" answer

What if the Preds were to trade Subban.... To Toronto??

I don't have that kind of time, by the sounds of it you're a few laps short of a race so I'm sure you got all kinds of brain dead ideas floating around up there!

Might as well grab all 3 1st if that's the case... And package the 2 late ones for a pick in the mid teens

According to my crazy friend that spends countless hours following the youngsters, Bouchard is too slow to be a top 5

Dobson's stock is rising too.

God dammit, Adam French might be right!

This is terrible news!

Looks like a guy who wants to be edgy. Merkley is end of 1st, begining of 2nd round in most lists I've seen.

Merkley is all over the place

no Bouchard and Dobson in the top 10

Crazy isn't it? I don't think they should grab Dobson 3rd but I'm pretty sure he'll go in the top 10

You guys are such whiners

Go ahead....continue acting like I'm the first person in history to ever claim that Galchenyuk isn't living up to expectations
- AxlRose91

Will do.

Will do.

Yeah, that's insane.

I thought I was high on Bokk. Jesus (frank)ing Christ.

Being high on Bokk usually mean you think he'll get drafted in the first round.

Top 10? Give me a break.

Bokk is one of the most interesting players for me in this draft class. I watched him about as much as any prospect, going though about half his games this season. Every game I saw of him, there were 1 or 2 instances that left you marveled. He shows you glimpses of elite talent and someone who can be an impact winger. Bokk’s pure puck skill is up there with the very best in the draft class. He dances with the puck on his stick and can make flashy dekes seem routine. His hands also translate to making him one of the best pick pockets (of pucks) I’ve seen at his age. He’s a good playmaker who looks to makes plays to his teammates and has the patience and skill to hold the puck and let an option develop. He can finish chances, too, and when he’s played internationally, the German team has looked to him as a trigger man. His skating is fine, not explosive, but average. The main criticism of him is off the puck. He’s not a very intense physical player nor is he great defensively. His production hasn’t been amazing this season in Sweden’s junior circuit, but he didn’t play much high-level hockey until 17, so his game needs some maturing. I rank him this high despite low production because of his immense talent, no character flags, and I could see his development spiking as he continues to play high-level hockey.

Germany’s U20 coach Christian Kunast said: “He is a technical, offensive player who could be a goal scorer in the NHL, as well.”

Let's just go with Zadina, it's easy to spell, iy has a Z in it which is pretty cool. Pierre Houde won't try to prononce it funky. It just makes sense all around

Wait until he teaches all of us it's actually pronounced Vadina!

Could he go from 1 to 2 goal per season?

I want Kotkaniemi for that reason
