finally

Assuming Dahlin, Svechnikov, K-niemi, Zadina, Tkachuk and Hughes are gone.

Dobson
Bouchard
Wahlstrom

If Dobson gone, I take Bouchard over Hughes. Why? Size, right side, canon and best passer.

Who's the source of the bad Hughes interview rumour?

Biggest disappointment pick for me would be Boqvist.
- Eldebrink

Why would anyone take Bouchard? The guy can't turn fast enough to stop the opposition. He's a volume shooter who will put up 30 assists a year and 5goals. Guess whos another high draft pick with a cannon who can't accelerate fast? Gudbrandson and Cam Barker.

Take wahlstrom or bodqvist or dobson(in that order), go for a home run instead of continually bunting for the safe single.
You and don can keep playing it safe, I'm taking the condom off when I touch myself....

Just backreading but lol at interviews being so crucial to draft rankings.


It’s basically a job interview, I doubt Jake Virtanen told Linden and Benning about all the house parties he gets (frank)ed up at and all the time he spends on IG DM’ing girls.

I doubt Hughes or every other non-retarded prospect did either

Lol- you have outdone yourself. 25 goals in your draft season = 5 in the NHL. And nice comparison between EG and Bouchard. You have nailed it. Your scouting is top notch fella

As much as i want a Dman Wahlstrom might be more valuable than any of those D. If JB thinks he can be Boeser 2.0 he better take him.
- NorthNuck

If the brass feels he is the BPA, then absolutely. IMO, we are in need of a puck moving RD that can run a PP. Dobson has a ton of upside possibly 2 or 3. Not flashy but does everything well. Unless it's Tkachuk I'll take the D in this case.

I hope in your after life you are stuck in a studio apartment without windows and Kesler posters and are forced to watch Granlund and pouliot highlights 24/7

Half of this sounds great

I only just finished going through all the comments in the last blog, now i have another 250 comments too read.
FYI- your survey equipment is called a transom, not a transit, please focus on reality, not some dream of , Boyqvist, becoming the next Karlson!😀

Since you're wrong about the first bold, I'll have to assume that you're wrong about the second bold.

What if Hughes “said I won’t play in Vancouver.” Or I demand to be captain right away. If the interview was enough to piss off a bunch of softies that we have in the front office he must be a little sh!t. (frank) him, we don’t need an entitled smurf
- CanuckDon

Hughes not weighing in at the combine and a bad interview may well say this kid is trying his hardest to slip away from the bottom feeders since he's not going top 3 most likely.

Well said Reuby 👋🏻
- CanuckDon

his facts are wrong..... I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic, you just missed the wrongness of it.... and agreed with it.

I bet he’s afraid of ending up in Ottawa especially



Maybe he’s “tanking” for Detroit or Chicago

Wonder if whoever Ottawa drafts pulls a Lindros and forces them to trade him to another team like the Nordiques did (worked out great for both them when they moved to Denver and Philly sure didn't complain themselves over it).

My boat has a Transom with a Transducer on it. My tool shed has a Transit in it.... unless one of the Transients around here stole it....

I could only see it if it’s an American kid(Hughes/Tkachuk)

allegedly in Larkin's draft year some team passed on him because he wouldn't commit to the OHL in his interview. some teams have weird poop like that they deem crucial

apparently this isn't the most uncommon thing if teams don't particularly like the college program they're in. less so the CHL. can go either way with European kids. I think it was... U Mich about 10 years ago that just about every NHL team hated because the coach taught them how to win in college and not in the NHL or whatever. U mich players still got drafted, but I think it was Marek saying that there were some teams taking a pass on them when they wouldn't commit to Major Junior.

Even then I can't see some draftee rocking the hockey culture boat. Maybe if it was a first overall or a kid that already had the cache to flex, but I don't see those kids at that level

- CanuckDon

You actually see bouchard netting 20 goals?

I like Dobson, better odds then boqvist.

I reiterate from last blog.

15 percent chance at a Karlsson 50 percent chance not being a nhl player

Vs.

5percent chance being a number 2, 20 percent chance not being an NHL player

Who do you take?
Give me your percentages ?

Yeah, but remember, he didn't even KNOW where Vancouver was at the time, and we didn't have a ghetto he could be the king of.

Not to mention the Grizzlies absolutely SUCKED donkey balls as an organization top to bottom (thanks Stern and the rest of the NBA)

Unreal

I imagine its less so now. And JB is a USHL/college guy but you never know.

I just find it interesting when you get tidbits about seemingly innocuous things that teams consider important.

Apparently almost every draft interview this year involved questions about Fortnite. I would have killed to be a fly on the wall as these old ass grampas try to ask a teenager questions about video games.

One reporter mentioned that a team was asking players whether they play video games aggressively or if they're "a camper". I (frank)ing died.

Yeah, it’d be a longshot but for the first time in forever I could see it happening.

It’d probably be more lowkey though. Like a Kyle Turris thing where he signs and plays but eventually wants out
