I think you are. Best centre in a draft super weak at centre is like being the best centre on the Habs; a default position more than a statement of quality.

You're still getting info from the draft reports from 6-8 months ago. He was 17, playing vs actual professional men, not kids. Hes grown a decent amount and when playing kids his age like all, the others in the draft, he dominated them. It was a good pick.

I think Detroit wants a defenseman.

Has a forward under a PPG in the CHL ever been selected that high?
- AdamFrench


I would guess no but I'm not 100%... I was hoping the Habs would swing a deal at 11-17 to grab him

Who is the big faller? Bouchard? Boqvist? Dobson?

It's not. Sure, he had a late-season and U18 tournament surge, but his stock also improved a lot when Montreal got the 3rd pick. I had him 7-10.

I'm good with it too. Looks like they are going to burn some years on the vets or maybe, but doubt it, flip them for youth.

Great opportunity for Bergevin to make a trade and pick a faller.

All I know is there are probably a few happy teams from 8-10 right now.

thank you bergeidiot. in 3-4 years we'll have kotkaniemi and poehling as our #1 and #2 centres. you will be long gone by then. all you did tonight is kick the can to the next franco-idiot that will carry the sad torch from you. what fuking bumhole's bergevin and Molson's legacy have been.

This is turning into an entertaining draft.

Likely a lot of teams are happy they did not trade up at this point.

Starting to think Pacioretty won't be moved...
