How would that happen?
- Phenom

Edmonton - Yakupov
Columbus - Galchenyuk
Montreal - Grigorenko
New York - Murray
Minnesota - Forsberg
Anaheim - Dumba
Toronto - Faksa (plus 46th and 68th)

Use 35th or 46th and 68th to move up to the mid 20s. Pick Gaunce or Laughton.

Not bad, The more I look into it the more I want Grigorenko though. he is already 200 pounds 6 3

They can get a goalie with 35th or 48th. No need to work all the way up into the 1st round to waste it on a goalie.

1st line potential, and all this negative stuff people are saying about him is pretty unfair to the kid.

So is Johnny Lombardi, the local loneshark enforcer, but I don't want to draft him either!

If we get Shultz I hope we grad a forward at #5, Grabbing Shults is like a free first rounder - he would be projected to go in the top 20 if he was eligiable for drafting this year.

- Unholy_Goalie

Have you watched him play at all?

- Unholy_Goalie

Gotta love that ridiculous blog over at the Oilers site, with them saying Gardiner and the 5th, for the 1st. And of course, they have Schultz in the bank, as well. Yeah, we'll trade you the 5th, Gardiner and Schultz for that Russian primadonna Yakupov. Dream Oilpatch dolls, dream!

Lol Grigerenko is physically the most NHL ready, not that I'd put him in right away.

He plays when he wants to. Not worth the Russian factor.

I doubt you have ever watched him play or even read a scouting report on him.

He has Habs, written all over him. Playing in the Q is the next best thing to drafting a French speaking player! That is what makes Champions, according to Montreal management. I'm sure that Grigorenko learned some French, while in the Q, so the press would be happy. Since the media, in Quebec, drives that wild Galic spirit, that strives for success.............by rioting!

Yeah you know what he is definitely going to be better.

Edit: Why stop there? I seen a goal in there that reminded me of Gretzky

Gatineau has all of those English speaking civil servants that learned French so they could suck off of the government tits!

This is how I see the top ten going.



Edmonton makes a trade with NYI.

Edmonton receives 4th overall pick and Ryan Strome.
NYI receives 1st overall pick and David Musil.


NYI drafts Nail Yakupov 1st overall.
Columbus drafts Alex Galchenyuk 2nd overall
Montreal drafts Mikail Grigorenko 3rd overall
Edmonton drafts Ryan Murray 4th overall

Toronto makes a trades with Tampa Bay
Toronto receives the 10th pick, 37th pick and Brett Connolly
Tampa Bay receives the 5th overall pick, Cody Franson and James Reimer

Tampa Bay drafts Radek Faksa 5th overall
Anaheim drafts Matt Dumba 6th overall
Wild drafts Filip Forsberg 7th overall
Carolina drafts Teuvo Teravainen 8th overall
Winnipeg drafts Morgan Rielly 9th overall
Toronto drafts Griffin Reinhart 10th overall.

Actually I think that is Ottawa you're thinking about.

No way Tampa Bay does that. Giving up a 2nd round pick AND Connolly to move up 5 spots? And all of that effort to take Faksa who they could probably get at 7th if they moved up 3 spots instead of 5? Plus, Connolly isn't even a center and neither is Reinhart.
