Watched Nolan Patrick play the pats tonight in regina and was not impressed. Was a ghost for most of the game except for the odd shift. Mostly saw him floating around too high in his own end very lackadaisically. Looked slow especially compared to guys on regina like wagner brooks and steel. When nothing was happening for him started pouting and feeding into guys on the other team trying to get under his skin. Was lucky to not get called for swinging his stick around. Basically looked like a lazy non factor with a bad attitude. It's a bad year for the Avs to be at the bottom of the standings.

Interesting, but that doesnt sound too much like him based on all the scouting reports out on him. Maybe just an off game or still catching up coming back from his injury.

He still is the best pick out there, Nico is good but hes not 1st overall good, he would just be another Top 5 pick in any other draft year

Hopefully. He obviously can't be back in 100% game shape after being off for so long. He did throw a few nice passes out there but besides that next to nothing. It was what seemed like laziness to me that stuck out the most. Gliding around for most of the game.

they always say hes a cerebral player, not flashy at all and knows where to be without the puck. Less Toews and more Leon Draisaitl in his game.

I wouldnt trade the 1st overall if we get it. Patrick would be a solid pick and gives the Avs way more options roster and trade wise if hes in the fold.

Mack, Patrick, Jost, Compher is your depth down the middle. That gives them the option of looking at moving duchene or if the real isnt there, converting him to Wing, or putting Patrick to Wing (be plays RW as well) for the short term.

that wouldnt get the job done, Islanders arent rebuilding and have a way better prospect pool to help get them out of their mess than the Avs.

Any other "normal" season and I would have come away from that game not feeling TOO badly.

That was a game (as many do) that hinged on couple of youthful mistakes.

I definitely want to see Martin again soon. Talk about being thrown directly into the fire, and for the most part, he looked solid.

Maybe (with the injuries) we can give some of the other prospects a chance to get their feet wet as well.

As dismal as this season has been it would be nice to have a chance to get a peek at the future.

This was being nice...this trade is worse for the Isles than most "Avs" trades people come in here posting.
