Keep the faith, wherever we finish:

Hall-Hischier-Kakko

Is our destiny.

We’re winning the lotto outright and taking Kakko.

And then taking Kokkonen with our 1st second round pick.

I'm all for drafting all the Finns.

I feel as long as they finish in the top 5 they're getting a really good player. I feel Hughes, Kakko, Podkolzin, Byram and Cozens are all legit. After that I think it's a little more questionable and you may end up with Zacha or worst. No offense to Zacha who had a good game today.

I was at the game yesterday and gotta say this has to be one of the SOFTEST Devils teams ever. On the forecheck there was no pressure put on the defensemen. You would think the young guys would show some sense of urgency. I had to laugh when the women sitting by me said “Are the Devils allowed to hit back?” her boyfriend just shook his head.

Does th russian factor influence your thoughts on Podkolzin?

Yes, but the Byram might be a better pick at 3 influences my thoughts more.

A touch... my worry is that the difficulty in managing his development will lead him to become a Nichushkin or a Yakupov.
