Fair points. You could make the case that Krebs is just as likely to slip to 30 as Veleno was. I just feel like Krebs has (had?) built up a bit more momentum and buzz in the lead-up to his respective draft. He made a pretty big statement at the U18 WJC. Feels like he is/was peaking at just the right time.

He'd been rising lately. Still a fair chance of going top 10, and I'd be shocked if he falls out of the top 20. I'd still give him serious consideration at 6 if Turcotte, Zegras, and Byram are gone.

Give me the GM keys. This s*** is easy. Move over, Stevie.

A RIGHT-HANDED Tatar!!!

Trouba-McIsaac Hronek-Cholowski Bowey-Broberg Lindstrom All we need to do is start shedding Kronwall, Green, Daley, Ericsson, and DeKeyser. Not against keeping DeKeyser around at 4 mil per or less. But 5+ is too much for 15 pts a year.

The Pretty Boy: Trevor Zegras Can only buy his shampoo/conditioner brand in a salon Avoids hits with ease, never gets injured All the newest/best hockey equipment Great passer, loves to work together and see his teammates score If he doesn't have anything nice to say, he doesn't say anything at all Unironically calls his GF "bae" Genuinely listens when you talk to him Says a short prayer before each game Eats healthy and maintains a balanced diet Cries when he thinks about how much he loves his "bae" Generally a nice guy Doesn't sweat, his hockey bag smells like febreeze air accents The Chad Fugly Guy: Vasili Podkolzin Cuts his own hair Spits into, or rubs dirt into, open wounds to heal them Still plays with a wood stick Trys to go coast-to-coast on every play Chirps at you constantly, refers to everyone as cyka blyat Views women as objects, still gets laid Does not register the feelings or emotions of others Takes a huge dump in the locker room toilet before each game Eats nothing but pizza, junk food, and beer Openly admits he only gives a f*** about himself Generally moody and s***ty to other people Hygiene minimal, hockey bag smells like an open sewer in bombay
