SwedeLundin77 460 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 The Atlantic had a piece about the top 5 players for the Wings (some might not make it to #9 if we stay there). Owen Tippett (RW) Elias Pettersson (LW) Eeli Tolvanen (RW) Cale Makar (D) Juuso Valimaki (D) It almost sounds like Valimaki is the more complete d-man (scoring, defensive awareness, aggressiveness). Is that true? Also, I have to wonder if Holland will try to move up to #3... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buppy 1,720 Report post Posted June 23, 2017 I'd be fine trading back. Could be our best move, depending on what we get for it. Our first 3 picks to Vegas for the 13 and 15...Draft Necas/Pettersson/Suzuki + Valimaki/Foote. I'd be ecstatic. Or even the 9 to Carolina for the 12 and 42. Without a trade I'm hoping for Glass (or Heiskanen, but I'm probably kidding myself thinking there's any chance), and I'd be happy with any of Mittlestadt, Necas, Pettersson, Tippett, or Liljegren. Even most of the "bad" choices like Rasmussen, Tolvanen, Andersson, Kostin, etc., have a lot going for them, so even if we mess up it shouldn't hurt too bad. (Now I probably jinxed it and we'll take Oettinger at 9) 2 Dabura and krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
