One of Zegras, Turcotte (who I think they will pick), Byram (who I think Chicago will pick), or Cozens will be available. No need to trade back unless it is with Buffalo get both 1st rounders or the same scenario with Anaheim.

Euro_Twins 4,475 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 Depending on which pre draft rankings you look at cozens could go top 4 and byram could go 6. But with our luck both will be gone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Plus his skating isn’t very strong. He would be considered a top 10 talent in most drafts, but he'll likely fall around there. I don't see him going top 5. He reminds me of a right-handed Rasmussen to be honest. Big, good in front of the net, not the best skater, great work ethic, leader, etc. Which is why we'll probably end up drafting him... I'm really hoping Cozens or Byram fall to 6... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where as the top center (Crosby/McDavid vs Larkin) or even worse the top 2nd line center vs whoever we slum with is a much wider gap. Analytics has killed goalies value not overall talent being produced. The old hockey sayings about goalies is like talking about putting in golf.

You could be right, but I think they want someone NHL ready-ish to help get bounced in the first round of next years playoffs. Turcotte fills that spot. The wings need help down the middle, he is fast which they rightfully put a premium on, his 2 way game is nhl ready, and he is physically mature enough. If it weren’t for them already having Rasbustessen then Dach would probably be the pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Coyotes misappropriation of analytics shouldn’t be used to judge its usefulness. There obviously has to be balance with traditional scouting used. Using analytics as a sole basis for every personal decision, even when comparing apples v oranges (WHL v CHL), is foolish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HoweFan 74 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 May as well give you a Dach update as he is likely on our short list now. He scored the only goal as the Blades beat the powerhouse Raiders in game three last night. He scored a highlight goal in game two when the Raiders won 3-2. Seems to be elevating his game when it counts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amato 3,210 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 Post draft lotto thoughts: I want Byram. And I think I'm starting to like Zegras more and more (collect all the Zs!). Turcotte and Cozens also stand out of course. Basically Byram or a center.

HoweFan 74 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 Byrum and Cozens are my top two picks but I’m preparing myself for the worst case scenario and they are both gone. My next two are Turcotte and Dach. I hope Zegras sneaks up there and someone takes him early. Podkolzin is still going third I think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kipwinger 8,520 Report post Posted April 10, 2019 (edited) I don't see Podkolzin going 3rd. Chicago is pretty set on the wing but they're fairly weak down the middle in terms of their top end prospects. Have to think they'd want a center. Colorado is another team that's organizationally weak down the middle and stronger on defense and the wings. If anybody is going to take Podkolzin before Detroit drafts it will likely be Los Angeles. Three of their top four prospects (according to Pronman) are centers so they're good on that. They're not great on defense, so taking Byram at 5th would be a fine move, but you have to think that if the consensus 3rd overall falls to 5th they'd scoop him up. So here's how I see it playing out: NJ: Hughes NYR: Kakko CHI: Zegras or Cozens COL: Cozens or Zegras LA: Podkolzin DET: Byram or Turcotte Edited April 10, 2019 by kipwinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what little I know, and reading scouting reports he's likely to get drafted before Zegras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
