Everyone seems to agree that Wright, Slafkovsky and Cooley are top three but after that its looks to wide open. Stevie will get a good one. Shhhh no, don't let other GMs hear you. Cooley can fall into our laps please. 1 Akakabuto reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cooley, Savoie, Gauthier, Geekie, and Lambert all interest me. Would definitely prefer a speedy center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,494 Report post Posted May 12, 2022 Lekkerimaki is Vrana 2.0. So, while I'd be annoyed with not drafting a center for the zillionth time in a row, if you're going to draft a winger draft him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I think SY goes for talent rather than position all day. Whether that's winger or D. 2 redw1ngs and F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonas Mahonas 1,872 Report post Posted May 18, 2022 one tough thing about the #8 pick is getting a guy who is nhl ready or close to it. Kasper will take 2-3 years before he becomes a Wing. Thats a long wait. I hope we trade up to get Jiricek. He will be NHL ready in a year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who will be better in 2-3yrs? Kasper or Jiricek? I trust SY to make the right choice if he even has a choice 1 or both might be gone by 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TLGTrico 616 Report post Posted May 18, 2022 You never draft a guy for how good he is on draft day. You draft him for how good he's going to be. 2 redw1ngs and Betterovwithfedorov91 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If I know a guy can step into a third line role immediately with a ceiling of 2nd line, I take him over the guy who needs a year or two in GR to put on size and then comes in as a 3rd liner with 1st line ceiling.
