Can you point us at your lists for drafts past? Say 3, 4, 5 years ago?

Folks often mistake inexperience for low hockey IQ. Some guys, like Risto, just don't seem to get any better at decision making no matter how much experience they gather. Tage, IMO has improved w experience.. but he needs to keep improving especially his decision making.

Well, at least it doesn't bother you.

No Toronto?

Agreed, it shouldn't be news... but I applaud him nonetheless.

I, for one, thinks he uses his reach fairly well. He has good hands, and a hard shot... combined with his reach he has an enormous puck radius. He's good on the forecheck and gets his stick on a lot of pucks due to his length. He could be more physical, but that's not his game. He's OK defensively (+4 TRpm). My concern w Tage is wether or not he can take that next step.

I see JT Compher was not protected by COL. Always liked his game, woulda been an upgrade over Eakin IMO.

I like Eklund, he's my highest rated forward... excellent hockey sense and skill. Needs to work on his top end speed tho which he can imrpove. Pace of play, confidence, decision making... just to name a few.

Unanswerable until we know the opening night roster... of both teams.

Who?

I think there's still plenty of runway in Power's development, he's shown outstanding ability to adapt and adjust. Beniers, I like his game, but I'm not sure as he has that elite hockey sense you'd expect in a top pick. Too bad he was injured at the World's.

He needs to work on his defensive game, as does any 18yo prospect. That said, the growth in his game throughout the season and at the World's is why I would take him #1. Additionally, his size and reach allow him to overcome positional deficiencies at his age.

👀

Nah. It's Power.

Power will be a Sabre.

wasn't rodrigues 71?

such a strange number tho... Foligno?

They won't be as good as Vegas was year one, but prolly not bottom 5.

71? why tho

Borgen will be the pick. He's overrated anyway so nbd.

Sure it does. Borgen is a top level D prospect for a struggling franchise who needs all the help it can get. His departure will send shockwaves across the organiza.... ahhh nevemind.

🤔

when do they mKe the list public?

What "history"? Injuries?

KA asleep at the wheel. No goalie protected?
