SDS Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Really? You would draft Sidney Crosby today over every other player in the NHL? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I don't watch enough Campbell Conference hockey to be able to do this, but this is going to be a great thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Also maybe Backstrom in the next ten. Plus he's taking Mike Weber at 7.No silly, it's Yannick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cereal Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Also maybe Backstrom in the next ten. No silly, it's Yannick. And now Minny's backup backup goalie in his next ten?? Randall's lost his mind! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDS Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Yep. Who do you take 1st? If I don't go McDavid to get his entire career then it would certainly be someone in their early 20s so that I got the majority of it. Taking a guy with concussion problems drafted 10 years ago? I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 It's a cute idea.....but if Schopp didn't have to pay the $50 to take the MENSA Test and could just send in his SAT scores.....he might have come up with...... 30 cities, 4 sports, football, baseball, hockey, basketball..........tear up all the contracts and draft from any player pool. What's your strategy? Do you go best player available? Do you go basketball first 5 rounds and try to have 1 dynasty team? Do you go QB/Goalie/Starting Pitcher/ Point Guard....and build around that?

I just still think Crosby is the best player in the world, and I think he has seven or eight years of Franchise Centering left to do.

#freejame Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Not counting 2015 kids: 1.) Sid 2.) Ovie 3.) Geno 4.) Price 5.) Tavares 6.) Stamkos 7.) Weber 8.) Toews 9.)Subban 10.)

We've got essentially the same players, but not top ten. I don't take Crosby at one just because of longevity issues and his history of concussions. That's not saying I don't think he's the best player, just not first pick. 1.) Ovi 2.) Stamkos 3.) Tavares 4.) Crosby 5.) Toews 6.) Weber 7.) Getzlaf 8.) Malkin 9.) Doughty 10.) Kopitar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Well I am going to exclude this years draft and assume this is to win a future cup. John Tavares Jamie Benn Jonathan Toews Claude Giroux Sidney Crosby Alex Ovechkin Sean Monahan PK Subban Ryan Getzlaf Vladamir Tarasenko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Toews, Stamkos, Kane, Tavares, Ovi, Terasenko, Seguin, Doughty, Keith, Subban No particular order, but I'd take these guys in the top ten. They're pretty good and for the most part, they stay pretty healthy. Edit: How did I forget Karlsson? And Giroux?!!

Randall Flagg Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 I wouldn't be the one to do it, but I really think Price would go top 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Toews is quietly becoming the best center in the league; most of that is based on his playoff ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson's Flow Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Based on all of our experiences and failures the last decade, it's good to see that the majority of everyone's list is populated with #1 centers :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 What's the highest any current Sabre would be drafted? Trying to be objective...Kane or Ennis? In like the 3rd or 4th round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrico Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 (edited) Counting the 2015 draft and any current player where does McDavid go? Eichel?? Counting the 2015 draft and any current player where does McDavid go? Eichel?? If McDavid is suppose to be the next Crosby and Crosby is in consideration for first then does McDavid go 1st overall? Considering the age of Crosby. And yes, I did just quote myself. Edited May 8, 2015 by Derrico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubkev Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Counting the 2015 draft and any current player where does McDavid go? Eichel?? McDavid goes top 3. Eichel goes top 15? Maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
