Huckleberry Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 5 hours ago, Ducky said: Some are saying Chevy is going after him, I hope he isn't but scoring goals is kind of important in hockey. I wouldn't mind at all if Chevy drafted Lapierre though. 3 Concussions already though , its a risk many teams won't take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brawndo Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 Per Friedman Anaheim is not opposed to moving down a few spots in the First Round. If Rossi is available at 6 what would you give up? Ryan Johnson and 8th OA? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 So this means that if Anaheim stays, they are picking someone a little off the beaten track, right? That's more evidence Rossi is going to fall. And if it's not him, someone else will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaheim could move down a bit and still come away with one of their options, either A, B and C and still be more than satisfied. If we are going to keep our pick I would prefer to make our selection from our current spot and use the asset that would have been used to move up to use it in a trade to address another immediate need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am re-signing Montour in this scenario. If I could I would do 8 and Johnson or 8 and something else. Basically I want to ensure we get Rossi.

Ducky Posted September 30, 2020 Report Share Posted September 30, 2020 (edited) I think I read somewhere that Lapierre's was similar to Crosby's misdiagnosis of a concussion. He has had one I think.

Just read a Hockey News mock where we pick him at #8. Which was fine until you see Rossi go to Minny at 9.

Also no way with our need for talent upfront that we pass on Rossi for Drysdale as the Hockey News suggested. Would you trade next year's No. 1 for a chance to get another top 12 pick this season?

Yes. *** From a Q&A with Pronman i the Athletic The Athletic recently completed a beat writer mock draft in which the three picks after the top three were Perfetti, Raymond and Drysdale. If the Devils’ scouting staff believes in Sanderson, should they consider seeing what Minnesota (No. 9), Winnipeg (No. 10) or even Nashville (No. 11) would offer for the No. 7 pick to give them chance to grab the last top-shelf center (Rossi)? Yeah, sure. Trades are so speculative and typically nobody trades up one or two spots, but it is possible. Minnesota has publicly said they want a center. Bill Guerin has not hid his cards on that front. I think it’s worth entertaining it, because I think Buffalo is seriously discussing Rossi. So, I think Minnesota would be a decent candidate to at least mention that to. First suggestion I have ever seen from a credible source as to who the Sabres might be leaning towards.

Everyone is predicting Perfetti to Detroit, so unless Yzerman is tossing up the biggest smoke screen ever (for no reason) they are probably taking Perfetti.

Shootica Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 Corey Pronman put out a new mock draft today that has us taking Rossi at #8. He mentions that from what he's heard, the names most connected to us are Rossi, Raymond, and Quinn. https://theathletic.com/2090914/2020/10/01/nhl-mock-draft-2020-corey-pronman-projects-all-seven-rounds?source=user-shared-article 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnC Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 Attached is a WGR link with Sportsnets' Sam Cosentino talking about the draft. This is a 9 min segment that discusses many of the prospects that have been discussed on this site. He makes the point that after the first pick the players in the next 10 players or so are still very high quality prospects. https://www.radio.com/wgr550/authors/howard-and-jeremy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this draft is actually 13 deep and maybe 14 if Holloway takes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
