Thorny Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 So if we draft Power, does he project to 2nd pair, after Dahlin? Is it a bit odd to devote a 1st overall pick to filling a second pair D role? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really not psyched about the possibility of him being the pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not discussed at least once, prior to tonight, what sort of tone would be appropriate to take should we win? Smiling and "proud" is not the appropriate tone when you've sucked this hard for this long. Can't fault the smiling. Nothing he could do today about the finish last season. Most people crack a small smile even when just getting a free coffee or fries. But being "proud" of winning the lottery for which they had the best odds of winning PLUS the rabbit's foot that Taylor Hall brings wherever he goes seems to be a very poor wording choice.

IF they decide before the draft they CAN figure out how to keep Eichel & Reinhart, then they might draft Power. Otherwise, yeah, expecting they need to draft the 3C to ride behind Cozens & Mittelstadt in Dahlin's prime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are getting a really good player who will contribute, very soon be it Power or Beniers you can do much worse than having Dahlin and Power on your top 2 pairs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derrico Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 15 minutes ago, Thorny said: More so than the strength or weakness of this draft class, I think what muted the win for me was all the uncertainty around Jack. It's hard to see exactly how this will fit. I’m kind of like this too. But whatever happens I would still much rather have one then three. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashsabre Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 You take the best player regardless of position. They should take Power, he is the number one prospect. Kid is Canada’s number 1 dman at the WCs. He went from no ice time to top minutes in a couple games under a proven coach in Gallant. The lineup isn’t strong but still an accomplishment for sure for a kid who hasn’t been drafted yet. Tune in tomorrow, they play Russia. If they are blowing this up then it is easier to get top end scoring prospects back rather then top shelf stud dmen prospects. And NO, Power isn’t Myers because both are tall. Power has great hockey sense on the back end which Myers never had a lick of. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
