Tkachuck has had a nice year at Boston.
Not sure about Hayton. He's almost a full year younger and at nearly a point per game in the O. Decent size. Supposed to be a two-way center.

Yet, he has Sandin at 18. I think maybe he's a Greyhounds homer. When I saw Sandin I thought he was a forward, I won't mind him going off the board before our Vegas pick.

Watch a lot of BU games and personally think he gets hyped up cause his last name and the fact his brother is doing fairly well as a top 10 draft pick.
If we don’t get zadina/svech/walstrom we should look strictly D
Only had to mock draft twice on tankathon for us to get Dahlin
every day i sim tankathon until we get Dahlin, then i leave it until the next day
yesterday was the first try, ive had some unlucky streaks were i do it like 10-15x and dont get him tho

Would be pretty nice to get these packages. F + D, Zadina+Merkley or Bouchard+Veleno, with own+Vegas picks.

Agreed. Both of those pairings would be better awesome. They have Keller-Chychrun vibes.

Well, he’s exactly the type of player Tyler Wright loves, so if he’s still there watch out.
He’s not usually the type of guy I go for, but I actually like Brady quite a bit this year. Maybe not my first choice, but I wouldn’t be mad at it.
again.. tyler wright said he's focusing on skill this year

If we pick 8th or so no I wouldn’t be that upset. Just think there will be more impactful players that are available that we should choose with a top 5 pick if we happen to be lucky

But smaller and more skilled or bigger and a tad less skilled is the question
Same, I think Brady is gonna be an awesome compliment to make a great line. I don't think the org takes him - I think they'd go D in that spot.

Yeah... it was interesting to see that Zadina vs. A.Svechnikov shooting chart. Wright talked about skill guys, who can run the power-play, at half-wall of the offensive zone.
Zadina's shots came exactly from those areas, Svechnikov was more random.

Not that I am Craig Button but here is my top 10. Still some season left and post-seasons for me to finalize but this is my board for you guys.
1.) Dahlin
2.) Svechnikov
3.) Hughes
4.) Tkachuk
5.) Bouchard
6.) Zadina
7.)Boqvist
8.) Wahlstrom
9.) Dobson
10.) Hayton
I really like all of those guys to be honest. This is such a good draft. I think Tkachuk's skill isn't actually getting looked at enough. He isn't just mean, he has a ton of vision and sick hands.
I don't have a problem with where Button put him at all. Also I like that he has Hayton high. Reminds me of how I felt about Horvat not long ago, kid is a very good two way player project. We shouldn't really be in a spot to consider him though.

I like a lot of the guys in this draft. I think my top 5 is pretty set in stone though.
I don't like Zadina has as much upside as Svechnikov and Tkachuk. I am really high on Hughes and Bouchard is also why I have them in front. He is a very good player, we shouldn't be upset if he is added to the ranks.
I really wish one of the big three forwards was right shot though

It's really funny if the draft could go like this.
Let's say, Buffalo is the dead last and also wins the lottery, their draft list is:
1. Dahlin
2. Bouchard
3. Boqvist
Strong need for defence, and of course they take Dahlin. So Dahlin is off the board.
Then Montreal wins the 2nd overall. Their list is:
1. Dahlin
2. Svechnikov
3. Zadina
They'll take Andrei Svechnikov.
Ottawa wins the 3rd overall. Their list is:
1. Dahlin
2. Zadina
3. Svechnikov
They'll pick Zadina.
Vancouver has been the 2nd last at regular season and have 4th overall. Their list is:
1. Dahlin
2. Tkachuk
3. Svechnikov
They draft Tkachuk. They missed on Matt Tkachuk, but now they got his brother.
Detroit has been the 3rd last of the regular season. Our list is:
1. Dahlin
2. Bouchard
3. Zadina
4. Svechnikov
We'll take Evan Bouchard.
Arizona has been the 4th last, but dropped to 6th overall, because Montreal and Ottawa got lucky. Their list:
1. Dahlin
2. Boqvist
3. Bouchard
They'll pick Boqvist...
This is just fantasy, but an example, how everybody could be getting their TOP2 pick in certain circumstances. Teams have different lists and these guys are so equal after Dahlin.

I think taking Evan Bouchard over Svechnikov or Zadina would be a huge misfire. Yes, defense is our biggest organizational hole, but I think those two players make a larger impact than Boqvist, Bouchard, Hughes, or any of the guys after Dahlin. Obviously if we pick 4-10, defense is an absolute priority, but those are franchise wingers.
