Player Discussion 2020 NHL Draft Poll (who should we pick?)

[Pappazzz]

nobody,

trade the pick,

anybody taken a look at how well our first round draft picks do when we pick 15+?

it aint pretty,

and i don't care about the blah blah "but but, this draft is amazing!!"

 

[SakuKoivu11]

Jake Sanderson is the guy the team wants. It’s possible we trade up.

If we stay anyone of the above is ok but I stay away from Brisson. Most of his points are secondary points. His skating is an issue. Below average I think.

 

[Matthew McConaughay]

So we lost our chance on Lafreniere, just to be beaten in the first round.

 

[FrankMTL]

For the record, I went with:

Jarvis
Holloway
Bourque

i get that every team wants to win, and so do the fans,

but in the long run, that win over pittsburgh does more harm then good

The player we needed more than any other franchise in the league.

What do you think of this hendrix LaPierre kid?

Hopefully a really good prospect drops to us.

Leroux was saying pre draft in 2012 when we ended up picking Galchenyuk 3rd overall that Timmins loved Forsberg who went #10 and Terravainen who went I think #17. When McDonagh was available at #12, Timmins nearly jumped out of his seat. Last year it was Caufield. Let's hope this year someone falls to us.

Like some others have mentioned, I'm not buying the whole injury thing. Was it a concussion, was it not a concussion....?? Who knows, but it's a red flag none the less. Also, the kid has problems scoring which is another red flag. Even before he got hurt, he only had 2 goals in 19 games and he's never scored more than 17 goals in any season of any team he's ever player. We need scorers.

 

[Miller Time]

BPA... and unless it's clear cut, prioritize the option with a larger frame and/or the safer pick.

can use the multiple 2nd's to swing for the fences and/or take chances on undersized finds

 

[Galaxydoggystyle]

Its Gunler for me.

 

[frapp10]

Trade it

 

[Jabba11]

Hoping we move up for Jack Quinn at this point. Worth trading up IMO.

 

[loadie]

Amirov for me

 

[FrankMTL]

The consensus favourites seem to be Jarvis, Holloway and Reichel (in that order)

I agree though, that if a player like Jack Quinn falls to us, I'm taking him.

 

[De Montreal]

We can pick two of those. We have the draft pick values to draft once around 20th and once around 30th.

Any combo of Jarvis / Holloway / Gunler / Zary / Mercer / Mysak / Amirov would make me happy

 

[NeptunesTrident]

I went with Bourque. I don't think Jarvis or Holloway will be there unless MB trades up. I'd say Gunler would be my next choice. No defensemen @#16.

 

[Nico Cauzuki]

Jarvis

 

[Vachon23]

Holloway
Mercer
Jarvis

in that order for me

 

[1000eeer]

Reichel
Jarvis
Gunler

 

[Frank JT]

In that Order :
Jarvis
Mercer
Lapierre
Amirov
Reichel

 

[Sterling Archer]

Why is Lapierre not here?

I’d go with:
Amirov
Lapierre
Jarvis

 

[FrankMTL]

I have added a second version to see updated preferences. Moderators, maybe we can lock this one up?

 

[cphabs]

Was listening to the NHL network. One of the commentators mentioned a Russian goalie that was incredible. Forget his name but why not if he is there?

I was just thinking that. How come Askarov isn't listed? I'd take him if he's there.
