2016 Draft Thread IV – Host: Buffalo – Pick: 8th

[N.Y. Orangeman]

Chychrun was rated the fifth best defenseman in the draft by HockeyProspect.com

I love hockeyprospect, but putting Fabro and, to a lesser extent, McAvoy over him is dubious.

Sidenote: Nylander is #12, since Nyldander and Chychrun seem to be joined at the hip here these days.

I'm actually starting to think they might both be gone by the time we pick. Wouldn't surprise me at all if those two and Tkachuk make up 4-6, with either Juolevi or Dubois falling to us.
