That would be awesome.tyler wright set a precedent last year (values size), wouldnt be surprised to end up with Bouchard, Dobson, or Tkachuk if we're picking outside of the top 3.

Actually 10 months, that age difference is a big deal.and just think: this kid is 8 months younger than Hughes.

PHI up 4-0Big game for our draft. If PHI gets a point tonight vs, NYR, they'll reach the playoffs as a WC & we'll get a 3rd rounder. If FLA wins the last 2 games (BUF, BOS) and PHI loses in regulation, FLA will take their place
whoo-hoo, I've been listening, Eliot in goal doing well- 1 period & we get a 3rdPHI up 4-0
I'm pumped. Let's try for 10.Thanks for the 3rd rounder Philly! Is it 8 top 100 picks?
I'm pumped
Yeah I realized I was looking at an older thread than I thought.that was only if Philly lost and florida won out
Just another skilled RH defenseman I'd love for them to draft. I like that he reads the play and bails on his pinch if he thinks it's too risky. I didn't see a lot of that from Hughes during the WJC.
He looks okay in the first half of the game, but he's really dangerous in the second half of the game when his teammates remember that he exists.

Dobson is the most likely to end up as that all-situations #1D. Pietrangelo is the best stylistic comparison I've seen. I personally would prefer Boqvist as I think he's got the skill to be an elite offensive D that puts up a ton of points while dominating possession, but Dobson is the guy if you want a prototypical all-situations 1D.I like the top9 as much as anybody, on the other hand I am a little bit worried how these Ds after Dahlin will pan out in the future. It's mainly due to the fact how hard it is to project Ds. I mean which one will be the best from the pack after Rasmus and not just a specialist in one situation. We badly need our Hedman, Doughty-type of all-around Dman. Which one can be something similar to the aforemntioned Ds? It's really a crapshoot. I know we need luck too, but also have to select the right guy in 5-8 range. So all in all it's pretty hard for me to rank them. It's kind of weird.
Btw when was the last time the 1st round (especially the top15) was so much loaded with Ds?
We can't end up at 4 (splitting hairs), but we'd have to pay way more than your proposition. I'd say the cost would resemble Larkin+ 5OA + VGK 1st + 2nd + Cholowski. Even that might not do it. There's a reason the pick has no chance of getting moved.What would it take to move up? Say we get 4th pick, and say Buffalo gets 1st. Do they trade at all? Like our fourth pick+VGK first rounder+2nd+AA to move to 1st? Dahlin for us? Is that a somewhat comparable deal or am I living in lala land.
So we either end up top 3 or 5-8 then correct? My bad I misspoke, just trying to make somewhat of a proposition. That's quite the payment haha.We can't end up at 4 (splitting hairs), but we'd have to pay way more than your proposition. I'd say the cost would resemble Larkin+ 5OA + VGK 1st + 2nd + Cholowski.

It's actually 36, not 37, so even better. Here's a site that includes a mock of us taking Bouchard and Thomas with our first rounders (I'd probably be alright with that):So the picks are:
5th-ish
VGK 1st (somewhere between 24 and 31)
33rd
37th
67th
81st?
84th?
98th
159th
160th
191st

I want Boqvist
That's been my pick all along as well. If we get a 5-8 pick I could see Kenny trading up to get lil' Svech, though.
