Would rather take Jordan Spence here.
I would consider Spence in the 2nd but not with our first pick in the second.

Like the first three picks, Ronnie attard can be someone to look at 3-7Looking at the Central Scouting rankings and just thinking about it more, I think this will be a draft where we take mostly forwards. After Round 1, I really like the group of forwards significantly better than the defenseman out there. Maybe we can try to double up on them in round 2 or something.
Like grab a center round 1, double up on D in round 2, and then go for a high upside forward or winger in round 3...?
RD1: Dylan Cozens
RD2: Kaedan Korczak
RD2: Marshall Warren
RD3: Maxim Cajkovic or Egor Serdyuk
I'm not seeing a lot of attractive options for defenseman in rounds 3-7. Maybe we look at overagers, or maybe there are some Euro's I'm not aware of, but it's kind of slim pickings this year.
I feel like Lavoie is heating up, I liked what I saw from him at the u18 last year, and Krebs is probably one of the next few on my list. Admittedly, Krebs probably would be higher if he had even a single decent teammate, I'm sure his stat line could be much better if that was the case.
people freaked out because we drafted a big body without much talent other than deflecting pucks in the top 10
Thanks, appreciate it.
With Broberg, he wasn’t on anyone’s radar before the Hlinka, so it feels kind of like a flash in the pan to me. If he was playing in the SHL like Soderstrom I’d feel better. He has size and skating so you never know... but he’s not someone I think we should be looking at personally... I see a very wide range of outcomes with him.
Pelletier is very underrated for me. You’re right he won’t go top 15, but I think he should. The Q is an undervalued league and I don’t understand why.

Maybe take a flyer on someone like a

And just hope we get lucky , I’m still hoping we can add another 2-3 picks in the first two rounds by Monday through Jensen,Nyquist,Howard,Daley And I want to be positive and be hopeful we get a top 2 pick ha
1- hughes/kakko
1- vlasic
2-beecher

One can dream
1. Hughes/Kakko
3. Turcotte
4. Byram
5. Podkolzin
6. Cozens
7. Broberg
8. Dach
9. Zegras
10. Lavoie
Cozens and Dach are both good players, but I feel a tad overrated .
Would really like to see Detroit go for quality over quantity in this draft, maybe move some of our picks at the deadline along with players to try and move up as high as possible.
Maybe something like Nyquist + Islanders 2nd for 1st + prospect.
or
Jensen +5th for 2nd.

No Krebs in the top 10? I think the general consensus around the NHL right now is that Krebs (along with Alex Turcotte) is rising, and has almost caught guys like Cozens, Dach, Boldy, Podkolzin. I really like Krebs, in my opinion he is more skilled than Cozens/Dach/Boldy. I know he is smaller, but I like his high end skill. Obviously it's almost impossible to predict where these guys will be in 5+ years, but I wouldn't be shocked if he ends up as the 3rd best player in this draft. It's a bit tough to properly assess him because he plays for Kootenay, who are absolute junk.
My dream is to get Hughes, Broberg and Knight. We need more picks Kenny.
I don’t know if I would say he’s more skilled than Boldy or Dach. Boldy isn’t talked about a whole lot, but he has some pretty impressive hands.
Krebs reminds me of Larkin from the standpoint of... he might not make a highlight reel play every night, but he will get on the box score every night. They are just efficient guys.
Cozens and Dach have had their peaks and valleys, but Krebs has been very consistent so far. Makes you wonder if he will be able to drive a line more on a consistent basis.
nailed it!
Must be one hell of a draft if Kakko is the 8th best prospect.Yeah I have him lower, he reminds me of how I felt about Zadina and Sam Reinhart. I just am not as high on him despite his consensus ranking among a lot of scouts.
1. Hughes
2. Turcotte
3. Kakko
4. Cozens
5. Byram
6. Zegras
7. Dach
8. Soderstrom
9. Krebs
10. Boldy
Kaapo Kakko 2 goals...
You are taking Turcotte above Kakko, Cozens, Dach and Byram. That is just foolish.
Since we have 3 second rounders, here are some guys I like for round 2...
C: Philip Tomasino, Jamieson Rees, Ryder Donovan, Nikita Alexandrov
W: Nick Robertson, Egor Afansyev, Brayden Tracey, Maxim Cajkovic
D: Kaedan Korczak, Marshall Warren, Ben Brinkman, Alex Vlasic, Ryan Johnson
G: Hunter Jones, Mads Sogaard,
Pyotr Kochetkov
I really hope they keep out of the wingers this draft and go for bust on defenders and centers.
