Russia and Podkolzin are playing right now. He has 0 points through 2 periods.

Complete bust. Should be available at #35

Nikolayev and Cajcovich looks solid. Both can go late first. Hope one of them going to be available second round for us .Nikolayev is center

To be honest I’m surprised he’s even playing considering the uncertainty that he would ever leave Russia

Pride for Country! Why else?

Even more worrisome now that uncle Ovie is KO'ing fellow Russians!

Crazy how big of a gap there is between Podkolzin and Cajkovic as far as how they’re ranked. Not entirely sure it is all that warranted. Cajkovic has been equally dominant in international tournaments.

Boldy on line 3 and Zegras being scratched is.... interesting.

Gildon is someone to keep an eye on as a potential riser and option after Round 1.

Boldy on line 3 and Zegras being scratched is.... interesting.

Proof that Detroit is drafting Zegras, and paid to safeguard him from injury.

Cozens on the 3rd line. Abort! ABORT!!!

And those players after #2 not really convinced me. Maybe makes sense to trade down and get 2 for one

Cozens on the 3rd line. Abort! ABORT!!!

They probably just have 3 scoring lines, so does not meters who going first

Cozens on the 3rd line. Abort! ABORT!!!

That line is stacked, would be very surprised if it was used as the 3rd line as far as ice time.

Yeah, I'm being mock-hysterical. They did the same thing at the Hlinka tournament.

 

[lhsgolf19]

Zegras day to day with an injury

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Canada looking pretty rough so far.

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Krebs is so fast, though, man.

 

[Hockeyfannnn91]

I want holmstrom now , any holmstrom should be a redwing

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Rees looking very good all the sudden.

 

[Hockeyfannnn91]

Man it’s too bad the wings second rounders from nyi and sj are later , like Beecher thrun holmstrom fagemo puistola bjornfot helleson kotchekov might mostly be gone by those picks

I hope we dump Daley and some other guys for picks prior to the first round ending and move some picks from those deals to move up and get some top kids
