Its definitely in play with a comment like that
Goodbye pick #23.
Hello Johnny Hockey.
This one is priceless. I am laughing really hard and getting strange looks from the Mrs. She just wouldn't understand.
I have my own ideas, but I want to throw this out there:
What are our organizational needs heading into this draft, both by position and by qualities? @FLYguy3911 @Stizzle @Appleyard
Just overall depth really. They don't really have centers and there is no obvious RHD that you can say is a regular NHLer and you can never have too many goalies, but there is a pretty clear top - Frost, Farabee (still on an ELC), York, Brink, Zamula. That's a really good four or five. But after that it's a pretty decent dropoff with guys that realistically won't be more than 4th line/3rd pair quality.I have my own ideas, but I want to throw this out there:

Our biggest need has to be right-handed defense. We currently have Myers and a bunch of future question marks, with Niskanen at age 33.
Friedman will finally make the team this year at age 24.
After that, we're looking at Wylie, Attard, and St. Ivany in our system, and that's it. Even so, I doubt we end up with a RHD in the 1st round. As usual, high quality one's are sparse. Throw darts at a couple later in the draft and hope for the best.
Acquiring a top 4 RHD should allow them to trade Sanheim in a couple years, and plug in York behind Provorov. I like the way you think, Stiz.
As someone who clearly had the best Mock Draft, I am a bit offended you didnt @ meI have my own ideas, but I want to throw this out there:

Need more Emil’s (not Viro).As someone who clearly had the best Mock Draft, I am a bit offended you didnt @ me
Yeah, we clearly have a huge hole there. Probably why Pronman is so negativeNeed more Emil’s (not Viro).

I forgot to @ you, because you have been so slack about this draft, but how would you answer the question?

That means Schneider or trade down I guess. If Schneider is already off the board, which I think he is as he is arguably the number 3 defenseman in the draft (close with Ghule a season Wallander) you’re probably looking at Baron who you should still get in the early second. RHD is a scarce commodity.
Very good player whose only problem is the spelling of his first name.Mavrik Bourque
