Is Corson Ceulemans RD a reach at 10 OA? Would you drop back to claim him & collect another pick in the process? A trade with Cal for their 1st 13th OA & 45th would give Ottawa three good early picks in the 2nd rd where there will be a number of good players available, like these guys.
1st rd - C. Ceulemans RD
2nd rd - L. Mailloux RD
2nd rd - T. Boucher RW
2nd rd - M. Knies C
Chabot - Ceulemans
Sanderson - JBD
Kleven - Mailloux
Brandt, Hughes and Johnson are the three guys I'm hopeful slide to us or within reach to trade up for. Team Lists are going to be all over the place imo, so there's hope someone slides.
Johnson for me on that choice. I would take the swing on that possible elite skilled top line forward. If we want a goalie there are two good ones in this draft. Cossa at 6'6 and Sogaard would make quite the tandem. I think you have to at least consider a goalie vs Sillinger/Lucius/Lysell and the rest
Seeing a lot of mixed reviews on Edvinsson from NHL scout comments mostly on his IQ.. Everyone raves about his skating ,size and puck handling though ... I might consider a goalie over him as well.
I do for sure but I think gonna cost more than a second pickIf Brandt, Hughes and Johnson are available at #6, do you trade #10 plus a second round pick to get the #6 pick or not, preferring to wait and hope?
