Seems like there will be plenty of opportunities for the Canadien with the Flames pick around 20-25. Thanks for the update.

Miroshnichenko will fall out of first round

 

[Gecklund]

Miroshnichenko will fall out of first round

Why do you say that?

Why do you say that?

He has very serious health problem with lymphoma, going to miss more than a year hockey

 

[Gecklund]

Yes but it is curable. I think he might drop a bit with lottery teams not wanting to take the risk but this guy is likely a top 10 talent in this draft. I’d put money on a team taking a chance on him later (especially a team like ARI with Colorados pick).

 

[Dirtyf1ghter]

He should be fine and he has a lot of room in terms of talent.

I see him fall at the end of the first round.

I fear more the discriminatory factor against Russian players.

When I see the CHL prohibiting access to Russian and Belarusian players (stupid decision because it suits the business of Russian hockey which discriminated against players playing in North America).

The Habs could also take the chance with The Flames Pick depending on where it is or their own 2nd rounder....

I could see that happening but that could be a big benefit to the teams picking in the late 20s or early 2nd round....

With whats going on in the Ukraine right now, I think the Russian players are very definitely going to fall in the 1st round ! It'll be interesting to see how far won't it?

I think teams are just afraid of the fallout from taking a Russian player, even though these kids are not at fault !

 

[Oilers]

I think a team will take Miroshnicehnko first round. I'd be almost certain a team like Arizona who has 3 first round picks will take him with one of their later picks if he isn't off the board yet.

Arizona has so many picks, I can see them taking on run on dropping Russians.
