Devils 1st pick poll

[Feed Me A Stray Cat]

Of those guys? Lindholm, easily.

Realistically? Domi.

 

[MartyOwns]

Just a feeling I get, I just don't see him succeeding in the NHL.

No need to come in with your condescending post and act like a dick, providing 0 value to the discussion as you often do.

nobody ever said you make internet friends by being nice. the loudest dick wins!

Would love Nichushkin and watching him play on a Russian connection line with Kovy and Locki. Doubt he's there at 9. Have no problem trading down a bit and taking Horvat with our first.

 

[Devils Dominion]

I am not sure yet, at this point I am leaning towards Monahan but still time for me to change my opinion.

 

[Sgt Brylin]

Monahan > Lindholm > Shinkaruk > Nichuskin.

No trades, please.

Not good, this draft is way better than next year

Is it?

 

[SeidoN]

Is it?

yes.... best forward depth in a while

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

I'm hoping that one of Monahan, Lindholm or Nichushkin is available at pick 9.

If not, it is going to be a very tough decision. I was high on Shinkaruk but he seems to be not rated as highly as he once was by several draft experts- from a bonafide top 10 to now about 10-25.

I'm actually leaning towards trading the pick if we can't get a Monahan, Lindholm or Nichushkin.

It's an interesting mix, reminds me a bit of the 2nd tier of forwards in 2010.

Johansen/Niederreiter/Connolly/Skinner/Burmistrov/Granlund/Tarasenko
Lindholm/Monahan/Nichushkin/Shinkaruk/Domi/Horvat/Wennberg

Monahan is better than Lindholm, Shinkaruk, and Nichuskin?

I'm getting that vibe, too.

 

[Mr Bojanglez]

anybody up for doing a 2nd round pick (shot not). Maybe pick guys ranked from 30th on?

 

[glenwo2]

You should create a thread on that, Bo.

 

[Benedict Parisechuk]

I went with Lindholm because were gonna have to hit a home run eventually with one of the Swede forwards we draft. Were kind of 0-3 with a couple strike outs right now. But yea the Russian kid is rather interesting especially if he falls to us. Hope to god Lou Conte don't fumble this one.

 

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

What would you think if the Devils traded their pick for a 2nd rounder this year and a 1st rounder next year?

Second rounder for a late 1st rounder while giving up our first rounder next year.

I like that idea. However I would think that we would have to add...

 

[B A T M A N]

We have enough two way players. So I'm personally not sold on Monahan.

 

[Comparison Ford]

Lindholm for me without hesitation, but if hes not available which will be more than likely, I see us picking up Shinkaruk.

 

[AfroThunder396]

Big 4
Nichuskin
Lindholm
Monahan
Shinkaruk
Domi
Everyone else

In that order

 

[Semak]

Heart: Nichuskin

Mind: Monahan

Wish list: Lindholm

Think will happen: trade down and get Horvat

I'm calling it: neither Domi nor Shinkaruk will be drafted by NJ.

 

[B A T M A N]

Heart: Nichuskin

Mind: Monahan

Wish list: Lindholm

Think will happen: trade down and get Horvat

I'm calling it: neither Domi nor Shinkaruk will be drafted by NJ.

Then it means we had a good draft if this happens.

 

[regulahbread]

I'd love to see Lindholm or Nichushkin fall to 9, but I think we end up with Monahan, Shinkaruk, or Domi.

 

[I Hate Tie DOMI]

Anyone but Domi....please no Domi's.

 

[CerebralGenesis]

I can see us taking Domi easily. Elite player with the puck in the ozone with lack of effort in the dzone. Easyto fix. Those hands are not.

 

[HischierSeDgewOrk]

Second rounder for a late 1st rounder while giving up our first rounder next year.

You misread his suggestion
