Even if the Hawks finish last they'll have less than a 20% chance at Hughes.
Let's not get too carried away.

Kakko is good too. And with the way this organization has drafted in the last couple years, I trust that if they had the third or fourth overall pick, that they'd find an impact player. As of now, they have a lot of good choices in guys like Cozens, Dach, or Podkolzin to choose from.

I was just going to ask how Strome was doing, I guess this thread answers that lol. We gave up on him waaaaay too soon, and it looks like it's going to bite us in the ass. Turris trade 2.0.
The Strome shops are great btw.

Schmaltz is working out well so far. If he can find any consistency with that whatsoever you're in good shape.

Schmaltz has been good minus the times where his controller turns off on D, no?
I see this as a win win for both team even though I was against trading Schmaltz.

A guy who can play that area and deflect has been lacking on the Hawks for too long. Hope the PP in the future can get going with him there

Don't eat Crow. He's suffered enough.
Does the move if Strone to LW from C mean his is never going to be the 2C solution?
Obviously they feel he is at least not yet ready to play the C position with all it entails defensively ...extra responsibility. ..not that Anisimov is any solution either. R ..but by putting green him on the wing he has less complex positioning reads and less ice to cover laterally ...he can concentrate more on playmaker g in the attack and forecheck ...does this change our strategic targeting for the draft?
Suppose we do not get the #1 ...IF it is #2 to we bypass Kako (RW) for who we have ranked 2nd C target after Hughes (though I personally do not want surf Hughes as C anyway) ?
Do we trade do as much as 3 soits to 3rd 4th or 5th selection...knowing we could still draft a Big C solution for 2C in Dach, Cozens or Leason?
I an also not sure where the X factor
Leason really fits now in the rankings ...the 19 yr old may in fact be a 3-5 ranking on a lot of scouts lists based on his clear emergence as a dominating WHL star this season..Late bloomer yes ..but you cannot ignore the size the speed and scoring ability.
He seemed pretty good on face offs too from what I saw in the Canada-Russia Super series he played in in November for the WHL squad..
Anyway not sure if we value potential of younger first time eligible Dach and Cozens over this X factor infusion into the debate ..
He also is a very dangerous guy on the PK due to his shorty threat and his long reach to bust up plays. .
If you had him and Entwhistle out there killing off penalties we might turn that special team around instantly ..Both are very good as PK guys..Both good at face offs. ..
