Fantasy Mock Draft Part 3

[Gecklund]

Jason Zucker-Connor McDavid-Kyle Palmieri
Johnny Gaudreau-Eric Staal-Joel Armia
xxx-Boone Jenner-xxx

Love my forwards right now. McDavid has two fantastic finishers with him, Armia is a great finisher as well for Gaudreau and Staal to set up and Jenner is a great shut down forward that can play any position.

Girard-Hjalmarsson
Heiskanen-Fabbro

There are 3 young guys on D but all of them have proven to be top 4 level, two way guys. Hjalmarsson will help mentor the young guys and hold down the fort.

 

[Joey Moss]

Cole is a solid pick here.

Was going to take him myself

 

[Kent Nilsson]

Last game we assumed everyone was healthy.

Assuming it is the same for this one.

How do you assume everyone is healthy

Is Erik Karlsson healthy in the game ?

I feel like you're constantly getting your defense targets sniped.

There is a difference between injured players who have had their play become worse due to injuries (Karlsson) and players who are often injured, but when healthy, perform at their usual high level (Raanta).

Raanta's injuries haven't affected his play when he does play, which is what we assume.

Regardless, Karlsson's still a top-10/15 D in the league.

(I agree with what you said, I just wanted to pump my players' tires)...

Yea pretty much and then I hold off on them more and more

Cole is one of those players with stats that make him seem much better than he really is.

He isn't awful...but a little surprised so many wanted him here.

 

[EvilDead]

I'm surprised at the quality still left at center. There were actually some players that got looked over.

Really weird seeing Fabbro picked that early. He hasn't really accomplished anything in the NHL to date.

 

[Makaveli]

Last draft he went super late

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

No Nutivaara was taken as well... give me a second. I could go with my next best LD option or I could go for something completely different.

 

[Llamamoto]

He was playing #4/#5 mins on the Preds.

 

[Gecklund]

Really weird seeing Fabbro picked that early. He hasn't really accomplished anything in the NHL to date.

He's been the number 4 D on a team with Subban, Ekholm, Ellis, Josi, etc. and is only 22 (or 21 can't remember but young).

Cole is a #4 defenseman in my eyes. He was very good in the playoffs last year especially.

He and Dunn have stellar stats. Odd how little either if them played.

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

I changed my mind at the last second. I think Koivu would be a nice defensive 3C behind Crosby and Dubois.

54.35 GF% with just 42.96% O-Zone Starts, how's that @Panda Bear?

 

[belair]

I know who he is. He's still incredibly green with very little production to date. Far from established. Also Subban was traded to New Jersey.

 

[Paralyzer008]

Koivu is a nice pick.

 

[Addison Rae]

gavrikov was a good pick was hoping for him to fall to my next pick to play him with marino

 

[NeoCanuck]

Joonas Donskoi (3.90M) - Aleksander Barkov (5.90M) - Mike Hoffman (5.187M)
Jonathan Marchessault (5.00M) - Brayden Schenn (5.125M) - Brett Connolly (3.50M)

Who do you think replaced Subban? I know he was traded to NJ. Fabbro played last season too.

 

[hi]

select Brayden McNabb.
