In the lower bowl today. He was sitting pretty close. He’s all legs and super skinny. Very very tall.

1) We have Hogberg, Gustavsson, Daccord and Mandolese.
2) Value of goalies is lowest of all positions.
3) Probably still available at 44
LETS TRADE UP BOYS.

None of these guys are guarantees. One or two of these likely will be gone in the two years we have to sign Sogaard.
Trading up for a goalie who will need to turn pro in 2 years when we have 6 goalies under contract.

I like that they've been drafting goalies every year recently, but the trade-up here seems ill-advised. For a rebuilding team, I think they should be trying to take more swings at the draft and trading down instead.
I do like that the organizational depth is much improved compared to where it was a few years ago when Driedger and Brassard were the only guys in the system. While they're obviously not all going to work out, I'm hopeful that there will be a long-term starter that emerges between Gustavsson, Hogberg, Daccord, Sogaard, Mandolese, and Hollett.

Don't mind taking him with our 3rd pick but I don't think trading up to that spot was a great decision. Dorion loves to just throw away picks in dumb trades though so at least he's got that out of the way for this week.

Trading up to pick a lower rated player.
Drafting way down instead of trading down when the player will still be there several picks later
D- draft grade.
D- post. You have no idea who would be available at any point in the draft. Guys like you are hilarious.

I don't think the question is "would the Senators have gotten him at 44", it should be "is this guy worth 44+83".
He was the 2nd ranked goalie in the draft, and teams tend to have an idea of where other teams are leaning. The Senators probably had a good idea that they needed to move up if they wanted this player. Teams aren't always right about who wants who, but they generally have some intel.
To use this much draft stock on a goalie when we have Gustvsson, Hogberg, and Daccord in the system, I would hope that this guy projects to be a star. Or, there was just too big of a drop off in the second round to justify staying put. Value wise, that's the only way it makes a lot of sense to me.

I feel that they thought they might get him at 44. Once Carolina took their goalie, they didn't want to chance Sogard being taken by anyone else from 37-43. Carolina going "off the board" for a goalie just changed our strategy a bit.
