Pretty sure the Rangers thought New Jersey was going to pick Schneider, and they jumped in front of them to get him.

To be fair, the Kings would have had to entice a team to trade a pick in that range to be able to draft Schneider.

I don’t think they have the assets to give up to jump into the top 20, which is roughly where Schneider was projected to go. The Kings are probably better off sitting where they’re at and waiting to find another Kaliyev/Fagemo with their three picks in the 2nd.

This was a player I thought might be there with one of our 3 2nd round picks. They thought highly enough of him to learn how to pronounce his last name

When Sam Cosentino says the Jackets pick is off the board, you know it’s off the board. Haha.

The look on his face was hilarious.

Some of these picks are bold... there will be some good players dropping.
