Well we certainly could use another top 6 C, especially one of this caliber.

I wonder where Cozens will end up being picked. Starting to like his game a lot and I noticed Canada had him taking face offs on the PK. He would go to the bench right after to let another guy kill the penalty.
Big scoring right shot C who seems to be very good on the dot sounds good to me. Anyone have a scouting report or comparison of his game style?

He's solidly in and around the Top 10 on most early lists I have seen. Still a lot to happen but yeah next years draft is going to be extremely deep down the middle.
Obviously Hughes is at the top, but then you have at least 2 more Franchise Level Centers in the making in Turcotte and Newhook. Then after that you still have Cozens, Dach, Zegras, Suzuki, etc. etc.
With the Avs currently having a hole at the 2C spot and no immediate solution, its a very good draft to have a pair of 1st round picks in. Especially one that stands a great chance to be well inside the Top 10. We'll have a good opportunity to draft a Center that not only has legit 2C upside but a good bet to be a 1C caliber player as well.
We really should get a 2019 NHL draft thread going pretty soon

Agreed. Come on @S E P H!
Honestly, can we change the thread’s title. Karma will bite us in the ass so badly.

I tend to make it during the mid-phase of August, but if you guys want it I can make it later today?
Even if you don't believe in karma, there's no need to be smug. I'm fine with keeping the thread title as is but once it reaches the 1000 post limit I do hope the new one has a better title.

This is all Eugenes karma for pretty much calling Sakic an idiot for his "demands" on the return for Duchene. Whose laughing now Eugene. Do some cartwheels and high five with Doritos now bitch.

Damn, I honestly had no idea we were such a wrathful fanbase here on HF. Let's not kick the dog while it's down.

I do think some Avs posters should dial it back on the main boards. Try to remember we were the laughing stock of the league less than a year ago, it's our job to be better than the jackasses who mocked us on a daily basis.
Do the honorable thing and put that engery into bringing Leaf fans down a peg

Personally dont believe in the Karma stuff whatsoever and dont really care if we're hurting the feelings of Sens fans by speaking the truth either.
That team is the exact same team this upcoming season that finished 30th in the league last year. They didn't add anyone of value and actually loss one of the very few Top 6 forwards they actually had. They keep pointing to the Avs as the prime example of a team that can go from very bad to good in just a year or less, but they dont realize the Avs turned over more then half of its roster from the 16/17 season into the 17/18 season including the removal of a tonne of older guys who couldn't even find NHL jobs afterwards. The Sens dont have that kind of turnover and thus are going into the season with largely the same roster(I'd argue its actually worse) and expecting different results.
They may not finish in 30th again but they're not going to compete for a playoff spot in the Atlantic. Not with Toronto, Boston, and Tampa in the division. Those 3 teams have that division locked up for the foreseeable future.

What about "#SensWatch: Countdown to Hughes"?
Or like there are dance-offs and cook-offs, you could call it a Jack-off.
"The Jack-off: Countdown to Hughes".

Aim a little lower for Newhook. You know all that low expectations and pleasant surprise stuff.
There has to be some catchy ones for Newhook too.
