No worries. Hope everything’s alright

 

[Bazeek]

Removed Morrow.

 

[thestonedkoala]

Picked L'Heureux because I feel like he's an element that Minnesota is missing; provided everything comes back okay.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Since I picked Bourgault at #21 and he’s still there...

 

[57special]

Went Stankoven, but could've gone Bourgault. C's that might be wings in the NHL. There's nothing I don't like about Stankoven except his size, but at least he looks stocky. Really good skater, good stick skills, really good shot.

Add roulette

Chayka - sure thing top 4 defenseman to go with O'Rourke

They play the same side

They play the same side

Yeah I totally meant just like to add to O'Rourke but I did a stupid and said pair. Changed it.

Why was Florida skipped over?

 

[DeagleJenkins]

Samoskevich was my choice. Seems like the type of prospect we should be after. Offensive skills with decent size and speed.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Still a lot of names up there I’d be pretty alright with.

6+ months of center or bust in the 1st round and then you pick the 5'7 winger?

 

[BagHead]

Went with Zachary L'Heureux, myself. I worry that he's maybe another Bussieres, going higher in the draft than he should due to his physical game, but maybe he's another Tom Wilson instead?

In any case, I know very little about most of these guys, so I chose my favorite name. It's no Clutterbuck, but it's pretty good, still.

 

[Hasbro]

No worries. Hope everything’s alright

Just altitude sickness and dehydration.

Would have picked Bourgault with the 22nd. Not sure about his pace but the guy ticks alot of the Wild boxes - can play up and down all four lines, can play both center and wing, and has a good shot. If he doesn't pair will with Kaprizov, he can pair with Boldy. If not Boldy, he'll still fit with the JEE shutdown line.

Missing a big name on that list - Brennan Othmann. Also Samu Tuomaala.

So if I had my way with who was left on the list, we would end up with Xavier Bourgault and Brennan Othmann. Maybe not 1st line guys but 2 middle six wingers with great shots and reliable all-round games.

Othmann is great, but for me i think we can get similar skill with guys who can play C in Bougault, Bolduc, Samoskevich, and Stankoven. He should be on the list, for sure. I also seem him as being similar to Beckman.

 

[AKL]

Really hoping the Wild don't actually take Raty at 21 so we can get Bourgault and Bolduc

That's why this draft is so interesting. Alot of good/middling talented players with huge question marks on top of whole season missing from COVID. Bolduc (upside?), Samoskevich (play away from such a dominant USHL team and Coronato?), Stankoven (size?).

Also, I'm personally not so adamant of must get a centerman with one of the 1sts when I look at our right wing prospects. I think Lodnia is our best RW.

While it would by nice to get a C or RW, for me Othmann has the least risk while still have a bit of upside which makes me forget the position and go for BPA. I am also eyeing Samu Tuomala who is a RW and great offensive upside and had a really good U-18.

Same. While I still think he's a solid late 1st round pick, I would only pick him if center was our only lacking position. In fact, we need RW, C, defense, and goalie (I argue now that Kaahkonen is well cemented as a our 1B, we need to start developing our next goalie as they take the longest and we got ... Hunter Jones? Fine I guess?)

The Xman it is.

Thanks everyone.
