[Big Daddy Cane]

This is going to be an Askarov blowout.

John-Jason Peterka, LW, EHC München (DEL)

I believe we can all agree this player can be removed from our poll. I don't trust someone who absorbed his twin in the womb. The upside of doubly strong human is not worth the risk of split personality mania. And are we sure they're BOTH good at hockey?

 

[Cane mutiny]

Voted for Askarov. Even tho goalies are a risk, no one else on that list has the same potential to take this team to the next level that he does. We've dealt with this goalie issue for SO long, it's time to gamble. I've watched clips of him, and he's a dream come true for us, if fate smiles.

 

[Chan790]

Voted for Askarov. Doubt he'll be there at #13 though, which is why we need to move up to get him.

 

[Chrispy]

No Lundell, no Quinn. I suppose we can see a debate on Jarvis vs Askarov, but I voted Askarov.

Solve the goalie position.

 

[Dion TheFluff]

may as well move on. Its gonna be a blowout here.

 

[DaveG]

No Lundell, no Quinn. I suppose we can see a debate on Jarvis vs Askarov, but I voted Askarov.

Solve the goalie position.

Yep given the options left it's basically a two man race (no disrespect to Zary), and I think most of us would prefer the team use it to get the long term fix in net in place. I wouldn't be shocked if we went Jarvis instead in this situation though

Most years we would be ecstatic with Jarvis falling there. May still be this year if he's that high on the Borg board. But it's hard for me to pass up on the opportunity to solve the goalie question long-term.

It's a lot easier to watch veteran after veteran come in to try and solve the problem when you feel confident they are keeping the seat warm for an identified long-term solution. I still have hope Kotchetkov could be that solution, but it's impossible to be confident with him not playing that much recently.

 

[MinJaBen]

We'll chose Askarov here because several teams' fans ahead of us made a mistake that I doubt their management will replicate.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I still don't think we will pick Askarov, so I went with Jarvis.

 

[Unsustainable]

Askarov if he's there.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

I voted Askarov because I haven’t paid as much attention this year so voting for “a forward” would be just that, don’t have anyone particular in mind. Askarov is a name I know.

I was surprised Minnesota fans were against picking Ask.

Just checked the Minnesota board's results.

ZERO votes for Askarov.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

I get it. One look at Montreal, the quintessential example of an elite goalie behind a meh team, and it makes you question that approach to long-term roster building from the ground up.

This team is in a very different situation.

 

[NotOpie]

Voted for Dylan Holloway because I think we trade down and he's the long term Jordan Staal replacement....either him or Lundell....who won't be there....

 

[Dion TheFluff]

Askarov has got this one in the bag. May as well move onto Edmonton.

 

[Hasbro]

Calling it as a landslide for Askarov. Thanks everyone!

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

We expect the management team to take him.

The management team doesn’t like his hop motions between the pipes and Askarov refuses to change it.
So we go another unexpected direction

#Dundonsocheap he refuses to pay for a left-handed AND right-handed goalie glove.

I can't figure out their GM philosophy either. What the hell was that Stall trade?!
