The 2022 NHL Draft Thread v4 (Coyotes have #3 pick)

[Grimes]

Your top five is the same as mine. PK is an interesting comparison to Jiricek. I hope he turns out to be something closer to Pronger if we land him. Odds are against us getting Wright but I really hope we can land Slafkovsky or Jiricek. I'll only be pissed if we drop to four but even then we have a good chance at the other two. It's anyone's guess who Montreal picks after Wright. I'd bet $$ Armstrong has the same top three as us.

Have to think MTL goes Cooley if they get 2nd. They have Guhle in the pipeline on defense and Romanov is young enough. After losing Katkoneimi you gotta think they are going to be chasing centers.

I'd be thrilled to draft any of the players in my top 5. This wont be like 2018/2019 where you need to be in the top 3-4 to insure you get the no-brainer pick at least. And it's not like we will be 3rd to worst and get bumped to 5th/6th like other years.

It will be really interesting to see where NJ lands after the lotto and if they would be interested in Chychrun.

 

[Fyreman]

Well it looks like we will be picking at worst top 4. Would prefer a top 3 pick. Not sure if we can win another but who knows...

I think you've answered my question, BUT is that truly the WORSE case scenario? Finish dead last but get screwed by the lottery, remember- we're the Coyotes, we can't have anything nice.

 

[gorsk11]

If we finish in last place the worst we can pick is 3rd. If we pass Montreal and finish 2nd worst we pick is 4th

Savoie just got injured (knee/leg) in game 1 against PA.

Dang!
Time for my boy Geekie to step up.

He needs 3pts to tie the all time playoff scoring record for a defenseman in Slovakia’s top men’s league.

#1. Jagger Firkus

[Grimes]

Current pick placement:

1st (AZ)
30th (CAR) tied with TOR and NYR. Slipping a little without Andersson. Would play BOS if playoffs started
31st (COL) Matched with DAL
33rd (AZ)
36th (PHI, pnt away from 35th)
42nd (SJ with 72 points.)
45th (NYI with 80 points)

I read that as the teams being tied and had to go check. You got me, Grimes! You got me.

Canada vs. Usa 18s on right now 1-0 USA

 

[Grimes]

Carolina looking like they are going to lose to NJ. If TOR and NYR get a point today they both jump them. Carolina looking like they could be an early exit candidate

Rutger McGroarty and Cutter Gauthier say hi.

Cooley having a big day today. Howard too. The whole US team, it sounds like.

I only caught the 3rd period.
Cooley looked dangerous. His assist on Howard's 4th goal was impressive.
Fantilli stood out more than any other Canadian.
Hope to see much more of this tourney.

He was a bulldog out there, really be happy if we could get him in '23 if we lose out on Bedard

 

[rt]

Sounds like Kulich had a big showing today, too.

 

[rt]

Another point for Nemec. He’s gonna break the all-time defenseman playoff scoring record. He’ll tie with just two more points.

I remember when Dysin Mayo was a thing.

Like a sandwich spread that could be a pretreatment to clean carpets too.
