i know one thing for sure. no matter who we draft this year they are a bust by draft +6months.
Hughes over Kakko. Nothing against European players but it seems like this organization doesn't know how to manage those types of players unless they have been playing in the CHL leading up to the draft.
If we draft I see us drafting 10-15 2ho do you guys like in those positions and what are their upside.
Haha he'd actually be a great pick for us. Pure sniper and Bouchard's team mate, can play C or W.Not sure where hes projected to go but I hope we draft Connor McMichael just because of his name.

A line of McMichael - Mcdavid - McClennon would be worth it just to listen to quinnThen Connor McClennon in 2020.

This draft have a can't miss sniper?
It's unlikely the Oilers will have a chance to pick Kakko, but even in that case they might want to reconsider as his English is bad, too. TM is gone so it might be a bit different now, but it takes more than that for me to believe the Oilers and foreign players that don't speak English well are a good combination.
I don't know about his English, but a defender Ville Heinola (Lukko/FEL) seems like a pretty interesting prospect. I haven't really followed him earlier, but he's scored solid points in the FEL and has started the WJC-20 very well.
I mean that claim about Kakko not speaking English was debunked by one of his teammates who said he speaks decent English.
I'd love Kakko here.
He's very young as well. 31 goals as a 16 year old is pretty impressive.I'm still pumping Arthur Kaliyev's tires.
52 points in 36 games. Only Leason has more points from the CHL.
Sure, his stride is a little ugly and he's far from a two-way player, but he just flat out produces.
Puljujarvi’s biggest problem to me will always be his Awkwardness and his lack of puck control. At this point I’d be happy if he turned into Joel Armia.I mean that claim about Kakko not speaking English was debunked by one of his teammates who said he speaks decent English.
I'd love Kakko here. I just recently started looking into him and he'd be a great fit here. I would have no qualms about picking him. He's so much smarter as a player than Puljujärvi and I think he's absolutely a better prospect than Pulju was in his draft year even though he isn't nearly as hyped.
I think he'll go straight to the NHL and have a pretty good season right away. He's probably same tier of player as Andrei Svechnikov last year.

Anyways I’d love to draft almost anyone in the top 10. But I’d really like to get Dylan Cozens, right handed centre who has good size and great skating who drives the play and has a wicked shot as well.
