What don't you like about Quinn?

 

[Raab]

What don't you like about Quinn?

I haven't watched him, but I've watched all those guys and thats how Id rank them. I think Lapierre is worth taking a chance on.

 

[Aerchon]

What don't you like about Quinn?

Isn't Quinn projected to go 10ish plus or minus? I thought him very unlikely to make it to 14.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

Do GMS discuss who they'll be picking / is it relatively well known for the most part prior to the draft?

When Holland says he isn't trading up is that because he thinks his guy will be there at 14?

 

[GretzkytoKurri9917]

It could. Each team gets 10 minutes for their pick don't they?

A lot of time is wasted during the intro and top 3 picks but the pace picks up big time once we start 4th and on.

 

[McDoused]

Isn't Quinn projected to go 10ish plus or minus? I thought him very unlikely to make it to 14.

Agreed. I dont see Carolina passing on Quinn if hes still available.

 

[MessierII]

Who the heck knows who will be available. Weird year for scouting.

 

[Llamamoto]

Holland and Wright were concerned about Hughes' size in 2018, so it'll be interesting to see whether they go for Jack Quinn (5'11) or Seth Jarvis (5'10) tomorrow, if either are available.

Jack Quinn looks bigger than 5'11, I'd guess he's 6'0 or even 6'1 by now.

Its called lifts!

 

[McTonyBrar]

Holland said he sees the team making the pick at #14 and doesn't see them drafting a defenseman. Nothing has happened to change that. Pronman isn't exactly an Oilers insider so I wouldn't put a lot of stock into his crystal ball gazing.

Pronman isn't the GM too lol

 

[GretzkytoKurri9917]

The day is finally here!

Draft Day:

 

[McTonyBrar]

Edmontons pick will probably be around like ... 630-7

No probably around 545-6

 

[McTonyBrar]

Wants: Quinn, Jarvis, Askarov
Prediction: Guhle, Holloway, Amirov

Why do you keep saying Guhle when Holland specifically said we dont want a dman

 

[McTonyBrar]

Agreed. I dont see Carolina passing on Quinn if hes still available.

Askarov they won't pass

 

[CycloneSweep]

Why do you keep saying Guhle when Holland specifically said we dont want a dman

He didn't say that.
He said he doesn't see them drafting a defender unless one of the defenders they rank highly ends up at their spot.

I've seen some lists have Guhle top 10. Without knowing the Oilers list, we don't know who they have ranked where.

Drysdale and Sanderson are also in the top 10. Schneider in some mocks as well

My point is, his answer was pretty much a non answer and we can't take much from it without knowing what their list is. Who is at the top of their list? With the amount Stauffer has talked about Guhle I guarantee at least a couple Oiler scouts have been talking about him.

 

[Seachd]

Do GMS discuss who they'll be picking / is it relatively well known for the most part prior to the draft?

No. I’m sure GMs as a whole have a better idea than we do as to who’s leaning where. And when McKenzie lays down a ridiculous “Look for Brent Burns to go here” right before the pick, he’s getting that from somewhere.

But the general thought is that teams will protect that information with their lives.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Looks to me like Quinn or Jarvis. Most likely Quinn?

Hot take though....would be Stutzle slipping.

 

[LTIR]

Jacked up for Quinn but will Sethle for Jarvis.

 

[Raab]

My guess is a guy like Holtz or Lundell falls to us, and all of Jarvis, Quinn, Askarov, and Guhle are gone. I wasn’t impressed with either guy in limited viewing. Don’t seem to have a lot of upside. If thats the case I’d select Lapierre and hope he doesn’t have long term injury problems.

 

[CupofOil]

Ok chumps, lets see your work...

Who do you want the Oilers to draft?
Who do you think the Oilers draft?
Who do you think is a sleeper pick for the Oilers?

WANT
Lundell - I see very little talk of him perhaps because few see him dropping to the Oilers but this guy could be what Jordan Staal was to Crosby and Malkin. I feel like a player like this if he pans out does more to help a team win (especially a team like this with high end talent already) than a skilled winger.
Would also be very happy with Jarvis, Quinn or even Mercer.

WHO WILL THE OILERS DRAFT
Holloway - I have a feeling that Jarvis and Quinn will be taken before 14 and they take Holloway. He fits the mold they are looking for of big, fast and highly competitive. I'm not as down on him as some others are, I think this player in some ways would compliment McDavid better than the smaller skilled forwards because he'll win a lot of puck battles and crash the net with enough skill to keep up. He might not have the upside of some of the other players ranked around 14 but I could see him being a good fit on the Oilers to balance out the forward group. Wouldn't necessarily be happy with the pick but if the others are off the board, I wouldn't hate it.

SLEEPER
Amirov - Holland has never been shy about taking Russians and this kid has that high motor, competitiveness that they're looking for. Having a good start to the season should raise his stock.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Ok chumps, lets see your work...

Who do you want the Oilers to draft?

Seth Jarvis...elite skill and the Oilers lack it in their system

Who do you think the Oilers draft?

Jack Quinn. I think he's the one player to fall

Who do you think is a sleeper pick for the Oilers?

Hendrix Lapierre...injuries slowed him down last year but having a great start in the Q...will he be there at 14?

 

[Canovin]

Would be happy with Quinn, Jarvis, Reichel, Amirov. Of course Drysdale or Holtz if either ones falls
