Your basis is terrible.
You only heard him talk about RNH, but not Adam Larsson ? Kay.
No. He ASKED him what he thought about RNH, not Larsson.

Just out of curiousity....does it make sense for the Oilers to take RNH? They're supposedly small up front with Gagner, Eberle, Cogliano, Hall, Paajarvi. And they lack talent on defense. As much as they lilke RNH, it would make much, much more sense for them to go with Larsson, wouldn't it?!
The Avs, before they started to suck ass, were leading the league in GF at points during the year with games in hand on the other top teams. If they sign Flash, chances are they'll be top again (save of course another melt down season).
Would much rather have Larsson. I mean, what scares you more?
Duchene - Stastny
RNH

Stastny

I would also take RNH....the guy is elite.
I have seen everyone of his games this year and will be taking in his game again tonight.
Look for the Oil to acquire another top pick (top10) via trade.
I heard that lots of people dont think RNH will be able to play 5 on 5 in the NHL.. Is that true? If the guy put on some weight, could you imagine how much better he could be
Easier said that done, the only teams that I could see going for that would possibly be Columbus or Boston. None of the other clubs would be willing to part with a top 10 pick.

Oilers GM is in Sweden right now,watching Larsson. hint?
From my understanding of the situation:
Larsson is BPA, just barely. Dmen take 5 to 10 years to really hit their form, approximately the same time they hit UFA. Top pairing defenseman are more readily available on the trade market than #1 Centres.
Thus, there you go - you take a Centre in the top 2.
That's a poor assessment of the situation. Top defenseman hit the market as often as top centers. If you rely on picking up big pieces in the UFA market good luck.
By the same token, a guy like Gagner could do a passable job as a first line center playing between 2 star wingers.
Stu definitely has his work cut out for him. It'll be an interesting draft for Oiler fans, that's for sure.

RNH on Duchene's wing would be scary.
that's the kind of core you win a cup with... and be an elite team for 5+ years.
It's really doesn't matter who picks who because nugent-hopkins and larsson going to either team is a good pick.

Yeah Edmonton is interested in larsson. I'm sure he will be in red deer next week.
Hm so you don't want Lidstrom? DRW still laughing after the 1989 draft. And yes he took some years to develop. but after 6 Norris (soon to be 7?), one Conn smythe and 4 cups DRW think he was all waiting..
Larsson is the BPA and with their lack of good d -men Oilers would be stupid to pass him for RHN. If Oilers are that stupid then the next team can laughing nad say, thank you for the Norris winner... Oilers forward pool is too deep to take an another small forward.
Oilers haven't d-man since 1996. Oilers do need to understand they will not be a top team by drafting only forwards. The do need some top d talents too.
