Speculation: Your post combine pick at 5th OV.

[Goldenhands]

Assuming that Michkov is not a viable option for the Habs, who your pick would be at that point? (Im including Wood cause he seems to have a good fanbase over here)

I'd prefer we trade down if Michkov is a non-option and Smith is gone. But with those guys I'd order them Smith, Leonard, Benson, Dvorsky, Wood, Reinbacher.

Best option if we’re not taking Michkov. WAS is very likely to pay up.

 

[Mrb1p]

Michkov is not viable why? Because hes been picked? Fine.

If hes on the board its him and thats it.

I’m going full hipster with Oliver Moore to complement Suzuki down the middle

 

[Blame the referee]

Is we can’t take Michkov for whatever reason
It’s
Smith
Benson
Leonard
Dvorsky
Moore
Reinbacher

 

[skidcells]

I don’t think smith will be available to us. If he us he’s the choice in my pov. Otherwise it’s Reinbacher

 

[SannywithoutCompy]

I reject the premise and choose other (Michkov)

cool, another tread about the draft!

If both Michkov and Smith are gone it means that one of the top consensus 3 players is available. It’s the one you select

I mean if Smith is drafted in the top 4 and management has decided Michkov is too big of a risk to take(if he's available).

I really like Moore, but I would be surprised if he is in the mix at 5. I would pick him over Wood quite easily if Im drafting later though.

 

[Milhouse40]

I'm picking the guy the Habs are going to pick.....

 

[Scintillating10]

Leonard or Michkov I figure.

 

[Jack Skellington]

I think San Jose likely takes Smith so I'll go Benson

 

[WeThreeKings]

I didn't see Smith there but he also won't be so I picked Reinbacher

Stop acting like a kid, everything is pointing out in that direction, Michkov will drop and many teams will pass on him, if the risk factor wasnt that high, he likely gets drafted top 4 anyway. So thats a poll without Michkov in the discussion like it or not.

I doubt this will be close.

I would have liked to have seen a poll with both Smith and Michkov in it

I modified the option that allows posters to change their vote. If your pick is Smith its not too late to swap.

I dont care if you agree with the russo-phobic management of the NHL. I dont care if you agree with the MOAR BEEG managements.

I care about draftijg the best player, and that player is hands down Michkov as early as number 2 and the quality of player goes down incredibly fast after Leo and Adam.

I know youre not high on Smith, just like me, and thats whos going to get picked ahead of Michkov.

 

[WinterLion]

I voted for Dvorski. I just like the kid... but I also like Leonard & Reinbacher. I love Benson but don't want him at 5.

 

[Redux91]

I feel like Smith shouldn't be the poll tho lol
I feel like they would take him no matter what at 5, but just don't think he'll be there

It's most probably going to be Leonard, and that's fine too (some people have this problem where they go Well if it aint MY guy, the guy they take will STINK no matter what! and im unhappy forever) ugh

 

[NeptunesTrident]

I voted for Matthew Wood.

No players in that top, id say 15, stinks. This draft is amazing and we could basically ask a blind monkey to pick and hed pick a star.

Theres a huge difference between a star and a full-fledged offensive GOAT.

 

[Cubebrick]

Reinbacher, been saying it for months. Leonard would be a fine pick too.

The amount of temper tantrums this board will have to handle after the Habs' pick is going to be quite spectacular.

I straight up forfeit the pick if it’s not the Russian.
