2023 Draft and UFA Thread

Yeah right, San Jose will run to the podium for Carlsson and then we will regardless take Reinbacher. 1st and 5th overall and we end up with two meh players at the end of it but at least they’re nice guys and can solve riddles

They're not taking Reinbacher without moving down.

I hope you’re right man. I really do

Leonard Michkov Smith Carlsson.

One of those four I believe will be the pick depending on how the top four shake out.

 

[Habsy]

I remain skeptical. Wouldn’t shock me if they take Michkov. Jarmo is a risk taker.

Apparently Molson is meeting with Michkov tomorrow morning. Did the same with Slafkovsky.

And Lecavalier's gloves are there too.

Read that other places too

Aaron Portzline (CBJ beat writer) has been saying it for a couple of months

Probably another fever dream

Sundin is ours!!

Probably to sell him one of his condos.

Michkov ain’t going back to Russia. Sure Putin could impose economic sanctions on Canada, but it’s a little late for that

you have never seen him play so how can you say he will be a "superstar"? We tried to take the "superstar" once with Bustitsyn and passed on Jeff Carter/Ryan Getlaf, ,,,

Bustitsyn didn't have generational talent nor was he touted to be that good. Michkov is a consensus #1 pick in any year except this one. He is going to be a needle mover, not a mop and bucket guy like we usually get.

You mean Brett Hull.

 

[CH1]

Kostitsyn is the exact opposite. He was an unspectacular prospect but our scouting director was his biggest fan

I prefer to play it safe and draft guys like Komi, Leblanc, Tinordi, etc

C’mon. Sometimes you have to aim for pure upside like Michael McCarron and David Fisher

And Grant McCagg's favorite player Jason Ward.
