[Habsy]

Oh yah.

I forgot.

We’re drafting Catton.

Could do worse. I've got bad vibes off Lindstrom. Every time it's something we need it goes bust.

 

[Habsy]

He also said Lafrenière looked like he was on a PTO at training camp.

He did though

 

[GrandWazoo]

Interesting to see Catton ahead of Lindstrom in most lists now.

 

[Habsy]

There's more than just me concerned with Lindstrom's history and trajectory. Back issues at that age aren't good.

I suspected he would be the one to eventually fall out of the top 5. The other four are there to stay.

 

[Habsy]

Now of course he'll fall to Pittsburgh and become a stud

 

[GrandWazoo]

You don't have to tell me, I've been very uncertain about Lindstrom for a while now, too many question marks, and I don't think the upside is that high.

Catton is hell of a player and carried his team on his back

As you said 50-60 point upside , thats shit for our pick

 

[Habsy]

Marneresque though

 

[lecoqsportif]

Marneresque though

Catton? Would be a concern…

 

[Krustchev]

Catton is hell of a player and carried his team on his back

Is that some sort of dig at Lindstrom?

 

[WeHaveMoreCupsThanYou]

When in doubt, draft the OHL kid before the WHL kid and especially before the Q kid.

Beckett Senneke, come on down!

Really? Take a look at the 2020 NHL draft list, especially the OHL players taken before Seth Jarvis (WHL) at 13. I'd take Jarvis ahead of all of the OHL players taken that year before him (Perfetti, Rossi, Quinn, Drysdale and Byfield). I'd take Laffi ahead of Jarvis.

OVERALL	TEAM	PLAYER	SEASONS	GP	G	A	TP	PIM
ROUND 1
#1		New York Rangers	Alexis Lafrenière (F)	4	298	75	73	148	118
#2		Los Angeles Kings	Quinton Byfield (F)	4	179	28	60	88	94
#6		Anaheim Ducks	Jamie Drysdale (D)	5	147	10	40	50	32
#8		Buffalo Sabres	Jack Quinn (F)	4	104	24	34	58	23
#9		Minnesota Wild	Marco Rossi (F)	4	103	21	20	41	59
#10		Winnipeg Jets	Cole Perfetti (F)	3	140	29	46	75	28
#13		Carolina Hurricanes	Seth Jarvis (F)	3	231	64	82	146	44

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

Lindstrom has Lawson Crouse energy to me, i just dont trust it until he's 28 on his third team

 

[worm]

The second best player will probably be drafted at like 11th.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Connelly?

 

[GGpX]

Oh yah.

I forgot.

We’re drafting Catton.

I'd pay to have a LiveCam on Krusty if we took Catton or Dickinson.

 

[GGpX]

So, who are we hoping falls to 26 for us? Provided we don't move up or down.

Andrew Basha?
Ryder Ritchie?
Marek Vanacker?

Pray Liam Greentree drops to 26.

(He's probably going between 12-15, but I can dream)

Alternatively, in a more likely scenario, probably Sacha Boisvert.

One guy I don't want? Henry Mews. Stay the fuck away from me with that guy.
