I bet you see a little more pep in Wright’s step too. He’s gonna be pumped to not go to Arizona
I doubt they do that. Your top 2 centers should not both be under 6 feet tall.If HuGo don’t deal the pick, I’ll say they go w Cooley - has the higher ceiling w high end speed.
And they still needed the greatest year a goalie has ever had to win a cup.I have mentioned that a few times on the board: Boston had Bergeron and Krejci (Bergeron lite), so it would not hurt if the Habs had a Bergeron and Krejeci tandem in Suzuki and Wright. Throw Dvorak and Evans in the mix and we just might have solid depth up the middle going forward
Ya. People forget he was McDavid good at 15 and then missed his entire 16 year old season.No reason he can't be a ppg center in the league and that's great if it happens.
Above average speed but his lack of production concerns me.If HuGo don’t deal the pick, I’ll say they go w Cooley - has the higher ceiling w high end speed.
Jack will be injury prone his entire career , wonderful talent though.NJ should give us Jack Hughes and their first for both of ours.
Having 2 , 70 point centers for a decade would be great .No reason he can't be a ppg center in the league and that's great if it happens.
I think they should draft Wright at 1. I also think they should make an effort to get #2 or #3.
This is the draft to make a splash. get aggressive and pull a Brian Burke.
Picks 26-29ish and 33 are important.

I would consider using 50 to help grease a trade that gets a shit contract off the cap.
Stay the course and the keep our picks , no need to make a splash when we are nowhere near ready to win anything
Pulling a Burke will cost a bundle , no thanks.
I would only trade # 1 to move down for Nemec if some team is foolish enough to grossly overpay .
If that 15 year old was playing Midget AAA you could say he plateaued. When a 15 year old scores like Wright did in the OHL against 17 and 18 year olds? That's not a mirage or a one off, that's a harbinger of things to come. You don't have to be a generational player to be a point a game player and have a Hall of Fame career. If the HHOF was reserved only for generational players it wouldn't be the Hall of Fame, it would be the Broom Closet of Fame because they wouldn't need much space.Ya. People forget he was McDavid good at 15 and then missed his entire 16 year old season.
Could be he plateaued or that he is just delayed. Glad Timmins isn't the one trying to figure it out.
If there is a strong offer, moving down a few spots might not be a bad idea.
