I almost think this is meant to be a joke.There are guys in the top 20 here that aren't in the top 147 in the next list. I can't find Kecas Kraviny anywhere and he is listed 12? Dmitri Petrovich?? WTF

It must be a joke

 

Googling the name it comes up that Kecas Kraviny is a slur in czech, and not a hockey player.

Yup, found the same thing. Should we trade up to 15 to get Dmitri Petrovich? Lol Somebody was having some fun. Sprinkled in a few legitimate names to make it look real.

John Mustard doesn’t sound right at pick 14…

And there is no way Artu Scadoransky goes at 36. He is more of a 5th rounder.

And there is no way Wat Tambor goes at 49. His skating just isn't good enough.

And I doubt Lavi Lampi goes at 40. His hockey IQ just isn't there. Ok, I will stop now.

Mean anything with meeting today? Just standard stuff i assume.

Russian forward Ivan Demidov has a meeting scheduled for Thursday with the Montreal Canadiens staff.

This is what he told in good English to the media present in Las Vegas on the sidelines of the National Hockey League (NHL) draft which will be held Friday and Saturday.

“Tomorrow [Thursday], I have a meeting with Kent Hughes,” he simply indicated. He also admitted to having met with Canadiens recruiters several times during the season.

Due to issues getting in and out of Russia, they have probably had fewer meetings with Demidov than with any other top prospect (probably Silayev too, but not sure he's really an option for the Habs). 

 

Given that, getting a meeting while he's in the US seems a good plan... but don't think it means anything.

10th pick in the 2nd round to move up 3 spots into the very end of the top third of the first round ...

Seems reasonable. The Sharks are using their draft capital wisely. Quality over quantity.

I guess Chicago & Sharks have specific targets in mind.

Moving couple spots for picks, which seems odd for two celler dwellers, who likely should want to trade back for more picks to restock pool.

And Sabres dont need more picks do they? Would think they would try and trade UP if anything.

And given such a big variance on who goes where between 10-20, i would think them doing the deals during the draft once they see who is left on the board to trade up for, makes more sense, no? 

 

Assume Weber is entering Hall of Fame as a Predator, doubt he will be making Habs pick #5 this year, eh.

I think San Jose is moving up to better their chances of getting one of the stud defensemen. If they can do that while also adding Celebrini then its a great draft for them. A bad year for the Penguins to trade their #1 pick.

That sucks.

ones hoping we could try and move up  by moving Winnipeg's pick and a couple of NHL ready dmen, or additional picks for Buffalo's NJD, or Ottawa's pick.

What stud d-man is likely available at 11?

Dickinson?

 

A better shot at a top forward maybe, but why do trade today and not wait (Sabres had more offers for pick #11?)?

I think Dickinson is long gone by 11, maybe Yakemchuk or Parekh fall to 11? It is interesting that the trade was made today but maybe Grier will try and move up again tomorrow. Maybe a sign of a lot of moves in the works.

Grier will have Will Smith and Celebrini up the middle. What a great start for a rebuild. You would think he is now looking for that guy who can anchor the blueline.

I'd say there are 6 really good forward prospects and 6 really good D prospects. As long as enough forwards are taken, Grier will be able to get a dman that has a floor of a solid  #4. He also has picks that will allow him to jump up further as well.

Draft day!

 

Im curious to see not just who you guys want, but who you are predicting to see drafted at 5.

 

I’ll go bold. After Demidov and Lindstrom being taken at 2 and 4, Habs take IGINLA at 5.

 

A personal favourite of mine, I won’t be disappointed with this pick. 
 

would also like to hear which reasonable pick would be a disappointment for you.

 

Personally, I’d prefer not to see Silayev and to a lesser extent Dickinson. They’re fine prospects but as LD they don’t feel like good fits. Buium I would be ok with because I think he’s best Dman. 

 

Parehk and Levshunov fill a RD need so I’m ok with that. It’s going to be hard to disappoint me in the draft to be honest

Agree with all.

Wildass guess; Celebrini, Demidov, Buium, Lindstrom, Iginla...

 

Wonder what Briere offered Columbus for pick #4 yesterday?
