Description

Should the habs win the lottery and get to pick first Overall.

I believe a trade down could be an attractive option.

I believe habs would be better off with one pick in the top 10 and a second in the 20-30 range.

I have Arizona in mind as they have more than one pick, but it could be another team looking for a good center in Wright.

I would draft Nemec or the other RD.

We have a strong LD... but right now the RD is not looking good.... I don't want to spend the next decade looking for a RD. Like we did for a LHD during Weber's tenure.

Lets have a great top 4 in D with Romanov, Ghule, Harris, Mailloux and Nemec. We have Suzuki has #1C and Dvorak/Poehling for #2C. Lets run with those for now - and wingers are always available in UFA and in the draft - more chance to find a stud in late rounds for forwards.

I get a MASSIVE Yakupov feel from the guy. A lot of hype... but nothing to show for it. Exceptional status was also given to Veleno... doesn't mean anything.

Obviously - but for a #1C, what would you be ready to give up. It's not gonna be free aahah. I would love Edvisson, but I know that's a reach.... however, I don't know enough about the other prospect (except the obvious ones already on the team and therefore untouchable).

Edvinsson is untouchable for Detroit. Edvinsson - Seider have the potential to be the best pair in the leauge one day and I don't see Yzerman letting that go for Shane Wright. Beside Edvinsson + 12(ish) overall is Alot for the first this year IMO.
