Flames keep Pelletier

Why does Dach drop? He’s been pretty consistent and he might be the best player from the draft so far. Also why do Heinola, Boldy, and Cozens fall. Cozens has also been pretty good but he plays on a horrible team.

Zegras was perfect at pick 9

WHERE IS NICK ROBERTSON!!!

I FORGOT ABOUT HIM

Kakko over Cozens & Hoglander?

I’d say it has more to do with his low offensive output over a small sample size mixed with his missing almost all of last year. He’s been good defensively but he’s still gotta grow into his offensive game. Problem is, when Kane is gone, that’s gonna be a challenge. Also, Dach really makes things difficult on himself. He tries to get too fancy and even though he’s 6’4”, he plays like he’s 5’9”, never defending himself and always being in vulnerable positions.

I wouldn't put him ahead of Hughes, but certainly he's at #2 at this point, as you said, so far. 3 points in 6 games including 2 goals so far is pretty impressive for a 20 year old. As is at the age of 19 years old, 10 points in 18 games last year on the third line before getting hurt.
