I need Ottawa (or whoever they trade the #7 to) to take Geekie or Gauthier at 7. I'd be good with Kasper , Lambert, Lekerimakki or Nazar to the isles, but Nazar is by far my 1st choice.
Yeah, about the same for me with SJ.
I see it like this;
(Wilson Jr would rank them)
1. Lekki - Eklunds teammate; just a solid pick
2. Nazar - Guys a great pick for anyone, chip on his shoulder
3. Cutter - I think SJ would be enticed by to have a similar forward to Hertl in the pipes (big body with a two way game and a shot)
4. Kasper - Similar to Cutter but smaller yet has other benefits to the selection (I like both Kasper and Gauthier if Nazar and Lekki are off the board equally)
All would be great picks at 11, with Lekki and Nazar being "steals" for SJ at 11 that they cant pass on. Which as you say; I think CBJ would consider passing and go for another D (especially if they dont get Jiricek), I see the Isles getting the guy passed on

Don't put that evil sh*t out there and say isles are taking Geekie lol
Hey all I'm saying... OTT aint drafting Geekie or Cutter unless they truly want a riot in the city... like its quite literally a big selection that would cause mass fury. Following Boucher I don't think Dorian will even consider either top9 projecting power forwards. The continuous criticism Boucher/ the Sens got was constant throughout this past season (radio and TV - leading to local angst about his projection).
I mean there was obviously lots of talks to not hating on Boucher. Personally, I think that crap has subsided and people have realized he probably will be a NHLer (just a bottom 6er), and I think the hate towards him has passed and people have tried to find the positives. But obviously if that's the type of conversations happening on your teams radio station/ forums (with both Pro Analysts and joe blows having similar views) - Dorian knows.
But I could be completely wrong and should stop having faith in him as a GM.. We'll see lmao. Let's get
@csick riled up haha
Which to clarify; I actually don't mind Gauthier, I might actually like him more then Geekie.
