I don't see the Jackets trading Marchenko to move up in the draft. Swap Chinakhov for Marchecnko and maybe if there is a player the Jackets really like at that time.

I wouldn't. Difference in prospect from 20-25 ish to pick number 8 is not that massive, the cream of the crop will go in this draft class is the Top-6, the rest after that are quite close.

Far too much. Marchenko is already showing 30+ goal kind of talent and that's what you'd be hoping to get from 8th OA, but 3 years from now. The Jackets already invested 4 years in waiting for Marchenko so they're not about to pay to get back into that situation again.

I strongly disagree with you. Top 10 in this draft will be noticeably better than 20-25. Talking like a guy like Moore Benson or Leonard Dvorsky vs Simashev Brindley or Honzek. Now there is always a surprise or someone who over achieves but top 10 picks in this draft are STUDS imo

That’s possible but Chinamhov is worse so I’d want a 2nd instead of a 3rd

Obviously they're better, but imo the difference is not Marchenko.

Marchenko Is good and I added him for his ability to score goals but holy FK he’s not even a .5ppg player. I’d argue that any player in the top 8 easily becomes that and more. Even guys who will sneak out like Barlow have similar upside to him. I get what you are saying but you are hardcore glorifying him

Marchenko is > .5ppg player. Lol I mean I’m not even here to **** on the guy but he’s a 22 year that can score maybe 30 goals but will have 35-40points. (Based off goal to assist ratio). I’d argue that guys like Barlow who is a guy that’s around 10-13 oa in this draft will easily be able to achieve better stats. Now break into the top 10 and that’s 50-60 point talent guys

Columbus isn’t doing that, they need him to be a goal scorer, they have passers with Gaudreau and Laine, plus he is NHL ready and the 8th OA pick would be a bit before he is NHL ready, if they even pan out.

Columbus keeps the sure thing vs adding another magic bean, they want to start competing vs adding prospects.

Cool, Caps should definitely keep the pick then. Be happy they've got it and not Marchenko.

“Magic bean?” This is the deepest draft since 2015? Marchenko Agian can score goals but is still less than a .5 ppg player. It was just a thought but I honestly didn’t think people thought Marchenko was this good. I see him as a 25g guy maybe 40 points. Idk maybe I’m just lower on him than most people… thought I was higher but now. He’s on pace this year for 29g 34 points. His shooting % is 16. Hard to tell if that is sustainable also.

Yeah. I mean 8oa will likely be a stud. Damn Marchenko is held in very very high regards for a guy on pace for 34 points. 16% shoot. Idk damn you’d think I suggested Mercer or Necas. Like I said I like him but MF are SUPER HIGH on him atm. I guess I’ll keep an eye on him next year to see if this is a sustainable shooting %.

Cbj ain’t trading marchenko to a metro rival and the caps ain’t trading a top 10 pick in a loaded draft to a metro rival. Both are too young/ valuable to move within conference


Edit. Would both come back to bite each other where the sun don’t shine

Doubt it. If the difference was that big, you shouldn't do it, nor even suggest it.

Suppose I think Marchenko has more in him that this year with the crippled Jackets showed.

It's more so that you're suggesting the Jackets trade away a player who has proven pro scoring ability along with a 1st in the same very deep draft that you're crowing about, for a pick that will hopefully become a player that will do what Marchenko is already doing for them, but 3 years from now. They also, as I said, just finished waiting 4 years for Marchenko to show up in the NHL from the KHL. It's just non-sense for them to consider trading him away after he showed up and outperformed expectations. There's also the fact that the team was heavily affected by injuries and there's every reason to believe he'll produce even more as the team is healthier and they hopefully have a better coach in place. Add on that he still has to work out his ability to communicate and there is so much to be excited about for this player. He's also already an absolute star to both the fanbase and the locker room. Everyone loves his attitude and enthusiasm for the game. Keep your pick, Marchenko is a Jacket and everyone is very happy and excited about that.

I was more basing this off what the Capitals GM said he was looking for … tbh IF I was the GM it all depends on who is on the board at 8oa. I’m still optimistic that Capitals get 2oa. It’s also April and Capitals aren’t playing hockey I’m bored AF. Jackets playing style directly benefitted his stats imo this year. The more talent you add the more down the line up he would be pushed. He played one a line w JG who is pretty elite.

Doesn’t matter how deep a draft is, a prospect could still bust. Look at the Boston picks from 2015, 3 picks in a row and 2 of them are major busts. There’s like 5 picks from that 1st round that a major busts, there always is. All draft picks are magic beans, some just have a better chance of hitting then others do, but nothing is a guarantee when it comes to drafting.

He was also a rookie (who broke the franchise record for goals for s rookie) he still has a lot of growing to do. He could easily reach Rick Nash level of production

Kirill Marchenko: 22 years old, has hit his ceiling, and is locked into a nearly 5:1 goals to assists ratio (which is paced out to 30/6/36 per year)

Barlow/Moore/Dvorsky/etc.: wunderkind, easily 50-60 point floor, franchise savior

That's what I'm getting, and it's ridiculous.

Probably a bit optimistic to say he could reach Rick Nash levels of production. Don't forget that Nash was at over 200 points at the same point in his career and that was with losing a year to the lockout. Maybe Marchy can break 60 points next year if everything goes right, but 30-20-50 is probably more in line with expectations at this point.

He had 21 goals and his 25p would have him 11th on a very injured caps team 😁

Okay? The jackets were even more injured than the caps. Also marchenko started the year in the AHL. He only played 59 games in the NHL this year and still would’ve been third on the caps in goal scoring. He had a 1.3 G/60 compared to 1.7 for Ovi
