Lmao... Have fun with Eason

Easton not eason.

Seems like you guys reached for a player instead. I really wanted musty… sad that SJS got him.

I was hoping Ritchie would drop, same with Musty

I think that's the player Davidson was trying to acquire another 1st for. Would've been a great pick! I think Cristall is there next pick though.

Who I want with 35 is possible
Cristall
Brindly
Sawchyn one of those three is guaranteed to be there.

I'm Guessing Brindley goes to CBJ, But imo Chicago should add size or depth to the RHD.
So I'd be looking at:
Carson Rehkopf
Anton Wahlberg
Maxim Strbak
But Cristall has the best upside of the players available and I take him and make Bedard happy.

Give them a week and they'll be trasing Eason and a 4th for Makar retained

Jackets accept. Idc, I like bemmer but he can gtfu. Too many forwards. No space.

I think we should go upside at 35 and grab Cristall or Brindley if one of them is there and maybe use 44 to grab a goalie. After that, we can use 51 and beyond for depth and size. Whalberg, Lardis, Pekarchik, Terrance, Akey, etc.

Just take BPA while there are good players. If they hit then you can flip them for needs later once they are worth a ton.

For sure. Personally, I agree, but, according to Doneghey they have that "no draft list" which likely includes players who can't skate. I just hope they don't knock Cristall too hard for his lack of speed.

Seems like that is what BUF is doing, though. Drafting a very specific archetype over and over, creating a 5'11" or shorter skilled forward factory in their pipeline.
