Eiserman if Demidov gone and Ott isn’t going to be interested.

Are you worried OTT will want Eiserman at #7 ?

i know the player i want, im also not the gm.

still think it made no sense for the sens back then, but thats just my opinion

It will depend who is still available.

If your logic was so sound how come it hasnt happened once in the last decade?

You want to move up to get the player ypu want you have to actually pay and for the habs thats another 1st at a.mimimum and every single team ahead is going to ask for even more.

I would only want Eiserman at #6 or #7 if he's the clear BPA.

Who's the name of the player you want at #6 ?



It made a ton of sense back then.

Ottawa wanted a big-tall center with a long reach and Logan Brown was the BPA by a mile for us.

There were probably other teams trying to trade up to #11 in 2016 as well.

Depends what happens before #7 If Dickinson Parekh And Silayev are all there, they will take one of them. Not worried really. More worried about Columbus interest in Demidov, because if he falls to us. I promise you we are taking him without a doubt. Habs management is high on Lindstrom and Demidov.

We tend to forget that there’s still Silayev Helenius Catton Buium Ignila. IMO this draft would be easy to predict :

1 Celebrini ( Consensus ) SJ
2 Lindstrom ( Like Byfield no doubt easy pick )
3 Levshunov ( Verbeek type of guy and logic )
4 Demidov or Silayev Crazy talent BPA for CBJ )
5 Dickinson ( Sanderson comp + ARI need that tier1 d)
6- Eiserman ( MTL taking no dmen + we take the most talented forward left )
7- Parekh ( they would be more than happy )

bet 20$ on each pick and you would win thousands in vegas

in order, celebrini, demidov, lindstrom, catton, eiserman.

When was the last time a team paid a 1st round pick to move up 1 spot in the draft ?

Has it ever happened before ??

If anything, you're only saying that because you're triggered by the sight of this AGM ...

There's a lot of buzz about Ottawa wanting Parekh.

But I'd rather have Levshunov FWIW.

for real but can’t cuz it’s not halal.

He’s going to go in the top 3

habs wil draft a foward, 95% sure. makes no sense to trade up with them

Or we draft a DMEN and we trade one of Mailloux Guhle Hutson For A crazy talented foward

You sure? Because I have a good read about value's chart at the draft and @Garak can offer a link too!

What about Lindstrom's concussion he hasn't played since December 16, you guys are still sure that he won't drop?

Shouldnt that alone show how stupid your premise is?

Teams dont spend months narrowing down to the player they want just to lose him for a 3rd round pick. Especially one like the habs who have a deep pool AND almost two draft classes worth of picks.

Its just plain stupid.

A 3rd rounder barely gets movement on the back half of the 1st round.

2021 22 to 20
2020 22 to 19 and 24 to22
2018 29 to 25

The gap from 6 to 7 is way higher than any of those deals. A future 3rd is garbage.

Its the boston 1st+ or you can move along elsewhere

I prefer to keep things simple and use a calculator.

Oof... Pinto is worth way more than the difference between 6th and 7th overall picks. Also, that study you linked to is pretty out dated at this point. This is the study I use for draft pick values: Draft Pick value chart

On paper, yeah, the difference is about a 3rd, but in reality you'd likely have to overpay.

az might do that

I asked you for the name of the player you might want at #6.

And all you've done was beat around the bush.

Furthermore, at least two different Habs fans said here who they might want at #6.

The fact that you still can't is just plain stupid.




A 3rd round pick can be enough to move up 1 spot in the top half of the 1st round as well.

1999 2 to 1
2008 13 to 12
2009 16 to 12
2016 12 to 11



The gap in value varies from draft to draft because every draft class is different.

And if 3rd round picks are garbage, why do the Habs still trade for them ?

You presented your counteroffer and I heard you out.

You move along elsewhere.

hey I mean they want our first we need to be rough and not give it too easily no?

He won’t drop.

why?
