Thread:

I definitely think it's crazy to put Doughty anywhere outside the top three in this draft. Also, is Zack Smith, a top-six guy who's scored 20 goals just once, really more valuable than a top-pairing guy like TJ Brodie? I don't think so

Thread:

This is an incredibly sane list! Maybe the best re-draft I've seen on here. Do think Mike Green is too low though. As well, I would take both Jannik Hansen and Troy Brower over Kris Versteeg.

This is a really decent list. Marchand is probably too low IMO, though - as a British Columbian - I totally understand the anti-Marchand bias. As well, I would probably take Giroux and Backstrom above Kessel. But I could also see an opposite argument there. Might be my bias towards game-changing centermen who drive transition play. Kessel's offensive production certainly has been worthy of a #2 pick. I might also argue the choice of a bottom-six guy like Clutterbuck (albeit the best bottom-six grinder there is) being taken above a top-pairing guy like E. Johnson and a proven starter like Varlamov. Again, though, I understand your bias here because I share it a little. Who wouldn't want a guy like Clutterbuck on their team.

Nice list! I think the only choices I take issue with are Killorn at 26 (too low), the likes of Bonino, Hagelin, and Maroon (all mid-six forwards at best) being above quality top-paring guys like McDonagh and Shattenkirk.

Thread:

Nick Leddy at 17? Ellis at 15? Barrie at 9? How is Dumoulin so far above these guys!
Also Nazem Kadri below the likes of Darcy Kuemper and Richard Panik?

Thread:

What stats are you basing this on??? How is Giroux at 10? He's got more points than Lucic or Staal, and his PPG is much, much higher than either of those guys.
Also Marchand... below Matthias and Dorsett... Look, I hate the Bruins too, but....

Forum: Mock-DraftOct. 26, 2016 at 3:53 a.m.

Thread:

Klingberg and Toffoli are way too low, in my opinion. And having Cam Fowler at no. 2? I don't see it. Otherwise, I like your picks.
Switch Hall with Fowler, Klingberg with Faulk, and Toffoli with Bjugstad. Just my opinion of course. I don't mean to suggest that Faulk or Bjugstad aren't justified as high picks - they are - just that this was a pretty deep draft, and guys like Toffoli and Klingberg are pretty rare talents.

Forum: Mock-DraftOct. 25, 2016 at 12:49 p.m.

Thread:

I have big issues with Toffoli being where he is, especially with guys like Gudbranson and Burmistrov above him.
Also, WTF is Beau Bennett doing on here?
Most importantly, where is Brendan Gallagher? How can he not be top 10? Again, Gudbranson and Burmistrov...

Forum: Mock-DraftOct. 25, 2016 at 12:47 p.m.

Thread:

Why is McDonagh so high?
Why Jamie Benn not no. 2? How can he not be no. 2?
WTF is PK Subban not no. 3 or 4?
What are you DOING putting Sam Gagner on here?!!!

Thread:

Ooooo, my man. I can't believe Bergeron at no. 5. That's just heretical - especially with Weber and Fleury. I think Bergeron is much more valuable to his team than - say - guys like Shea Weber and Marc-Andre Fleury. Even Brent Burns - who is an unbelievable driver of play of for his team - is probably hard to justify over Bergeron.

Thread:

In my opinion (not that anybody asked, of course) Olli Maatta should be swapped with Ryan Murray. I think Maatta's done much more in his career thus far to prove competence at the NHL level. As well, I don't think it's a case of Murray having a higher upside than Maatta. It's not like Murray's going to suddenly become this dynamic Norris-calibre guy anytime soon. And Maatta's certainly a better defender than Matt Dumba. As well, I wonder about having Yakupov above guys like Pearson and Teravainen. I suppose you could make the argument that Pearson and Teravainen have played on much better teams than the disastrous Oilers, but then I would make the counter-argument that Pearson and Teravainen were obviously good enough to earn roster spots on two very good teams, a feat which I'm not sure Yak would have managed. I mean, couldn't we imagine that, if Yak were on the Kings or the Blackhawks, he'd likely have spent the last few years being scratched and/or sent down to the minors?

This is a good list. Of course, it wouldn't be any fun if I didn't have just a few quibbles...
Gudas is too high. I think it's a struggle to justify him being above guys like Donskoi, Sheahan, and Zucker.
Gudbranson is too high. Coyle and Nelson are, in my opinion, much better picks than him.
Toffoli and Klingberg are too low... they should at least be above guys like Niederreiter, Bjugstad, Fowler and Granlund (not that those guys aren't excellent of course - just happen to think Toffoli and Klingberg are pretty special players)

Thread:

Can't understand why Valentin Zykov is so high. Especially over guys like Lazar and Morrisey. Wasn't aware that he was thought to have that much upside. Too soon to know for sure, of course. Also think Bo Horvat could be swapped with Burakovsky. But of course, I can see why you'd have Burakovsky where he is - he's been pretty good thus far.

Forum: Mock-DraftOct. 25, 2016 at 11:29 a.m.

Thread:

Oh god, Hall's too low, isn't he? Ryan Johansen and Petr Mrazek above Hall? Can't see it. Maybe Johansen, because of the premium on top-line centermen.
I also think Brandon Davidson's a bit underrated on here - especially with guys like Radko Gudas above him.
Otherwise, your picks are good. Good list.

Thread:

Good list, for the most part, but a few concerns....
Kari Ramo? What's he doing here?
Dave Bolland's too high, in my opinion. Definitely could just be me though - it's possible I've undervalued him due to his contract

Forum: Mock-DraftOct. 25, 2016 at 11:22 a.m.

Thread:

I think Suter should be top-10. And for sure he should be above guys like Dustin Brown. How is Dustin Brown still so high?

Forum: Mock-DraftOct. 25, 2016 at 11:19 a.m.

Thread:

WTF is Sam Gagner doin on here? Good enough list otherwise. Don't think Perron's a top-10 pick this year, but maybe that's just me.
