<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mnwild1790</b></div><div>In a perfect world, I would assume that we take a Center at 11 OA and Kappo or Jones develops into the stud we need for years to come. But since Elite goaltenders are so hard to find, if Askarov is available at 11...I think it might be worth the risk. Since we need both Centers, LD's, and Goalies, I can see us taking the safer route. However, if we do grab Askarov and he ends up being a bust, I won't be mad. Elite goaltenders are hard to find and taking a risk on the guy dubbed the next Carey Price seems like a proper gamble if you ask me.</div></div>

That's fair, I guess I'd just like to see what we have with Kahkonen first. Askarov is a fantastic prospect and goalies are such an inconsistent position that I suppose it doesn't hurt to have a bunch. I have Mercer ranked over Askarov on my board (which I will probably post soon) so that's why I'd take him but I'm also way higher on Mercer than most people (he's 9th on my board)

And I've been trying to think about this for a while. Since he's supposed to be the best goalie prospect since Price, I wouldn't mind taking Askarov...but the fact that goalies are boom or bust, and take a while to develop, scares the crap out of me. But if he is the real deal...we can cross an elite goaltender off our list and focus on Centers only.</div></div>
