The_People1 Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 Guess the draft order from picks 2-11 and 28. 1-point for a correct guess and 2-points for correctly guessing the Flames picks at 9 and 28. Deadline June 27 (day before the draft). Please submit your picks and I will update the spreadsheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conundrumed Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 I think double-rob is trying to steal me heart. lol I'm hoping O'Reilly at 41, but Dallas will prolly take him late 1st, then in 3 years, we'll all be, "how does Dallas keep finding these gems"? All similar lists, though. Demidov is definitely the firecracker. Without question the 2oa. The question is, how did the personal conversations with teams go? I can almost hear it now, "Ivan Demidov's contract has been purchased, and he will be playing for the London Knights in the 24/25 season. That can almost be a side bet. Which overseas 1st rder will be playing for the London Knights next season? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robrob74 Posted June 17 Report Share Posted June 17 I almost put Lindstrom in the Philly pick. They got burned on an injury prone player before, so I thought they'd stay away from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pro sports teams are so incisive these days, they'll have 2nd & 3rd opinions getting access to a player's Dr. If he's a faller, that will be why. Otherwise, he'll go top 5 and gain access to the best medical staff money can buy. It's kinda up to them. It's either, "easy-peasy, it's just like player x", or, "there's a definite risk, could be like player y". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been also on the player playing through the injuries to try maintain his position. Injuries do happen and derail development. We've had our share of luck in the 90's with that... I am surprised I had him fall out of the top 10/11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otown72 Posted June 23 Report Share Posted June 23 1. M Celebrini 2. A Levshunov 3. C Lindstrom 4. I Demidov 5. A Silayev 6. S Dickenson 7. Z. Buium 8. T Iginla 9. B Catton 10. Z Parehk 11. B. Sennecke 28 Cgy. Sahlin-Wallenius Cgy gets a much needed play driver and a quality D man from the first round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manu12 Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Ok, I'll give it a try, though I have no clue how the list is going to unfold after Celebrini 1. SJS: Celebrini 2. CHI: Demidov 3. ANA: Levshunov 4. CBJ: Dickinson 5. MTL: Silayev 6. UTA: Iginla 7. PHI: Lindstrom (trade of 1sts with OTT) 8. SEA: Parekh 9. CGY: Buium 10. NJD: Catton 11. BUF: Helenius I think there is a decent chance that our second 1st rounder is traded to move up or down a few spots "28". CGY Miettinen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to take a guy nobody had at that position:) Fun aside, I like the package of his size, 2way play and beeing ppg in his first season in N.A. On most lists he is more of a mid 2nd rounder but personally I would like that pick at 28 or a bit later if we choose to trade down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conundrumed Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 I always loved Mountain Time starts. 5pm for you guys, 7pm for us EST heathens. BUT...rd 2 begins at 6:30am for you MST heathens and 8:30am for us kind, gentle and loving EST folks. I wanted to go to LCA for the Sticks and Picks party on Friday, but I've been shot down. Evidently, we have too many other trips to Detroit this summer. Apparently, "we'd be going to Detroit every other effing night if you had it your way" is likely correct. Pick your battles. lol It's pretty exciting to see where this draft goes. I think I'll stream the NHL Network for a change. I don't love the coverage on SN/TSN. They're like rabid dogs. Rabid dogs with too many opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu12 Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 Yes, got a nice 5 day vacation starting tomorrow and going to enjoy this draftweekend and the start of FA. And I could bite myself for not picking SJS at 11 yesterday:) I originally had them there, but then thought 1 tradeup was enough. Thanks to peeps and all participants in this little fungame, it's certainly gonna add to the enjoyment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries, I'm going to be here with you guys. Probably took the wrong translation, I'm not travelling anywhere just having a few days of from work:) But I'm really excited for the coming days, especially after the rather boring draft last year. Unfortunately it seems that german tv doesn't show it this season, just a recap of round 1 on saturday. So I'm probably tuning the good old fan960. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Download uBlock Origin first. You'll be golden, watch whatever you want from onhockey.tv. Choose a feed, if it sucks, choose another. Figure it out! I can't take credit for this advice, but there is a poster here that can. God love him, from me, and all of my friends. What's hilarious is the, "you aren't allowed to say it out loud" crowd. Why? It's there. Take it up with them. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceman1970 Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 My last minute take: 1. Celebrini 2. Demidov 3. Levshunov 4. Lindstrom 5. Iginla 6. Silayev 7. Parekh 8. Buium 9. Catton 28. Basha If Catton is available at 9 there aren't many players I would take ahead of him...not even Iginla. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
