Tuesday the 8th!

Can't wait for the infamous NS shout out soon ;)

I've been burned by prospects before. But it's hard to contain the hype. Great Weber interview.

Thanks Liger!

Gentleman and a scholar. Thanks Liger.

Hey Liger, any chance you could link the audio of the Webber interview?

Listen. I'm excited and I'm not going to have you or Doohicki pissing on my parade!! (emoticon with tongue sticking out).

So this maybe a bit creepy but I found the footage from a game Dahlin played in where he scored the 36 points in 5 games. It really did happen. Sure he's only 14 or 15 but looked amazing there. PS you have to be really board to watch this lol. He's #3 in white. http://sports.livearena.com/Content/Index/34624

This was more my thought. Not like Nelson is projected to play with Dahlin.

Would you think more or less?

Perfect 6th/7th tweener defenceman. Much better than Georges.

I think this season you have Risto on one pairing and Dahlin on the other. Give both pairings roughly equal minutes. Dahlin will look like the better D by Christmas.

Dahlin's head coach says his favorite trait is his personality. Kid hates to loose and is ultra competitive. Tries to win every battle and win everything he can. Also a good student of the game and listens and learns quickly. Hosts asked coach if he tells Rasmus to take it easy in practice but he doesn't listen. Coach replied with 'everyday.' Not just the immense physical gifts, sounds like the kid is a winner and constant student of the game. We need that attitude in spades to enter the organization.

Great listen. Thanks Liger.

To be honest, I want Nylander far far far away from Dahlin. We don't need his lazy, disinterested play affecting Dahlin.

Hey guys......we gettin' Dahlin!

God 11. My mistake. Good read though.

Doohickie is making the rounds. Be careful! I'm going with 8.

Fun police have arrived. Let's break up the party.

Haven't seen it posted yet. Here's a descriptive read on what happened inside the lottery room. https://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/inside-happened-2018-nhl-draft-lottery-room/

I'm taking McDavid over anyone as well. But I think getting that stud D is just as difficult as the stud #1 C.

Good response. No doubt Laine has had a great career thus far, but I'm still taking Dahlin over him. Winnipeg calls offering Laine for the #1 pick I say thanks but no thanks.

That is correct. My apologies Rakish.

But because it's so rare, does it not make it more valuable?

So if every available player from the last 3 drafts plus this are available he goes 5th? 1 - McDavid 2/3 - Eichel and Matthews 4 - Laine 5 - Dahlin I know D can be a bit more risky. But looking at teams like Nashville that kill it from the D out. I would love to build around a top end D.
