Leafs Draft 5th (Pending Lottery)....?

[Nick]

@CraigJButton: Craig's List on tsn.ca. Some changes so let the debate or the disagreement begin but no name calling!

Umm... Scary when I agree with Craig... That's the top 5 as I see it as well. Maybe Matt and filip swapped. For the life of me I cannot see Murray's impact upside, ditto on grig whom so many seem to love.

Also totally cool with galey landing on the 5 spot.

Yeah, the heartless Russian thing isn't boding well for Grigs. I can see him slipping in the real NHL, but not in our league.

[Lee]

Similar to Kabanov

[Nick]

I don't worry as much about his heart (well maybe thats what it is? Never thought that on my own) I'm just not sure about his game at the NhL level.., the same concerns i heard voiced about couturier, j.staal, RoR accept better founded... iMO.

Good game, lacks some skating and perhaps true offensive game against more capable defenders - now it wasn't true for any of the above... But that's how I feel with grig

[Shep]

Dumba fucking blows. If he goes Top 5, an NHL team will be making a huge mistake.

[Lee]

Grigs would fit in nicely with my anti russian agenda.

Which is non existent since adding Namestnikov and Khoklachev.

[Lee]

Yeah I can't say that I was impressed by Dumba when I saw him play the Hitmen.

But then again maybe I'm just posturing.

[bills09]

no Dalton Thrower in the top 60 is a crime.

[Arian The Insider]

button is retarded anyway

[shooker]

Still not agreeing with these ratings. Frosberg is still my favourite player in this draft.

[Lee]

button is retarded anyway

+1

[bills09]

lol at Finn higher than Murray.
what a joke.

[Chris]

Button's rankings are strange, but he generally knows what he's talking about.

If I can't get myself some good ol' canadian boys, the russians will do !

I'm stocking up on the Swiss.

Nino and Sven!

[bills09]

[KapG]

There's one vodka drinker I don't want lol

[The BBKL Insider]

Interesting, Grips down to the mid teens, and as much as i love Dumba he shouldn't be at 2.

I think you'll see Alex go 2nd TBH

[thom54]

I think w/ Galy it'll come down to who has what pick. Some teams are more risk friendly (See Ottawa w/ Cowen and TBAY w/ Connoly) and others are not. There seems to be a good chance that picks are moved this year in the top5 (always seems that way doesn't it though...)

Some scouting departments HAVE to see a guy 20+ times to make a selection (1st round) while others are more forgiving if it's due to a reasonable IR. Going to be a really interesting draft from that perspective.

Also who the FUCK knows what NYI will do.
