[2010] Entry Draft Discussion

[Nick]

What's wrong with this Bry?

aside form GM's not wanting to put in the effort to do their own reading and prefer to pick based on NHL pick order (which isn't the sorta thing we encourage here in the BBKL) I see no down side to us beginning earlier.. the 5/6/7 rounds of the NHL will for-sure be done beforehand.

I guess it doesnt affect me one way or anyother as I do research but I just feel it is dumb to rush this just so we don't know where they were drafted lol. I don't see why that should be any more of a deciding factor than being able to read the ISS rankings. Basically I think its funny and retarded that we try to avoid knowing where people are drafted when it accomplishes really nothing as people will just look at the iss rankings and draft off of there instead. I dont see how this encourages people read up any more than they usually, people that draft off list, draft off lists.

a) not rushing... it'll take weeks
b) ISS, CSS, Redline, Hockey's Future, Hockeyprospects, etc not the same order, not the official 'value' found in NHL draft #
c) I don't believe you actually support what you're saying, or you haven't thought much about it.

[Shep]

Shit, I wanted Lowry.

[Nick]

Who wants to pick? I still have a list of players I'm happy with and don't know the difference between, looking to move back to early 4th.

STL 3rd & CHI 5th for a pair of early 4ths.

holy shit picks flying all of a sudden!

[kyuss]

hahh.. Marcel Noebels, the guy i left out in the toss up for my 7th rounder last year, fuck


and Chuck going swedish!.. Nermark is a nice enigma, i could see someone taking a flyer on him at this point.

[Chuck Norris]

Everyone left out Nobels last year...some scouts were saying he was better than 4th rounder Kuenhackl. As for Nermark you just cant ignore his skillset, had to take a flyer.

btw, it's funny we have ISS as reference, as among the official scouting services it seems the one with the most original ranking after the 1st round.
it's not like using McKenzie's list to follow some kind of consensus..

That pick went from kim to chuck to me, all within an hour!

[Nick]

So...I'm up? what is the timeframe on my pick?


Not sure why but, I'm not sure where I'm looking for accurate info -> seems to be 5 threads claiming to be the official.
