Had Beniers gone 1st, MacTavish wpuld have been my guy at 2. Honestly, everyone who has a top 10 pick this year is pretty much getting someone who has the talent that they could be 1st overall this season. Pretty much all the same caliber.
Sorry, I need to clarify. I did say earlier Clarke or Hughes would have been 2nd over Power for me. I wpuld have wanted to move back to pick up MacTavish rather than sit at two with one of those two guys. It's late. I'm contradicting myself. I'm going to bed. Good luck guys!

You have 12 hours so just either be on before 9am et or leave your first and second choice with someone. (Gentlemanly thing to do)

Mik can make me a great offer for 9th when he wakes up.

Will make my pick before 9am. If Luke Hughes is still there at 9, someone can auto draft him for me. Doubtful though.

Lytton, BC just hit 47.5c and that's a new Canadian heat record.
Las Vegas hottest ever is 47.2c
It's expected to be even hotter tomorrow.

Fuck that guy for taking so long.
Side note, I was listening to The Draft Anylist today, it was his Columbus episode and he spent about 15 minutes of it talking about how Edvindsson was too hot headed when it came to making desicions with the puck. Some guys take too long, this guy tries to do stuff too quickly and it costs his team. Curious to see if this pick works out for Mik.
I think The Draft Analyst is a good guy, he tries hard... but poise with the puck is hardly something that Edvinsson lacks
Analyst. Jesus, I could not figure out how to spell it lol.
That's definitely not the only person who has said that about Edvindsson

I can tell you with confidence that I would not trade Caufield for literally anyone in this draft.

I'll take this a step further everyone in bbkl's 1st round in 2019 I'd take 1st over everyone this year:
1. Hughes - Yes
2. Kakko - Yes
3. Turcotte - Yes
4. Byram - Yes
5. Dach - Yes
6. Cozens - Yes
7. Zegras - Yes
8. Krebs - Yes
9. Seider - Yes
10. Podkolzin - Yes
11. Boldy - Yes
12. Kaliyev - No
13. Soderstrom - Yes
14. Knight - Yes
15. Caufield - Yes
16. Newhook - Yes
17. Broberg - No
18. York - Yes
19. Suzuki - No
20. Tomasino - Yes
21. Harley - No
22. Heinola - Yes
23. Lavoie - No
24. Brink - Yes
25. Dorofeyev - No
26. Bjornfot - No
27. Poulin - No
28. Johnson - No
29. Robertson - No
30. Kolyachonok - No
31. Hoglander - Yes
- So 15 of the first 16 bbkl picks
- 19 of the first 24
- and 20 of 31 overall in our 1st round
2021 is probably pretty easily the worst draft class since I've been in bbkl.

Do you truly believe that Bobby Brink is better than Beniers?

Based on the info available on both players at the time they would have been selected I definitely take Brink. In hindsight some of these would be a lot more debatable, though I do still value Brink very highly. That said, Beniers would be my pick to become the best skater out of this draft class.

Do you watch these players, or just read about them? Because I watched both Brink and Beniers a good ten times before each draft, and there is absolutely no way I would ever have chosen Brink over Beniers.

Guess we'll find out if you're right in a few years. Regardless, I would rather not be in a position where I finally have the 1st overall pick and have to make a decision who to take if either were the best option available.
