Nichushkin with the Blue spick if available. No way you gamble with the top 3/4 pick. We need the star for sure.
Some guys who should be available around Blues pick.
Adam Erne - RW

Strong, balanced skater who shows outside speed and an excellent shot. Plays a mix of a power-forward and sniper. Plays with power on the wall and wins puck battles there.

Anthony Mantha - LW

Tall left winger with physicality and scoring prowess, as well as willingness to stick up for his teammates.
|
Fred Gauthier - C

The big center was going to be counted on for his defensive prowess and size, but has shown surprising offensive abilities
|
Josh Morrissey - D
Quote:

Plays an extremely mature two-way game, but you can't leave without feeling he has top-level offensive abilities, due to his skating, elite skill, and puck-moving strengths. Already pretty sound defensively and has a big cannon on the PP right point with his left hand shot.

Ryan Pulock - D

Has the size, tools and skill to be considered an early pick. Was strictly a forward until midget hockey, so there is a bit more polishing needed, but is a superb stickhandler, passer, shooter, skater and physical player.

Can you imagine getting Barkov and Gauthier then adding him to Jankowski. That sould be some big size up the middle.
