Well, if that's true and it isn't just routine "checking out" of the player, then that could bode very well for us at 6. If one of Carolina or Nashville does take Nichuskin it significantly increases the chance of us getting to have our pick of Monahan or Lindholm, but also it increases the chance of Barkov falling to us as well. If one of them is a lock to take Nichuskin, all we need is the other GM having a personal/team preference of any of Monahan, Lindholm or Nurse and Barkov, who'll be NHL ready next year, will be ours.
