Maybe I'm reading into it too much, but kind of ironic that on the same day a couple significant draft nuggets come out involving 2 teams that were rumoured to be in trade talks.
1) Colorado comes out and says they're leaning towards taking one of 3 forwards (MacKinnon, Drouin, Barkov) with the top pick rather than a defenceman.
2) Calgary rumoured to be very interested in Nichuskin
It's interesting. Colorado trying to drive up the price by saying they're going after one of the coveted forwards Calgary is after, but Calgary saying they're in fact looking at a different player.
Could be totally unrelated but ironic it happens on the same day.
