Alright, I'm on board. Nichushkin should be the pick. He is a BEAST physically, doesn't shy away from contact, and his game is perfectly suited to the North American ice. Furthermore, Sven is going to need a linemate to create some space for him, and a Langkow-type pivot should be able to put up 70-80 points a season with those two when they figure it out.
This team needs a major injection of new energy. I don't think you'll get that from Monahan, Lindholm nobody seems to know anything about... Nichushkin looks like he wants to be a star.
Again, based on absolutely nothing but youtube highlights and some tournament viewings, but how many people on this site have actually looked at his game footage shift by shift and broken him down the way scouts are supposed to?
