I'm not even set on a Dman in the 1st round. I'm not ready to pass up on a good forward to go looking for D just because we want a D in the 1st round. We could go ahead and draft 2-3 Dmen in the 2nd round and I would be happy with that.

If we are to assume that Hanifin, Provorov and Werenski were all gone when we pick and we absolutely needed to draft a Dman I would rather look at Kylington, Chabot, Zboril or Roy. I just think that Carlo has a limited offensive skill set and looks to be Steve Stantini like defensive Dman prospect.....not what Im looking for in a 1st round pick.

I'd rather take a Merkley, Meier or Svechnikov if they are available.
I agree. I feel like we still need at least one more impact top 6 forward.

Gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett, Poirier (possibly), 2015 1st round pick.

It all depends how everything pans out though, but its still fun to speculate!
