Would love to see one of those D+2 charts with both leagues in it.
Neo didn't make the first jump either.

Green text? I cant think of any prospect ever that was forced to the ECHL because of a veteran blocking them on the Wranglers/Heat/Flames/Knights.

Vets on the farm team are even more important than vets on the big club.

If you read the post immediately before FBI's you'll see that it is said that the veterans are getting the top spots in the lineup.

By the way, it's a 12 game point streak for Basha as he's on the board tonight already versus the Wheat Kings.

Now that the Flames have second round picks coming out of their eye balls, this may be a realistic option. Liam with a late 1st, Markus with an early 2nd?

I don't care if it makes 100% sense or not, but I want both Rucks with two of our four 2nd rounders, even if one of them is taken slightly "off the board" as people say. Because it's fun dammit!

Yeah im down for the rucks.

Having watched the sedins destroy every one for two decades with their perfect no look passes to one another I believe in that twin telepathy thing they seem to have.

Also Basha has 41 points in 26 games back in the Hat. Pretty good. Really hope he can translate that to the A next year.

I feel like the Rucks might be first rounders at this point

Liam could go 20-30 but not likely Markus, But I wonder if teams would be a little gun shy thinking they need both. If any team could swing deals for back to back picks to grab them it would be the flames.

Flames are in the unique position where they could.

It all depends on whether or not they like the Rucks individually at 20th and 34-37th or are higher on another prospect in those spots. But it kind of feels like a situation where if you jump on one you're kind of committed to the other.

I have a hard time seeing them not go in the first. Both of them.

Agree. They're both on pace for over 100 points and are (or were) leading the entire CHL in scoring.

I'll be astounded if they don't go in the first round.

Hell yeah Bash, i know you are reading this!

He plays lights out with a chip on his shoulder. I don't think he got good ice with the Wranglers. Hope this is what he needs is a line of confidence into the arm.
