DevilMinder Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Ehh... I was dissapointed at first but if they couldn't find any trade partners the Devils have a loonnnnggg wait until their next pick and maybe thought Shakir was gone by then. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagknife Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Lapierre is a pass-first guy, according to the Bob Father. We have two centers that are pretty much like that. Can't have two guys on the same line like that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that's largely my problem - outside of our first pick, I was hoping they'd manage to do something to improve the team immediately tonight with 18 and 20. Instead we picked up two Fringe level players that may crack the roster by 2025. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guadana Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Ok with Holtz. Very freaking uweeeeeeh with mercer. Hm with Shakir. He is the best d-man in this draft who play in adult league and make biggest step. But he is so much to develop. I`m little bit sad about Reichel and ofcourse Sanderson and Raymond. B- for this draft i think. I prefer Marat over Shakir. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicomo Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Tell me you wouldn’t rather have this over who we took at 18 & 20... Perrault is a pure sniper with one of the best shots in this draft class. It's accurate, hard, and he can score from anywhere. His ability to catch and shoot pucks in stride when the passes aren't in the wheelhouse is a transferable skill that will serve him well. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would save a lot of humming and hawing. But since you can’t, fvck out of here with that nonsense. He’s got a 3rd line NHL player’s FLOOR; you can do a LOT worse than that at 18. Unreal locker room guy, hard shot, high motor, can be a bit of an a$$hole on the ice? To me that screams “the devils can trade kyle palmieri” Yeah, let’s trade the only guy on the team who can actually put the puck in the net. I’ll return your GTFOH right back.
