Here is a rundown of the original contest at PHR over the past seven days.
We’re nearing the completion of our 2007 redraft, one that has seen the results look a whole lot different than the original. Carl Gunnarsson moved up from the middle of the seventh round to a first round spot as he went 28th to San Jose which puts Ottawa on the clock. Who should they take? Make your selection here.
Gavin held his usual Thursday chat. Topics included Kirby Dach’s potential availability for the upcoming World Junior Hockey Championships, Cedric Pare’s torrid start offensively in the QMJHL, the market (or lack thereof) for Jonathan Quick, 2020 draft talk, Alex Pietrangelo’s future in St. Louis, and much more.
It has been a busy couple of weeks in the NCAA. Zach broke down several of the major storylines including the blistering start offensively for Golden Knights prospect Jack Dugan. The 2017 fifth-rounder already has 21 assists to his credit this season; no one else has managed to reach the 20-point mark. Several top prospects announced where they will be playing while Zach also updated how several top-ranked teams have fared as of late.
The next edition of our mailbag is now available. Topics I tackled included Henrik Lundqvist’s future in New York, what’s next for the Rangers, piecing together a Kyle Turris trade, Ilya Kovalchuk’ situation, and the Islanders’ trade deadline plans.
