@thisisdanabc@hockeynhl27@kelsey_surmacz4 Not worth it
His talent level is nowhere near high enough to take a gamble on him maybe deciding he wants to put the work in
@_j_a_k_e_d Leafs Fans: Marner is the fucking problem!!
Marner: That’s a real nice record MAURICE FUCKING RICHARD has .. be a shame if something happened to it
@vic_blankenship@TheDanKingerski He’s another one of those guys that could go like anywhere
Wouldn’t shock me if went 8th or 18th
This draft is all over the place
@Flux_cc@Jeffs_Penguins That makes sense.
That’s how I feel about Belchetz
If you are just feasting on your size and strength as a kid that is not at all translatable to the NHL
@Flux_cc@Jeffs_Penguins What is it other folks are seeing that has him as potential 15-25 OA pick then?
I trust you with prospect eval so just trying to get the full picture!
@Crypto_Chase@OrderBookShow But that fractal would imply the worst is over, no?
The bottom last time ended only about 20-25% below that nasty weekly you have indicated
@Jeffs_Penguins Especially the defense- I swear there are like 8-10 first round defenders this year that I have virtually no idea what order to rank them
@HunterHodies I’ve see a good number of mocks that have Lawrence going at a spot that would be very reasonable for the Pens to trade up for
Bjorck is just such a wild card - feels like he could go at 4 or 14 OA
@TheDanKingerski This draft feels so unpredictable
If Bjorck/Verhoeff are still there at 7/8 OA then I’d say yes
Those are the only 2 guys I can realistically see falling that are worth the cost to jump up from 22 OA
@JacksonDog1127@Jest821@TheDanKingerski You didn’t answer the question.
In what way does adding Larkin move the Pens closer to being a “sustainable contender”?
Be specific.
@JacksonDog1127@Jest821@TheDanKingerski That’s an absurd way to view it
KD has repeatedly said the goal is to turn the Pens into a “sustainable contender”
How does Larkin support that goal?
