if they trade up late, I wonder who they would even move up for. Maybe Musty? Still think size is needed. First pick in the OHL bantam draft, good numbers on a weak team, wears a letter. Never mind, see he’s gone while I was typing. |

if they trade up late, I wonder who they would even move up for. If it’s with Toronto, I half-hope we grab whoever Blues are eyeing. TO is on the phone, hopefully with Chicago. Every player I was wanting at 19 was taken, so I'm not saying who I hope they get if they land a late first. |

not much reason to move up now unless it involves taking on salary.

I watched a lot of highlights of him when he played with Colton Dach in Kelowna, if he's there in the mid second I'd take him, but not in the late first, early second. The kid is a buzzsaw though, awesome energy and hands. |

Insurance maybe? Plus, I get the feeling one of Nazar ir Moore might get shifted to Wing. for sure one of them is a wing. imo, of course. Or perhaps a drumstick. |

Insurance maybe? Plus, I get the feeling one of Nazar ir Moore might get shifted to Wing. Can’t have a top 6 of all 5’11” or shorter. Not sure I love the strategy here. I get skating is great. But the last guy had fetishes too. How’d that work out? I’m sure the team will be fast. But can they hockey well? Time will tell!!! There is the chance that one of them drops out off the top 6. Plus, if there is redundancy they could always be trade bait. Plus, while we need size, size shouldn't be the only consideration. Svedberg? McNeill? In addendum, maybe KD is looking for size later in the draft or the trade market when needed. It seems to me that small players with speed that aren't all that and a bag of chips tend to have more longevity in the league than guys with size, no speed, and aren't all that and a bag of chips. It get what you're saying though; we will want bigger guys with Bedard, Nazar, Reichel, and Moore (if they develop). We just might not be going for it early in the draft. |

MyNHLDraft.com has Moore listed at 5'11" 195lbs, I've also seen him listed at 188lbs, sure he's under 6' but he's a solid kid. Him and Bedard will be close to, if not, 200lbs when they're done adding weight.

Him and Bedard will be close to, if not, 200lbs when they're done adding weight. "the hockey writers" site has him at 5'11" and 176. "elite prospects" same height 194. "hockeyDB" same height 184. an article 9 days old from nhl.com has him at 5'11" and 195. i tend to think the heaviest weight would be the most accurate for a growing lad. |

seems like the espn crew really has eyes on the 'hawks table this evening... Lots of scouts had Moore going in the late top10, Bob MacKenzie had him going #13. That's good other gms didn't bite and KD still got the guy he wanted. Now there's a goalie and dman I hope they draft in the second round, but I'm not saying their names, you'll know if Chicago picks them. |
