KD still has two, second rounders. I think he is going to try to trade into the top 10. Blues are rumored to want to trade K. Hayes. Reasonable cap hit for 2 years which coincides with Bedard payday. Blues send 16 and Hayes for Hawks 50. Now, KD has 2, 16, 18, and 34. Package 16 and 18 to move up to draft the Spartan after taking Demidov? I wouldn’t be upset.

They'd be lucky to get Parekh or Buium, maybe Dickinson. Levshunov is going Top 3.

Read some reports that Demidov is over 6 feet now. He has to be the choice. The more I watch of this kid the more i believe he'd be the number 1 pick if he wasn't isolated in Russia and more scouts could've watched him in person.
Buium has proven to be a big time player in big time moments. I'd be thrilled to add him along with Demidov.

Hawks have a scout that lives in Russia as all other teams do no doubt. Ivan won’t be coming to NA for at least another season maybe longer. If KD is still playing the long game, that’s probably fine. They should still be tanking and acquiring picks/prospects for another season.
I personally would see what teams are willing to offer for # 2. Montreal apparently has a hard on for Ivan. Can you get their first this year and more?

Yeah, but it's a coin flip if he comes over in this decade (or at all). Maybe he gets drafted to Ukraine and all that. I don't know. The Flyers goalie Fedotov took 9 years to get to Philadelphia. Drafting a guy who never plays for you is no better than drafting a bad hockey player. A lesser player might be the correct play here. Especially if that lesser player is still amazing, and he can actually help you before you're already in the next rebuild cycle.

The draft is supposed to be about getting young guns on ELC's. If you want the rights of a 26-year-old immediate UFA in 2030, you can just dip into the free agent frenzy pool at that time and do that.

And that's how the The Great Tranny Uprising of 2024 started. Russian flags, rainbow flags, some Palestine flags, and a lot of flashing male genitalia, since the mob will be wearing miniskirts.

I'd take Lindstrom and and whatever D was left at 10.Though LHD, I really like Dickenson , from watching the Memorial Cup. A big guy that can skate and shoot. Kind of a Josi type D.

If you’re not taking Demidov at 2, you have to trade out. That’s all I ask. I can live with anyone else in the top 5 or 6.

When did the Hawks get the number 10 pick? Pay attention. KD can make 3-4 more trades to hit 10. Don't forget, Hawks are getting Necas for a 2nd and a 4th.
