    Default Who To Take At 6?

    I have the 6th pick in my leagues upcoming prospect draft and I have no idea who to go with.
    I have it in my head that there's a drop off after pick 5.
    I expect the draft to look like this through 5 picks.
    1. Matthews
    2. Laine
    3. Puljujarvi
    4. Tkachuk
    5. Luc-Dubois

    Should I try to trade into the top 5? Or should I hold onto my 6th and draft Nylander or Keller?
    Who do you prefer between them both?

    Would depend on asking price to move up?

    Yeah I'm in the same boat. Been asking and the price even to get to 3 is massive

    Similarly tossing up who i should take, or if i should trade out myself. I won the league last year and got this pick as a bonus through a trade

    I would take Keller at 6, and it only makes sense to move up if the price is right.

    Is this for the league in your signature?

    I prefer Nylander over Keller for what it's worth.

    Id hold the pick and grab Keller. I may be in the minority here but think he has higher upside than Tkachuk and Dubois. The latter two are safer bets however

    Keller or Nylander... I'd go with Nylander, but it's really tough.

    Yes this is for the league in my sig. Would you take the chance to move into the top 3 if the price was my 6th pick and a guy like Ryan Strome or Spooner? Would you move up to 2 if it meant my 6th pick and Toffoli?

    I'd trade 6 + Spooner to move up to 3 in a heartbeat.

    I agree. ^

    But if you do not go with Nylander or Keller (I lean Keller), but if your signature counts you would also find good reason to walk away happy with drafting either Sergachev or Chychrun. You honestly can't go wrong with any of the four players

    Yes I would move Spoons to and 6 to get to #3. Would not move #6 and Toffy to get to #2.

    Are you 100% sold on Keller or Nylander? Considered possibly moving down a few slots and grabbing a Jost or Brown?
