Who to draft!

[Riboflavele]

Ok... so I did a trade 2 weeks ago.


I needed to cut one of my top 3, so between Rask, Halak & Voracek.
Good goalie are reaaly hard to find, 18 teams, 2 goalies a team...

I the fact I finished first last season, I'm drafting last in each round.

So I traded Voracek+Jones+Steen for Hudler+1+3 round draft pick

The other guy finished second last, so his 1 round draft pick is the second overall!!!
I cut Hudler to keep my 2 goalies.

My questions is, presuming that Mcdavid goes first overall... who should I draft?
Descent player will be avalable, I'm guessing Getzlaf, Foligno, Pavelski, Sedin.

Should I draft a player that is allready establish or take a chance with Eichel!?

What sould we expect from Eichel next season, will he play all season, 3 years projection?
Can't wait to buy Dobber's Fantasy guide...!

Anyway what should I do!?

CHeers.

In my opinion,

Drafting Eichel will brighten up your future a lot. I project a 60 point effort next year from him simply because he's not entering a lineup/team/system that has really had time to mesh yet. So if the Buffalo pieces fit together and Eichel doesn't crash in a Tim Hortons with O'Reilly, I think it's fair to say you have a player with the likes of Tavares in your hands. His fantasy ceiling is nice and high that's for sure. If you think your club has the goods to make a run for 1st place again this season, then Getzlaf is your man.

Obviously, I don't have to point out that if by miracle, McDavid is available, don't overthink and cash in.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

Unless Getzlaf is available, I would draft Eichel here with that pick.

Eichel's number next year won,t represent the type of player he will become IMO. He could get anywhere from 30-60 next year, but still projects to be a 70-80pt player in less than 5 years. He is the best prospect other than McDavid in the past 5 years.

I second this!

Depending on the type of quality established player that is available to you I'd go Eichel

[GoNucks]

If you are contending pick Getzlaf, if you are 2-3 years away and in a rebuild then go with Eichel.

[varlytime]

id go with eichel over the field unless a top tier young player is available. For example id draft Mackinnon and hall before eichel
