I knew you'd be high on Khusnutdinov, but not top 15 high, which doesn't make my ranking seem so shocking. But you killed me with Ozzy. I really thought I'd be on a bit of an island there. I guess I have my ROR ranking, which is probably more surprising than I thought. Ozzy rose a lot for me. Doesn't make sense to love Greig like I do and not have Ozzy similarly ranked. I put a lot of weight on upside, obviously, so that's why Dino is as high as he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Vegas looking to trade Alec Martinez. If we could get him super cheap (like a 4th), I wouldnt hate trading for him and then flipping him at the deadline for a second. Obviously its not really a big deal either way, but depending on what the cost to get him right now is, could be an easy way to profit..

I have been a little more vocal about my guys and reaching out to him in regards to the depth of the draft and what not so maybe it's a little more friendly there. I don't know. I think your list and write up was very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure lol. I know I'm not a fan of Brisson at all. I can live with all offense, no defense forwards that at least try some of the time on defense but Brisson just flat out does not care about that end. That and he's not a C, so in a class loaded with really good wingers, he falls hard in my rankings. He's gonna need a lot of coaching before he's even playable at the NHL level.

It's actually interesting how the variation works between what he sees and what I do....because he talks about Bourque's shot and all that good stuff, and frankly, I feel like every time I see Bourque, his shot kind of sucks. I think he creates a lot of high danger chances, but I Think it's becasue he's good about carrying the puck and possessing it into these areas. But his actual shot is just ugly looking. It's like a quarterback who can't throw a spiral or something lol. But STI thinks he has a great shot and questionable skating (I don't think he's a fast skater, but I think his mobility is very good). Even funnier that I think i was harder on Bourque than he was and I still had him like 10 spots higher lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I watched Bourque, the ability to carry the puck into high danger areas and finish in traffic stood out to me. Maybe that's what he means by his shot being great? He's quick to get it off his stick when he's got the chance to score in those areas? I didn't really see enough of him shooting from low danger areas to dissect his shot thoroughly. So maybe that's the confusion? He's great finishing but maybe not so great actually shooting? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But every time I see him shoot, I think it's just ugly looking. I don't think he gets air on it consistently enough...just looks like a knuckle ball. That's usually why I don't publish any sort of rankings lol. I've been doing the draft thing in the 49er forum forever since I got here and I've never published any sort of rankings, but everyone knows who I love and who I don't by the end lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
