Citizen Strife Verified Member Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 (edited) You had me at Ek or Nino. The Wild can't go wrong with getting either out of a player. That Nino/Rask trade still haunts the team almost as much as the Tuch dump does. BN has always been at that "outside of the top guys, but no slouch/safe pick" situation. I would be more excited by a Catton or Eiserman making offensive waves, but the Wild need a lot of different help at forward.

TM6975 Verified Member Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Knowing BG its a 75% chance its this guy or Sennecke if he falls (doubtful). But a D could fall into their laps too. Should be a fun draft to watch this year. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1GKappa97 Verified Member Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 (edited) Ew, no thanks. There will be more talented players at #13. Some of whom will also still have size. MBN is a great consolation prize for a team picking from #15 and beyond. Edited June 18, 2024 by B1GKappa97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy the poor boy Verified Member Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 I don't think the team should draft anyone with 2 last names... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnt Toast Verified Member Posted June 18, 2024 Share Posted June 18, 2024 Perfect, trade back grab him and take a swing at another player in the top 50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I seen one of Dumba's patented turnovers at the blue line that wound up in our net I'd think of Tuch. We chose Dumba over a power forward. Tuch was exactly who we needed at the time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnfaninnc Verified Member Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 I don't know much about the kid, but he looks like an RHS, and we don't have enough of those. I like guys who put opponents through walls. So, maybe we draft this guy but convince him that instead of 2 last names, we'll just call him Michael Tkachuk! That works for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoosesAreLooses Verified Member Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 He looks like a great player and fills a need but in most mock drafts he is going a bit lower than where we pick at and is not considered to be one of the premium talents in the draft. He is projected to go 18-20 with guys like Sennecke, Catton, Silayev and Yakemchuk still available at 13. I would be happiest getting Yakemchuk. He's a big mean right handed defensemen which we will need badly in the future when Spurg and Bogosian run out of gas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you feel about Eriksson Ek and Zuccarello? They both have 2 surnames. Eriksson Ek isn't hyphenated and Zuccarello only puts the first part of his last name on his jersey, but his name is hyphenated as well.

raithis Verified Member Posted June 19, 2024 Share Posted June 19, 2024 I think it really depends who is left at 13. There's certain players I'm not really sold on. Looking forward to seeing what happens on the 28th. It's not too far away now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekster (non-hyphenated helps) is grandfathered in and Zuccarello is only one name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
