So Sam Cosentino has us picking C Marco Kasper at #15 in his mock draft.

Does Mëds also hate Austrians who play in Sweden?

Looking in that 10-18 range, there's not a lot to get excited about. Looks like a whole lotta depth players outside of the top 3 this draft.

Well, Michael Grabner was a dud…..

But Thomas Vanek had some good years…..

Neither of them came over from Sweden tho.

There really haven’t been many Austrian’s in the NHL.

I’ll take a Switzerland on this one….. for now.

True, living in Sweden for any length of time can really fuck a person up. :lol:

Ya know, I figure that the reason so many Swedes have trouble adjusting to the NHL is because they read all these articles and reports about how things are in the free democratic North Am and then get here and it's nothing like what the textbooks and tv has shown them and they get all screwed up trying to sort it out for a few years.

GD Canuck Luck. How many top 5 picks have the Devils had in the last 5 years? How do they keep winning the lottery and moving up spots?

2017 - #1 Hischier
2019 - #1 Hughes
2021 - #4 Hughes
2022 - #2 ?

Even in 2020, they still got a #7 overall.

WTH, Hockey Gods? Why can't we be The Jeffersons just once? Movin On Up...

Yup. I wonder if any team wants our first for their first in 2023. Why waste a first round pick on this year’s crop of duds?
