COLE CAUFIELD HAS OFFICIALLY ARRIVED, BUT WHO WAS DRAFTED BEFORE HIM? What Are YOUR Thoughts On Cole Caufield? And Where Would YOU Select Caufield In a Redraft? I'd LOVE to Hear YOUR Thoughts! #GravGang #RoadTo50kSUBS
Grav the way I see it is that zegras had a better nhl start with 13p in 24g then Caufields 5 in 10also zegras was a +6 on a terrible Anaheim team and Caufield was a -1 with the habs also he was a -6 in the playoffs on a finals team
I would have Caufield taken 4th overall by the Colorado Avalanche
@@sammonkman9739 but in playoff caufield dominate whit suzuki, i think you dont wtaxh any game of caufield
Don’t forget Anaheim has had some of the worst power plays of all time the last 2 seasons
@@Antoine-rd6fn Ngl I only watched a couple canadiens playoff games weren’t in to the playoffs that much this year. From what I’ve heard Caufields been great but the stats don’t lie
I mean, he hasn’t even played his rookie season yet, so let’s not jump to conclusions, but yes, he looks like he is gonna be a stud
7 goals in 9 games so far, he's doing really good in the NHL I would say
:)
He's as good as Connor McDavid.
@@cedrikthibert7033 XDDDDDDDD, US HABS FANS WISH
And Dach is also with the canadians 😂
@@AKAKATTACK_YT im a habs fan and nobody is as good as mcdavid. Mcdavid is godlike
Think this video is premature by at least a year. I’m not saying that Cole Caulfield isn’t looking like a star (he absolutely is, albeit in a small sample size). I think it’s unfair to critique these players and teams when most of them haven’t played a single NHL game yet.
Facts daddy
Facts, this makes me nervous as a Habs fan.
@@nicolastomas8436 Nah mate you'll enjoy Caufield for a long time. I've been following hockey since I could walk and I'll tell you he is tje real deal. You can always play what if, but picking Caufield at 15. Just enjoy it man. He will score in the hundreds for your franchise.
How about now?
One year later Lol in Podkolzin being the worse pick (He not Caulfield but is a fine budding power forward ) Podkolzin seem to be a rare benning win
I love the caufield pick for a different reason, his god damn smile that shit lights up a room. i love his natural ability to score of course, but that smile is infectious his energy as well *chefs kiss*
The production in this video was incredible! Well deserved for a upcoming star like Cole
Great video Grav!
Thanks Cole! Means a lot coming from a goat ;)
Absolutely LOVE the intro. One of the best I’ve seen in a while and the entire video was great. Good job!👏👏
I think this video is premature, most guys taken before him haven’t even gotten the chance to prove themselves in the league yet, and there’s no telling how many can reach or exceed Caufield’s current level
But there’s a reason why he’s playing before all of these guys
@@BPrairie maybe for some of the forward but when it comes to defensman they usually take longer to develop so it’s hard to compare the picks to him at this time
@@BPrairie Well nils hoglander came into the nhl last season and he was drafted in the second round.
a car feels maybe the best scorer but there's better player than him in the draft
Broberg is going to shut so many haters up when he breaks into the NHL
@Samuel Marchand 🤣🤣🤣
@Samuel Marchand lmao chill haha
I have a Philadelphia fan friend (i’m a Montreal fan) and we watch the draft together, ive never seen someone switch emotions so fast. He was so happy when they said USA development program and then was so pissed off and upset when they said cam York, for a second I saw on his face “WE PICKED CAUFIELD”. Let’s just say he didn’t appreciate me celebrating our pick
That's a FANTASTIC story man, I had the same thought when I was watching the draft, IT HAD TO BE CAUFIELD!!
Lol
He can’t be mad a cam York tho pretty good potential I see him winning a Norris in the future
SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAME. im a flyers fan and we really needed a pure sniper. and it just so happened one fell to us at the 14th pick. i didnt care how "small" he is. weve had small scorers before in briere and gagne and before all the recent trades this year i THOUGHT we had a good young core of d-men coming up in our system with more on the way. so i got real pissed we passed on caufield for a defenseman. and got pissed more after seeing him on the run montreal went on this post season. but you cant hate this kid. i really love the way he plays the game and really love watching him play. and i guess fletcher got jealous and went and got cam atkinson.
@@enasty1257 when I see so much heat for him online I never think that it’s because of caufield, but rather it is because Montreal is the one lucky enough to draft him from him dropping that low.
A Canucks PP of Caufield, Q. Hughes, Hoglander, Pettersson and Garland would be hilariously small but so deadly. I'm a big Caufield fan but glad the Canucks got a solid power forward in Podkolzin.
Podkolzin will be the better player.. his upside as a powerforward and leader are huge.. plus he kills penalties. Dude is an absolute beast
@@aaronevans9698 canucks don’t really need goalscoring either. Podkolzin may do that but the Canucks have petey, boeser, garland, and Miller to score. Horvat now has a lot of defensive play lifted off his shoulders and he is amazing offensively too. Dickinson and Pearson will kill penalties. And podkolzin will be a great power forward for them. I think he’s a perfect fit for the canucks
@@nilshoglander8254 With a year and 5 games of Podkolzin he is a better fit Vancouver needs guys who can hit and open up ice. Podkolzin loooks very good with Pettersson too. I think another high skill small guy isn't as good a fit. That said Cole is a great player but Podkolzin is something else
@@Jackthgun I mean podkolzin is one of my favourite players. I love everything about the guy he’s awesome.
@@aaronevans9698 lol, that's pretty arguable given theyre not even the same type of player. Plus Caufield is already a PPG player and has more goals this season in 26 games than Podkolzin has in his whole NHL career after 95 games. Theyre the same age and Caufield is already a top line player while Podkolzin is back in the AHL
in 2 years, Why Were 50 Players Drafted Before Aatu Räty? Thats gonna be a bit longer video
Oh don't worry, I'm already prepared to make it 😂
Podkolzins potential is a lot higher than a “decent middle 6 guy”. He’s not “one of the worst picks”. Not sure why you’re saying those things but he’s going to be a fantastic player if everything pans out.
Vasily is already penned in as a middle 6 forward next year, he’s definitely got top line potential. Power forwards are highly coveted in today’s game.
He was dominant like lafreniere. Only reason he was drafted so late was because of the Russia uncertainty. He’s a great pick and and has potential to be a great top 6 player.
Some rankers had Podkolzin as high as number 2 overall in the draft. Him dropping to Vancouver at 10th was an absolute gift from the first 9 teams drafting before. If he wasnt available who knows maybe they would have taken caulfield. Personally I'd rather have the size and defensive responsiblity that Podkolzin brings.
Couldn't agree more with you man
Yeah it's pretty funny to make a video trying to rank 20-year-olds. Many of these guys haven't even played their rookie season yet, including Caufield. It'll take like 5 more years to really see which picks were hits and which were misses.
I actually find it quite funny that caulfield and dach are now team mates in Montreal. That line is bloody deadly and solid. I am not a Montreal fan at all but roommate is a huge habs fan. The Cole Caufield Suzuki, dach line is one of the best currently in the NHL.
On Cole Caulfield he truly stepped it up after St.Louis became the coach of the habs and who is Coles favorite player, his performance has been stellar since that move happened.
Definitely still happy with Seider over Caufield for Detroit!
detroit needed a d man. montreal needed a forward
No problems with that pick ✅
Seider is overhyped at the moment. Sure he’s great overseas but he hasn’t played a single minute in the NHL. Let him play first
@@Redwing47 caufield dominate whit suzuki your wings are so bad
@@Redwing47 caufield a botton six… you dont know hockey…keed dreaming
Don’t sleep on soderstrom, he played really good in the games he played in the nhl
I’m so happy people are beginning to talk about Cole Caufield. He’s shaping up to be a great player and I couldnt be happier that Montreal chose him (im a Habs fan 🙂)
You should be happy for sure, Caufield's one heck of a player!
Still too early to judge these picks imo, even Caulfield
Habs fan here. Agreed that it's premature at the moment. Caufield was fantastic in these playoffs, so we don't have to worry about him getting "destroyed" by bigger players. He'll be fine in the regular season, where skill is more important than toughness. And since he plays with Suzuki, I'm sure he'll put up impressive numbers with him.
Welp now dach and caufield are on the same team, extremely happy about this as a habs fan😂😂😂
As a Flyers fan that draft was certainly a rollercoaster of emotions, but seeing what York accomplished this year helped. Big 10 D-man of the year, Captaining Team USA to WJC gold while being one of the better producers in the tournament, and a solid showing in the AHL and NHL went a long way towards softening the blow. And while I think Cole is objectively the better player of the two, Yam Cork is probably more suited to the team's current needs anyway. All things considered it worked out about as well as it could for us imo
Caufield is probably better but Cam York is great, one of the players that impressed me the most in the WJC great leadership, very capable defender and floor general
Yam Cork lol
Caufield should’ve been in the top 10
I mean. If we look at where players would go today. He’s going top 5 with seider, zegras and probably Hughes and whoever
@@azsl31 not really
@@Random-yb5di yes really
@@Random-yb5di Absolutely really lmao. I had him in my top 5, him and Hughes were killing it.
@@SnipeCity top 10 actually is pretty accurate but top 5 is not a chance.
13:30 now Kirby Dach himself is on Canadiens 1st line with Caufield & Suzuki 🤩🔥💯
At the draft I was so mad when Vancouver picked Podz over CC but Vancouver has enough small skill we needed some young players who have size
exactly
Size is never bad to have, I think Pod will still fit well with VAN!
Montreal has Caufield and Dach now. Brilliant.
and now Dach is playing on the same line as Caufield...WICKED combo!
Feel like caufield hasn’t played long enough to deserve a video like this but still great vid
you didnt see him play last playoff run then
I didnt say he was bad during his time playing, I’m just saying 30 nhl games is not even half of a full season. If next season he plays good or even better, than a video like this would be justified
It would not surprise to see Matt Boldy outproduce him
great take
Now that's BOLD, I think there's a decent chance Boldy becomes the better 2-way player though
You mean for a season or career?
Still possible he is a Power forward with skill and a heck of a nose for the net he definitly could surprise many people
Hey Nathan it’s me Anthony! Wow this intro is insane! You must’ve edited this for hours so I 100% appreciate that a lot! You are my go to hockey UA-camr and I wanna thank you for all the content! You make this community amazing!

NO RUBER
@@conemerchant 39……35……..39
@@anthonypalumbo2988 u want do it raw?
@@conemerchant Raw? What’s that?
In hindsight this draft was craaazy strong
I always found the hindsight 20/20 reactions to be really ridiculous. First we are talking about players that are still raw. The draft was only 2 years ago. Most of these players are just turning 20. Not to mention the sample size is poor at best. The top 2 pick were the consensus top 2 in the draft. Looking back and stating they made a "mistake" to taking a player with these picks is hypocritical. Considering that an overwhelming majority of the people that report on hockey like yourself had them where they were picked. Players develop at different rates. Just because this kid can put the puck in the net there is much more to the game of hockey. Just my opinion of course.
Just your opinion you say but you just chastised this guy for giving his opinion
@@samspade4050 and you're trying to chastise him for his. see how opinions work?
@@least.insane.femboy lol reading comprehension is not you strong suit I see
Seider just won the Calder Trophy.
My Habs got Dach. Will thrive under St. Louis.
Hughes > CC
Kakko > CC
Boldy > CC
Knight > CC
Podkolzin > CC
Zegras > CC
Seider > CC
Byram > CC
Turcotte > CC
In my mind people are way overacting. This guy scores yes. But the fact that in montreal he had alot of issues he needs to deal with to play that good in 82 games. Overall these players fit better to their teams or was more valuble than Caulfield is to be picked before them. Podkolzin is gonna be an amazing top 6 player. So will boldy. The other guys i named have even safer overall play. And more valuble.
i agree with all except podkolzin, i think hes valeri nichushkin #2... phsyical third liner with motivation issues. byram also looks pretty bad especially over Seider and Zegras
Nailed the Dylan Holloway prediction 9:34
While I think Caufield is great, the only players that were picked ahead of him who look shaky at the moment are Broberg and maybe Byram
Love the great format my dude!!!
Subscribed my mans
Now Dach and Caufield are playing great hockey together :D
Wanted him for the Sabres going into the draft but I understand why they went for Cozens when their pick came up. Anaheim and Vancouver get passes because Cozens Zegras and Podkolzin were seen as around caufield’s level at the time. But for me based on what info we had at the draft, Detroit (because no one knew how good seider really was), Edmonton, and everyone from 11-14 don’t really have an excuse for passing on caufield
In all fairness us fans had no idea how good Seider was gonna turn out. Steve Yzerman and the Wings scouting department did though.
Panthers are loaded in their top 9 and grabbed the best goalie in the draft?
I say panthers have an excuse. At the moment they just had Luongo retire and didn’t have any top goalie prospects. Then after drafting knights they then sign bob.
@@GabeDover1306 that’s kinda fair
@@dereklasker5350 Canucks need power forward I'd they drafted Cole the team gets smaller
I love these type of videos
Seiders gonna win the Calder
Many were against Bergevin , but he's the one who made two huge steals Suzuki and Caufield.
Take a shot every time “Cole Caufield” is mentioned
Seider > Caufield
Ok body ahahah
Let's see Seider play an NHL game first
So true
two different player, even if I am a habs fan and really love cole caufield, I’m really excited to see seider perform in the nhl!
Possibly but only 1 has shown they can play in the nhl so far . A prospect is just a prospect until they make the nhl
Hey Grav! I loved this intro and the style of video this was! I really really recommend mixing up voice over + highlights in the future as well! This develops you as a content creator and especially your story telling ability improves! B) These kind of vids are way more entertaining to watch, obviously adding up to that your great knownledge of nhl and hockey in general which is why I subscribet you in the first place back at 1.1k subs :)!
So far I've watched only your lives and your videos I've been watching as podcasts almost on car rides to work etc. These kind of videos would bring a lot more depth to what you could offer as a content creator! :) Just an opinion I thought would be good to share with you!
Cole Caufield was one of my top choices going into the draft in 2019, along with Zegras. Would have been very happy with both picks, but that said, if we were doing a redraft and Seider fell to the Wings again at 6th, I'm still taking him at this point, regardless of whether those other two are available or not. We've been missing that elite all-situation monster on our blueline since Lidstrom retired, and with the way his development is currently going, there's an excellent opportunity to rectify that problem.
1.Jack Hughes 2. Trevor Zegras 3. Cole Caulfield 4. Moritz Seider
Seider over Caufeild. Seider is more rare
Isn't bowen byrum in this draft . . .
@@adrianskowronski4492 yeah
I love that your willing to dig deep like this... we could talk hockey all day long. And the cole caulfield will be one of those players that will show the nhl that 5’8 players will be more valuable when they have the skill and stats to be picked 1st overall pick
So glad we have dach and cole
I think you might have to eat your hat on Vasily Podkolzin and Matt Boldy...love your channel btw
Jack Hughes: On the rise to become an elite center for the New Jersey Devils
Kaapo Kakko: Struggling in development, but has a ceiling of a quality 1st line winger
Kirby Dach: Missed the entire season with injury, but has breakout potential
Bowen Byram: Long shot of fulfilling potential due to Colorado’s immense depth
Alex Turcotte: Bumped down to 2nd line potential due to Byfield’s potential
Moritz Seider: Massive explosion in development; Detroit’s next elite blueliner
Dylan Cozens: 2nd line potential
Philip Broberg: On track of becoming a quality defenseman for the Edmonton Oilers
Trevor Zegras: Exploded in the World Juniors; Selke potential for the Anaheim Ducks
Vasili Podkolzin: Elite sniper winger for the Vancouver Canucks
Victor Söderstrom: Overrated
Matthew Boldy: Potential right hand man for Marco Rossi/Kirill Kaprizov
Spencer Knight: Potential superstar goaltender for the Florida Panthers
Cam York: Top 4 potential, but faces obstacles, including a recently-upgraded blueline for the Philadelphia Flyers
I feel like you’re a bit to high on some of these guys, Of course that’s my opinion
@@slipperynodd578 I mean the best-case scenario for all of them
@@leafsfanforever2896 makes sense, then that makes Vancouvers pick even more interesting
söderström is a lot better than broberg
@@slipperynodd578 Yeah Podkolzin and Zegras in particular. That's an insane projection. He's never been a producer and isn't going to be anywhere close to an elite producer. If all goes well he's a top 6 two way energy winger. Zegras has never been touted as a Selke guy. If that was anyone from that NTDP it was Turcotte.
I would rather have Seider then Caufeild . Seider could be a franchise defensemen
It's a toss up for me, with Raymond there I think Seider would be more impactful in Detroit
I don't think he will be a franchise defenseman but I'm sure he will be an impactful defenseman. when I think of a franchise defenseman i think of Makar Bobby Orr and Nicklas Lidstrom
@@mlgcrashoverride1019 Nah these are Generationals dman, a step above my man. Heiskanen, Hedman, Carlson are what we can call franchise dmans.
@@fil12x Hedman is superior to Makar though.... Hedman is close to generational imo and I hate Tampa.
@@matthewminogue3276 Agree you could argue he is generational. Don’t remember the last time he made a mistake
Only justifiables are :
Jack Hughes & Trevor Zegras.
(and Perhaps Moritz Seider)
Period.
Great new edits grav!
Appreciated Julico! UA-cam's not pushing out the videos on the same week I put out some of my best stuff 😭
@@GravitehHockey ofc grav! Keep up the good work.
Great video, glad to see you leveling up this past year or so!
One of my favorite players the reason why I like the canadiens now
You have GOOD taste Nathan 👀
Absolutely love your videos man. Love the passion that you put into them.
Great vid! Love the jersey bro!! #GHG
In a redraft, imagine if the Avs got Zegras...
Great vid. He says Cole Caufield a 127 times in this video. Guess he likes Cole#22.GHG
It’s definitely possible that Boldy could be better than Caufield
It's possible for sure, but I'd see most of that value coming from Boldy's 2-way game if he's going to surpass CC imo
Yeah, Jack Hughes has blown him out of the water...
cozens looks pretty darn good now doesnt he
I am glad we took Cozens instead of Cole
Seeing this vid in november 2022, its kind of funny, now that Kirby Dach plays with Caufield. Hughes is still a beast even more. This video aged well
LETS GO NATHAN! Dropping professional videos on us left and right! You are talented enough to do this kinda thing professionally no joke! I can’t wait to commentate with you in the NHL someday… oh and about that Mario kart. I’ll be Luigi! Rainbow road, ready?
Thanks larry! I'm always ready for rainbow road 👀
He’s played 1/5 a season and the playoffs and bows supposed to be a guy drafted in the top 3? Oh brother
His NCAA productions has been top 5 pick level so far, and he was one of the best Canadiens forwards throughout the entire playoffs, against GREAT defenses like Vegas & Tampa
I know right?😂 let’s wait until he plays a full season and then let’s talk about how good/bad he is. We just overrating and overhyping the guy too much right now. This could be a really bad video in 2 years we never know
@@mathysgosselin259 personally I think it was a great pick and if next years a Calder candidate I’ll give it up, but this seriously premature.
He (Caufield) have already gone further in the playoffs than most of the rest ever will and he did great! Ofc future will tell but it looks oh so bright for him indeed. Anything can happen and it will be a ride to see what he will become, exciting player like that don't grow on trees if I put it that way.
This has to be the best intro I have ever seen!
Finally a sort of a 2019 redraft
Broberg and Bouchard are a beautiful combo 🤣
I've already said it during the draft, that he should have been selected first over all......and three years past away and l haven't changed my mind! One word to describe him :
'' spectacular '' just like Guy Lafleur was !
What!?!? No phrases today 😔😂 love the vids I feel caufield should’ve been top 10 but anyways love the vids! 👍
Kirby Dach has the potential to be great he just hasn't been healthy
@0:35 "If you can score goals, you can score goals". See Robitaille, Luc. 170 players were picked before him.
BINGO ✅
LETS GO KEEP THE GRIND
THE GRIND THE PAST FEW DAYS HAS BEEN REAL
Spencer Knight has an elite goalie name and I’m still happy about that pick. Makes the Bob contract less bad because if you think about it you’re only paying 10 million dollars for your goalie tandem
Caufield will undoubtably be the best pick of them all.
If I had a penny for the number of times he said Cole caufield then I would be rich
bro caufield on the oilers would be deadly
good video grav !
Thanks George, good to see you again! :)
My 2019 re draft
1. Hughes
2 .Dach
3. Zegras
4. Seider
5. Caufeild
I would rather have these 4 players then Caufeild. Caufeild great but I would rather have a potential franchise defensemen or center then a super good winger .
I get that but the only thing is.. you can’t call seider a franchise defensemen yet when he hasn’t played a minute in the NHL he’s great overseas but we haven’t seen him in North America I’m excited to see him play too but caufield has shown more than seider there for I would have caufield over seider for the moment until I can actually see seider play some NHL hockey. Dach and Hughes is understandable but zegras is neck and neck with caufield of course you always want to build a team around a center but caufield has shown more than zegras imo
@@jakobgougeon1769 Caufeild is not A franchise player either then . Seider already played in the AHL and he had a pretty good year.
@@jakobgougeon1769 He has already shown he can do it on American ice
@@jakobgougeon1769 plus the fact he said "potential" franchise and not just "franchise" do you see the difference ? 🤔 🤔
Amazing Video grav could you please do a Trevor Zegras Video?
Perhaps in the future! 👀
Zegras was the perfect pick for us tbh. I prefer him over Caufield because he's a skilled Center and I think goal scoring won't be too big of a problem when Pastujov, Perreault and McTavish join the team (while Comtois already is an NHLer).
good job !
Waiting for the why were 30 players drafted before Logan Mailloux video
Love the intro
I live in Detroit and the Plymouth team was shown on local cable. Started watching for jack Hughes but cole was really impressive so I'm not surprised at all. He seemed to be everywhere when he was on the ice
People really need to pump their breaks. Let’s wait till all the lottery picks in 2019 play a full season before we rate anyone properly. Anyways I’d still take Hughes, zegras, sieder, byram, knight and turcotte over him. Wingers will never be as valuable as C’s and D’s and even some goalies
i’d go hughes, zegras, sieder, then caufield. it doesn’t matter if turcotte is centre, caufield produced quality numbers both in the nhl and ncaa, as well as breaking records before he was drafted whereas turcotte has developed slower than L.A. would have hoped
I agree completely
Aren't you contradicting yourself here? First you say let's see everyone for a whole season first and the continue to say I would've taken bla bla before him, yet he is the one who already been in a final for crying out loud and scored quality goals in those playoffs.
Not contradicting myself at all. At first I say we need to pump our breaks and then I give my current take. Nothing is final and it isn’t in any order. Hughes and zegras weren’t give the same opportunity as him and yet their GAR is way better than his, not only that but Hughes has been anchoring his line since he was 18, zegras played one of The WORST SCORING teams of all time. Go look up how terrible their power play was and yet his GAR is higher and he scored at a better pace despite not having the talent around him. Not saying caufield is a bum or anything but if you put zegras or Hughes on the habs they maybe win another game
@@giovanniherrera6037 My point still stands only Caufield have scored in the playoffs still there are never any guarantees for anybody's future, you got to work for it. Looks good for him though.
This was a creative Video idea
Caufield becomes another example, like Alex Debrincat, of why you shouldn't fade players simply for their size. I think Eklund could prove to be a player we're talking about exceeding their draft pick in a few years too.
I'm a Blackhawks fan and it's hard to say I'd rather have Caufield but I still do really like Dach's potential and can't wait to see what he can do next year when healthy.
I think 4 or 5 in a redraft makes the most sense to me. Around the same range as Byram and Turcotte.
Constructive comment: your eyes are closed 80% of the time you're speaking
Great takes on Caufield! Love to hear you do a analysis of the LA Kings 2021-2022 season. They have so many players and prospects it’s hard to imagine who actually makes the opening season roster. They have newly signed AHL vet standouts that never got a NHL solid shot, prospects galore, new vet signings, and existing vets. Thoughts ?
What are you smoking ? No chance Caufield over Jack Hughes !
“I can’t believe 14 teams drafted good players when they could have had AHL sniper Cole Caufield”
How about now? ;)

Hi bud I'm so happy Montreal picked him I truly think he is going to crush this year that people that dont like the habs are going to be sick love it
Caufield being hyped up because of his play late in the season reminds me of how Ryan Poehling became the best player from his draft after his end of the year call up 2 years ago.
It’s soo different caufield showed he’s a consistent stud poehling had one good game.. caufield is regarded extremely good and hyped bc he’s played 30 games (playoffs included) and has been extremely good with the Habs 1 game vs 30 is very different
@@jakobgougeon1769 i have no doubt he’ll be a good player.I just think its too early to say he is a better choice than other picks
We will see about Boldy. He will most likely make the team this year.
Making way to big of a deal about Caufield
I think 7 of those 14 players are better than caufield
Hughes, Byram, Turcotte, Seider, Zegras, Podkolzin, Knight
Which ones would you list higher? The only ones that are in the same convo are Hughes, Kakko, Seider, Zegras, and maybe Knight
@@GravitehHockey Dach
@@GravitehHockey hughes, I see dach as a great player on a team with Kane, byram, seider, zegras, I really like podkolzin’s potential on Vancouver’s top6 and knight. I could also see boldy as a wildcard here, if he has a chance to play with kaprizov. Caufield is a great player nonetheless and I could see him like a better version of debrincat. I don’t think he’s ever Gonna win a rocket in a league with Matthews and michkov in 2023👀 I see him as a great consistent goal scorer

drinking game: take a shot each time he says cole caufield
15th pick at 5’8… Cole is my miracle man, and favorite, but 2 years ago during the draft…. No your opinion is annoying while you wear a Subban Jersey… you don’t warrant the following and thank you for the time to make this. Cole is still awesome
Montréal need Suzuki, Caufield, Turcotte, Kaliyev and Vilardi on their top 6. They should give their 2 first round 2022 choices to the Kings.
I completely disagree with you on your opinion on the Wild pick, Caufield is a goal scorer which is great but the Wild already have Kaprizov and Fiala, I’d rather have a more complete well rounded support player who can play in any situation like Matt Boldy than Cole Caufield. Let’s also not forget that Matt Boldy has also dominated everywhere he’s played from NCAA to WJC to the AHL, I fully expect Boldy to be a Calder trophy contender this year. This is all in my opinion as a Wild fan.
Boldy was so electric in the AHL, i’m happy with that pick for sure. See a long future for him
That's perfectly reasonable, for MINNESOTA it's a solid pick for sure
@Samuel Marchand the Wild already have one of those guys, Boldy brings more value to Kaprizov and the Wild’s current roster. It’s not all about who scores the most goals and points, it’s about who can help the Wild win at the end of the day, I believe that’s Matt Boldy.
I’m new to this channel and do you wear the jersey of the team we are talking about or you are a habs fan and no I don’t hate the habs
