It's my turn.. I have two picks in a row at 8th and 9th overall.
I am taking Nyquist at 8th
I was going to take Bjugstad at 9th, but another fellow is offering me his 11th overall and the 22nd overall. It's not a deep draft. I have 3 2nd round picks already.
I grilled him a bit and I think he's taking Bjugstad at 9, Forsberg at 10. That leaves me with options like Dumba, Toffoli, Murray.
Already gone: Grigorenko, Rielly, Galchenyuk, Coyle, Schultz, Yakupov, and Silfverberg.
Should i insist on the 10th overall instead? This would allow me to take Forsberg. Is Bjugstad that good? Part of me feels this is hype created because of an almost-Luongo trade.

Thanks!

I'm a big Dumba fan, I'd be looking at drafting him.

Thanks for the help! I like Dumba too... I just think there's a chance he falls a bit. There are a tonne of dmen I think I'll go after in the 2nd round.
Anyone else? I'm struggling here and the clock is running. Thanks!

i wouldnt do it.

Sounds like you already have a lot of picks that you will have to find room for on your roster.

When it comes to prospects i am a firm believer that quality overcomes quantity every time. Take Bjugstad. He is closer to the NHL than Forsberg and with his size and skill he should turn out nice.

Dumba should be there in the second round if you really want him.

I really wanted bjugstad in my farm draft this year but he went 4th overall one pick before mine and I had to settle for Forsberg. I am still disappointed in angus for that pick.

I would go with Dumba as well, he ha "franchise" potential.

If the other GMs in your league are worth their salt, Dumba won't be left on the board at 22.
