What makes you think the Isles will be having the 1st overall pick.? They're awful. It will be one of them, Florida, Oilers, Sens and maybe even the nordiqu- I mean Coyotes. If they get the first pick I'd think they'd take a D. Mark Streit is not a franchise Dman.

You don't draft for positional need at the top of the NHL entry draft, I don't know why people always try and predict teams like Edmonton picking Dmen.

If a team is that bad off at one position, they will almost certainly trade down a get multiple assets. Teams don't benefit from passing on the BPA at the top of the draft.

If they get the first pick I'd think they'd take a D. Mark Streit is not a franchise Dman. I think the Isles will be pushing for a playoff spot this year. They have a solid group of young forwards. They're returning 5 20 goal scorers (Tavares, Moulson, Grabner, Parenteau and Comeau) plus Okposo for a full season, and Nielsen, Bailey, Rolston and Reasoner. And there's no way they can lose as many man games to injury as they did last year - it was well over 500, including Mark Streit for the entire season.

It won't be the Sens, they got some youth and a new coach going to be a good season I see them in the post-season!!!(Yes I'm a biased Sens fan can you blame me)

Ya, the greatest chance of any other team I can see the Isles making a slight chance at making a run, but I'm sorry hfxfan, the Sens aren't making the post season. They should trade Phillips, Spezza and Gonchar for future assets. When I look at the upcoming year tho, I see the Oil, Sens and Panthers and the Yotes being worse than the Isles. Who knows. I know teams won't draft for positional need but I've heard/seen good things from Murray. But a forward like Yakupov, Grigorenko would really benefit the Isles, or anyone else for that matter.

All the coaching in the world can't help a rebuilding team in what should be a pretty tough division.

But the coach is from Antigonish so he is extra special...and don't discount that fine ass moustache! You have to think he can get some wins just with the moustache alone!

Youre basing an argument on an 82 NHL season that hasnt even been played yet....why dont you let the teams play first before you start guessing at who each team will pick in a hypothetical scenario that hasnt even happened yet... Plus, you have ZERO clue as to who the Isles like....maybe their scouts hate Yakupov...who the hell knows... I get a kick out of fans who think they know who NHL teams like...

I think Phoenix will be the worst team this year
I don't think either of the Isles or Sens will make the playoffs
I also don't think either of them will finish dead last
but like Lala and others have said...... the season hasn't even started yet.. hell training camps haven't even started yet.... way too early to predict who might get drafted next June and by whom

Let's just enjoy this year and see what is going on.
If by X-mas Grigorenko isn't that productive, I hope Roy sells off Tam, Barnard, Domingue to fill the closet for 2012-2013.
When I went to see him in Chicoutimi, he didn't missed a pass the whole game. Even I would of schored the gimme pass he did to Comptois...
This kid is great, let's hope he turns out his ability into the real deal.
way too early to say.

Some people call it an opinion, I don't know what you call it though. Did I guarantee any of this or say mark my words? You'll notice I said, I see, and I can see this happen and, who knows, leading you to believe that this is all guesses. I'm not an Isles scout, but It doesn't take a genius to see Murray ranked top 3 by 3 different websites, and a couple of magazines here. Apparently you get a kick out of this so you're obviously an NHL expert, I look forward to watching you on TSN this year.

Im not an NHL expert....but im smart enough to know I dont have a clue which players the Isles scouts prefer...so why would I even start guessing at who they would pick???

Just depends where you are in the standings really. East is going to be a pretty tough division ...
