How will the top 5 play out?

When an Habs fan does a mock draft, you can bet Demidov will be available at 5 hahaha

As a Habs fan I prefer Lindstrom over Demidov we need to get bigger , the bigger the better go Habs go !

Good job Mr Cook! No BS.

Habs will get Demidov , Iginla or Lindstrom @ # 5 ....Decision will be made on priorities of the 3 close to draft day ...They will likely try to trade their second first up to get another forward by using a D ...Harris I would think ...

Montreal should take the 2 biggest players with their first round picks Silayev and Letourneau - both players are 6'7".

Habs need a big skilled centre or power forward. To win a cup size becomes important when you have to win 4 rounds. If one is there at 5 then take him. If not don't reach take the best player available.

The Ducks more than likely will pick a Defenseman but if Demidov isn't chosen by Chicago his skillset may be too much to pass on. Put him on the same line as Carlsson and Gauthier and there will be plenty of size to protect him and skill to take his passes or feed him passes that he can score on.

Iginla will end up the best player in the draft.

Don't talk about defenders. We have more than enough!!!!!

The Hawks are NOT going to let an impact player like Demidov pass, drafting at two you go for a home run, not a maybe. I do not get how so many people think that magic will blind every team but theirs and somehow the 2nd best player will fall right into their laps.

draft should be interesting

hope you are right!!

When has Chicago drafted a Russian this high? Answer never. Chicago drafts skill/speed #1 Character # 1A They just don't know enough about Demidov, so its possible the Habs get him, but there's three and four, and it might be hard for them to pass.
