Looking Ahead...2008 Draft Rankings
As we contemplate the week ahead for the Caps, we might take a moment to look a little further ahead. Although you've probably seen them in other venues already, below you will find Central Scouting's midterm rankings for 2008 draft eligibles:

ReplyDelete. . . would you draft 'best player' available or would you go for needs?
IMHO, our needs are at RW and Goalie . . .
I'm almost always of a mind of taking the best player available. Since that player isn't likely to be seeing any time for at least a year or two, it's hard to project needs that far in advance.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, we hope the best player available is a center. Once you get past Nicklas Backstrom, the prospect pool is thinner there than perhaps any position on the club.
I watched all the World Juniors this year, and the person who impressed me the most was Luke Schenn. I think that guy could step on the ice for the Caps tonight and be a very good defenseman.
