MTL currently hold the #8 and #9 pick
If MTL aren’t winning the lottery and aren’t dropping, which players would you target with the #8 & #9 pick ?
Bedard Fantilli Michkov Carlsson Yager Smith are all drafted before our selections. That leaves :

- Dalibor Dvorsky (C)
- Eduard Sale (RW)
- Zach Benson (F)
- Andrew Cristall (LW)
- Matthew Wood (F)
- Lukas Dragicevic (RHD)
- Mikhail Gulyayev (LHD)

IMO one of Dvorsky or Benson is getting draft before #8

Personally, I would pick whoever drop between Dvorsky or Benson at 8, and I really don’t know who at #9. Thoughts ?

Seems like Benson is the obvious choice here. Yegor is expected to go in the mid teens so he probably won't be selected.

Yager ? Seen him in everyone top 10

I think Yager will be available at 7/8
So I'd pick him.
Probably trade down from 9, to pick sandin pellkika

Not high on Sandin Pellkika
I would take the two best forward available
