Barf. Lakovic is the Charlie Stramel/Logan Brown of this draft IMO. Tantalizing tools but I doubt he has the toolbox to be able to properly utilize them.
Always appreciate yours & Pierre's thoughts on the draft & amateur hockey. You guys are seldom this far apart in your opinion of a player. I think it's kind of interesting. You see Logan Brown & Pierre sees Tage Thompson(?) .
So especially to kimzey, Hockey Pete, & seattle, & others as well, what say ye on Lakovic?
He's pretty high on my "do not draft" list right next to Blake Fiddler.
No physical game, questionable hockey sense, not even remotely sold on his compete level, "rough" defensively.
In the 2nd round, the tools might be worth the gamble.
But at 19 there will be MUCH better prospects available.

I don't see Tage Thompson but he's nowhere near Logan Brown. Lakovic is tremendously underrated in this class.
Fine. I’ll be nice and say he has Zach Sanford potential.
