For those who may be wondering what this guy is like. This is from the Finnish Elite league, not NHL calibre, but the guy has some skill ... 

 

Mathews or Laine depending on who Toronto picks of course, no other player need apply  ...?

And Columbus is like we don't even care, we're good either either way.

I think Columbus picks Tkachuk...  Pullujarvi drops to Edmonton

 

Cbj would take brown or Jost or PLD over Tkachuk.  They need a center.

They need everything... I could see Logan Brown there too.

Tkachuk-Jenner-Saad would be a nice line.

Isnt Columbus' General Manager Finnish?  They wont let the "other" Finn drop to #4.

Columbus needs a center badly. Him being Finnish is irrelevant.  They passed on rantanen and took Werenski last year. Lots of examples of the cbj gm passing on Finnish players 

If CBJ does not take Poolparty, I'll be shocked. He's a top prospect centre they need.  If they decide Puljarvvvvyyy is not the best pick, they'll trade down, I imagine.

He's a winger.

D'uh, you're right. Not sure why he was in my head as a centre. I can even envision him taking face-offs.

I could definitely see CBJ trading down then, to grab Brown.

If JP isnt their guy, then for sure they might as well trade.

Trade with who?  Picks 3-6 seem to be very much the same talent level/upside

4-6?

They want brown or Keller. 

Dreger said that the CBJ GM scouted him big time and that it's almost a given that they will take him and possibly move him to center.

Dreger is also dead wrong 99 percent of the time so there's that.

So Dreger made up the fact that Columbus has a GM from Finland with a tonne of contacts and scouts who have watched JP play?   

 

Darren Dreger is (almost) always wrong.....?? Really??  Eklund, I get, but Dreger's a really connected guy.....

He got the Moose scoop.

When Dreger and Bob Mac speak, listen. Same with lawless. They are connected. Not always 100% but there is always a little fire to their smoke. 

Dreger is wrong lots. LeBrun and Bob Mac are way more reliable 

Eklund is a blogger. Dude has as much credibility as any one of us on here. Dreger like Friedman has been doing lots recently speculates quite hard. Bob and LeBrun do not.

I'm going to assume that the person who posted it got Dreger confused with Millard.... But even then.... 

Nope. It's Dreger. Millard is just a talking head. Dreger has some connections mainly when his brother in law Dave Nonis has a job but he is wrong lots. 

If LeBrun or Bob Mac says it... it's true. Dreger? It might be but it might not be.

So by tomorrow it will be... Well, I never really 'said' Dreger was wrong all the time...

Its like the ghost of Mattew Tkachuk sucks...!!

Totally false ,  and I'm almost unsure if you are purposely trolling because to suggest that he isn't is absurd. 

But to bite on your trolling... can you please post any more reliable sources that suggest that the CBJ would be going with a non Finn?   Your opinion also doesn't count as a greater source then Dreger.
