They should, and CBC should have a camera on Don Cherry when it happens so we can see his Scanners-like head explosion.

Hopefully for Leaf fans but I don’t think he’s getting past the Habs

Well TSN just did a mock draft and Grigorenko just went 17th overall

Should the Leafs take him 5th?
Absolutely

No, this market will eat him alive if it’s perceived that he takes games off. Galchenyuk is the guy. Hopefully he’s still there at the fifth pick or Burke finds a way to trade up and get him.

I was at 3 of the games between the Moose and Remparts and watched the other 4. And no I wouldn’t touch Grigorenko in the top 5 or Frk in the top 25.

A kid 2 years younger than than both is and was obviously on a completely different level than these two. If Grigorenko is a top talent in this draft, then Nathan McKinnon is a franchise changing talent and next years 1st overall pick.
