This is definitely Captain Obvious stuff here, but I can't help but think one of these things happens on Friday going most hopeful to least:
1. The Kings trade AK and the 21st to drop a few spots and pick up some extra picks in the 2nd/3rd round.
2. The Kings trade AK and the 21st to move up a few spots and get a guy they really REALLY like.
3. The Kings trade AK and the 21st to another team for a ~28-31 year old player to fill out an open spot at either LD or wing.That 3rd one is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down the list of what I'd want..but it seem like something they'd do.
In order of likeliness, I'm ranking them as 1, 3, 2.
I think it's a major longshot they move up.

Agreed. Short of some guy who dropped that they're VERY VERY high on...and he's 2-3 spots ahead of them, I can't see it really happening. I think it was Yanetti that said they'd really like to pick up a couple of more picks right? Only one way for them to do that...

Or they stay at #21 and trade AK for an extra pick (e.g., 3rd rounder).

If draft will go following Mckenzie's final draft ranking for 2024 Kings will have only these 3 good options available to them:
Hage/Boisvert/Emery

I've soured a bit on Emery lately. If Solberg is gone, i'd go Boisvert, Hage.....and Emery (if that's the 3 options considered).

Option 1 is the best one here. Otherwise stick and try to move AK separately.

If the Kings miss out on Solberg I’d love them to trade down and get extra picks and try and snag Gabriel Eliasson in the later rounds.

Top 16? Most have a top 17/18 who are your top 16 if I may ask?
Connelly would be the best realistic even semi realistic pick we can make barring one of the top 12 drop (not happening).
I’ve just heard there is a drop after 16. I know the names of the first rounders. I’ve heard it is actually a good defense draft. Just haven’t bothered to go beyond that in my knowledge this year. Hope they can get a deference maker. Seems more likely they come away with another mid nhl player to me. Hope I’m wrong.

Thinking Rob might trade the 4th rounder so he can head home early and catch some waves Saturday morning. Just set it to autodraft and grab a backup QB and a kicker with the last two picks.

At we going to do a predictions thread? Where we list who we think is taken at each pick those are always fun to revisit.
