Awful pick imo. Why pick a thug when you can get top 6 talent in Teuvo?

Holy Christ Wilson is big.

You know the Habs did something right when the Galch thread on HFBoards is almost 100% positive.

Also:

"I just got drafted by the Montreal Canadiens, there's no vacations anymore." Alex Galchenyuk on his summer plans

Fucking love this kid.

He's a notorious gym rat, did high school completely online so he could focus on exercising and hockey full time. I knew Timmins would grab him if available, he's the exact character Timmins loves.

Hah, love some of the Grigorenko quotes:

On falling to 12: "Eleven teams didn't draft me so too bad for them. I'm No. 1 pick for Buffalo Sabres."

On KHL: "Buffalo Sabres is my team and I can't wait to go on the ice to wear this jersey and be a part of this."

Alright, enough of a Friday night spent on the draft...

Someone better draft Subban soon. I'm tired as shit and have to get up super early. But I won't call it a night until Subban goes.

He needs to use this as fuel to prove the haters wrong. I hope he does.
 
Timmins had Teuvo second, it was confirmed by Stephane Leroux on RDS (probably the only guy who knows his shit on this channel). If Yakupov wasn't picked by Edmonton, Galchenyuk would have been to Columbus, and... we'd have picked Teuvo on third.

It's a major steal by Chicago. Habs even tried to get a trade going on by trading their two second round picks to get another first round pick to get him.
