That 34th pick has now gone TOR -> LAK -> CBJ -> TOR.

 

[zroid]

moved down 10 spots and got 2 extra picks in the 60s. I'll take it.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Here's some reassurance:

I'll Trust in Timmins

So those picks have good corsis?

Poor #34 having a train run on it, with the same engineer and caboose

 

[Yawnier]

Just realized we got our second round pick back from the Bernier trade (#34)

 

[Coldnoodle]

Jeff O'Neill is panicking.

 

[zroid]

So those picks have good corsis?

Leafs trade 24th (value of 308) for picks 29 and 61 (value of 450). Very smart move.

Value according to this http://myslu.stlawu.edu/~msch/sports/Schuckers_NHL_Draft.pdf …

[edit] I thought that was talking about both moves, it's just the 24th.

According to this graph:

Yes.

 

[MetatronM]

Uhhhhhhh...NBC?

 

[Samyy]

Look at future GM Dubas there wheeling and dealing :')

 

[Marvie_3]

NBC seriously cut away from the draft for fucking track meets?

 

[Delryk]

Look at future GM Dubas there wheeling and dealing :')

Hes having fun me thinks

Palmieri to Devils

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Palmieri to Devils

That's a Shocker

 

[aidan]

Very happy with Boeser. Would love to see Vancouver pick up a couple of early-mid seconds tomorrow—Roy, Merkley, Bracco, Pilon, Sprong, or even Harkins would be nice additions. Lot of talent left.

 

[Samyy]

1 of Roy/Merkley/Kylington/Dunn/Sprong/Harkins will be available at 34 so I am okay with this

Yeah that's what I was talking about earlier. Since they didn't feel strongly about anyone they're maximizing value based on probability of success.

 

[dem]

The guys available in the second are shocking.


Good thing we sent 33 for griffin motherfucking reinhart

Gah

 

[Smiley90]

According to this graph:

Yes.

:lol did you get that off Dopey's twitter?

Some really good players from 31 to the low 50s left, after 50 there is a bit of a drop though

"Well, Bob, IT'S FUCKING OVER."

Fucking ridiculous.

Dopey uses those letter/number fridge magnets for his charts.

Seems that way, though it's kind of a change from their talk of going for a "home run" pick here. Having more chances to pick is nice though to try to kick start a rebuild without starting with a lot of prospects.

Well, that was a fun first round to watch, lots of trades and some crazy off-the-board picks and players slipping, didn't see the mini-orgasms I expected from Pierre, but still good fun.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

Palmieri to Devils

Yup, Palmieri gets to play close to where he grew up.

Ducks get 41st pick.

 

[DopeyFish]

Stop hating

Anyways... here's an article on bracco

http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/prospect-of-interest-jeremy-bracco/

With 168 career points, Bracco is third all-time in USNTDP scoring, behind only Kane (172) and Phil Kessel (180).

Pretty fucking good company if you ask me

 

[bonesmccoy]

Marner is a waif.

Can his nickname be tobracco?

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Look at this Stud


Wow he is handsome


And he's Canadian

 

[Samyy]

waif?

 

[Socreges]

Boeser...

Good pick?

 

[Foggy]

Gabriel Carlsson who?!

Why did Winnipeg steal good Columbus kid Roslovic?!

Fuck it allllllllll

 

[MetatronM]

Another successful draft day for the New York Rangers. Kudos all around. Great work, team!

 

[Samyy]

:lol Jeff O'Neil sounds like he's going to cry

 

[Red_Man]

Because I missed it earlier re : Hamilton trade

Watching Boston crumble is amazing, what a fucking fleece. Amazing, literally made my draft day.

 

[bonesmccoy]

waif?

Built like one. Saw a pic of him talking to Hayes and Naylor.

I was driving home when Boston was picking - what's the story there?

 

[Marvie_3]

I might be biased a bit but their hated rivals, the Chicago Blackhawks, had a slightly better draft today.

You managed to get Antoine Vermette out of the 30th pick, so I agree.

 

[aidan]

Boeser...

Good pick?

Great pick.

From The Hockey Writers:

Born in Minnesota, Boeser verbally committed to Wisconsin originally, before retracting it and signing a letter of intent with North Dakota. He’s not a scrawny 6’1″ – he’s a muscular 6’1″. Sturdy on his skates, Boeser has outstanding balance and skating legs. In the offensive zone he’s a menace on the scoresheet. It’s as if he’s one step ahead of the defenders – both mentally and skill wise. He will wait for his shot before unleashing a devastating wrister. If he can’t find an open lane to shoot, Boeser isn’t afraid to drive the net for a scoring chance.

If you plan on trying to take the puck away from him I wish you the best of luck. He keeps the puck in close, and with his wider frame, knocking him over isn’t the easiest of tasks. Boeser can play a solid two-way game and has great puck pursuit, but he’s looked more for his scoring touch than his defensive play. Boeser has one of the strongest lower bodies for his size, and while he can skate well, his acceleration might need some work. Not that he isn’t a talented prospect already, but when he gets that extra boost in breakaway speed, he could potentially be deadly.

 

[Holiday]

The Blues had the best draft day, because they finally made it out of the first round at something.

 

[User 479360]

I have faith that the Leafs know what they're doing, and that trading down was wise. Maybe we'll luck out for once and get one of those later pick gems.

They Drafted Poor Mans Versions of Beaulieu and Gallagher. Hum.

Boston is full on Rebuilding I guess

Bruh
:lol

Plays with Scherbak too, Bergevin said they saw a lot of him from watching Scherbak this season. Seems like a safe pick, sounded like there were some good risk forward picks available though. Trust in Timmins.

:'D

I was at work all day, it was killing me. Next year I definitely need to take draft day off. I need to hear Sanjuro's bullshit spin on this.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Flyers had a damn good first day of drafting .
