Hey here's more highlight reel clips of Cale Makar embarrassing some AJHL 15 year olds who will never play in a higher league. He looks great!

 

[jello44]

Makar is fun to say

I'm reminded of that South Park episode with
Starvin' Marvin and the Marklar aliens.

 

[Cake Boss]

Is this the guy that plays in the weird unknown league?

 

[zroid]

Forgot that the Avs picked Jost. Interesting that they picked Junior A players in consecutive years.

 

[Curufinwe]

Lebrun thinks the Eaves deal is worth 3.1 mil a season.

Good thing they could dump Stoner and Despres.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Benning on the phone!

You think he's ordering pizza or Chinese take-out?

 

[Fata1moose]

If I was an Avs fan I would be a bit nervous of this pick

Why would I be nervous? Where the fuck are going to go down further? Not possible.

 

[PillarEN]

Makar is a Zelda character. What a weeb

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Benning on the phone!

Getting directions to the stage

Is this the guy that plays in the weird unknown league?

I guess you can call the Alberta Junior Hockey League weird and unknown, sure.

 

[Nikolai11]

C'mon Benning, take Glass

 

[Smiley90]

3->5
2->5

fuck the draft lottery

 

[Yawnier]

Why would I be nervous? Where the fuck are going to go down further? Not possible.

Lol touche

 

[Fata1moose]

His name is Cale for fuck sake.

Cale backwards spells Bust.

Boulder will love him.😂

 

[Cake Boss]

I'm rooting for you Canucks fans, anyone but Mittelstadt would be good

The giant 6'6 guy who got majority of his points on PP?

 

[Socreges]

Benning 😔

 

[ColdPizza]

Come on Sabres, trade down

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Uh alright then Canucks.

 

[Icolin]

WOAH.

 

[Smiley90]

DIM JIM STRIKES AGAIN

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

What

 

[Red_Man]

Glass
Mittelstadt
Vilardi

I'd prefer Vilardi but Dim will probably get Mittelstadt

Lol

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Benning WHAT

 

[calder]

That kid is draft MVP. Love the dgaf attitude and desire for the spotlight.

 

[Samyy]

The giant 6'6 guy who got majority of his points on PP?

Okay anyone but him too haha

Actually...this is a bit early

 

[RC]

Who the fuck is this guy?!

 

[Yawnier]

This dude is lankier than Slender Man

 

[bonesmccoy]

Who?

 

[Cake Boss]

Great pick, really liked him in juniors.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Is he a cross country runner?

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Has chemistry with Dahlen apparently.

 

[Red_Man]

The kid wearing a jersey is almost as big as this guy

 

[Smiley90]

Okay anyone but him too haha

Love this pick for the nucks, great pick.

not sure if sarcastic but elaborate

 

[RC]

Looks like the kind of kid you stuff in a locker.

 

[Samyy]

not sure if sarcastic but elaborate

Gonna walk this back a bit, theres probably better players available but he's a legit great prospect.
I think Glass/Vilardi are better

 

[Icolin]

 

[Fata1moose]

Looks like the kind of kid you stuff in a locker.

Holy shit this got me.

 

[Socreges]

So weird. Some mock drafts had the Canucks taking Petterson but I didn't think he was on their radar

The fact that Dahlen probably influenced this decision is horrible

 

[DopeyFish]

If Bennington were smart he would have taken lias Anderson but petterson is good too... A few spots too high but it's all good

 

[lamaroo]

"He's a real good kid"

Congrats Nucks

 

[Fata1moose]

We're playing the long con for Dahlin.

"He's a real good kid"

Congrats Nucks

You guys are killing me.

 

[RC]

Has all the makings of a future bust. Nice job Benning.

 

[Cake Boss]

"He's a real good kid"

Congrats Nucks

I hate drafting bad kids like Ceci 😒

 

[Red_Man]

@TheAJHL Makar is only 84th player in NHL history drafted directly from the AJHL. Highest ever before tonight: Joe Colborne (16th overall in 2008).

🤔🤔🤔

 

[zroid]

the nerds I follow on twitter seem to like the Pettersson pick

 

[Curufinwe]

Hockey Prospect had him 5th and Future Considerations had him 8th.

[Socreges]

Vilardi for Vegas

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

He's 6'2". Could fill out.

 

[HadesGigas]

6'2", 164 lbs. is uhh... something. Imagine if he isn't able to bulk up.

 

[ShinRPGamer]

So Glass is going to Vegas then. Interesting pick
