Fuuuuuuuuuuck Calgary is gonna take Liljegren too

Might as well trade down if that happens

 

[ShinRPGamer]

So this guy will be a bust. Going 15th overall is usually when busts get drafted.

 

[DopeyFish]

Just have to hope Calgary doesn't take liljegren now

Or else it is valimaki time or jokiharu

 

[Cactus]

There goes Karlsson Jr.

Leafs get either Valimaki or Liljigren if they want a D

 

[Marvie_3]

What the fuck is that thing?

[wandering goat]

Valimaki and Liljegren available for the Leafs. Don't mess this up!

 

[Merguson]

This is the part where a trade happens.

 

[Reckheim]

What the fuck is that thing?

An empty shell of a man.

 

[Samyy]

I could have swore Marner was 5'9 5'10.

Nope he's 5'11 just skinny as fuck

 

[Fata1moose]

I remember being at an Ava game years ago and they were interviewing one of the peewee kids.

Interviewer: Whose your favorite player on the Avalanche?
Kid: Peter Forsberg.
*crowd cheering*
Interviewer: Who is your second favorite player?
Kid: Adam Foote
Interviewer: Who else is he to you?
Kid: My dad.

Not sure if that was Cal, but it was hilarious.

You fucking stay away from Jokiharju.

 

[Curufinwe]

McPhee said there were talks about moving up to 5 but they figured out they didn't need to.

 

[wandering goat]

Nope he's 5'11 just skinny as fuck

5' 11.5" at the combine, he's 6 feet or more now.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Bergevin and Rutherford are talking

 

[Samyy]

5' 11.5" at the combine, he's 6 feet or more now.

Right so a full 4-5 inches on a Yamamoto

 

[Yawnier]

Liljegren is still on the board

 

[Cactus]

PLZ TIMOTHY PLZ PLZ

 

[DopeyFish]

Holy shit we might get liljegren

 

[zroid]

laffs going off the board

 

[shadowkat]

What the fuck is that thing?

LMAO

 

[yyzjohn]

Burke had this guy ranked #1

 

[Merguson]

Liljegren is still on the board

Time to see if Thommie Bergman pushed hard for him.

 

[calder]

Great pick by the Flames, I wanted Valimaki at 13 a lot.

 

[Cactus]

laffs going off the board

NO ZROID NO

TIMOTHY PLZ

 

[Fata1moose]

HE PLAYS THE RIGHT WAY.

 

[calder]

Valimaki at this point is a hell of a lot safer than Lilljegren and may have a higher upside too.

 

[ElephantShell]

Ready for some random Russian overager.

 

[calder]

I genuinely appreciate how Lou looks faintly annoyed by every single thing he does.

 

[Yawnier]

YESSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[zroid]

ah they did it

 

[wandering goat]

Yes! I was thinking some time after the last draft how nice it would be to get Liljegren in this one, but didn't expect it to happen. Quite happy with how this turned out. ^_^

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Congrats LeafsGAF

 

[bonesmccoy]

Who is this lad

 

[ElephantShell]

Timoth!!

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Expected from the Leafs after Valimaki was taken.

 

[DopeyFish]

Valimaki at this point is a hell of a lot safer than Lilljegren and may have a higher upside too.

He was screwed this season with mono

 

[Reckheim]

nice! ... i can't believe he fell so far. Good shit.

 

[Cactus]

YES

 

[yyzjohn]

What a steal Leafs got the next Erik Karlsson!!!!

 

[Merguson]

Good thing we cycled through every worse scenario to prepare for any disappointment.

 

[Cake Boss]

Everyone is the next Erik Karlsson 😁

 

[Yawnier]

Willy is gonna have a Swedish buddy ))))

 

[zroid]

Can we talk about how pointless it was for Lou to step up to the mic to say Hunter would announce the pick

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Both Toronto teams got steals in NBA and NHL drafts


Good Job

👍👍👍

OJ > Timothy

 

[calder]

At 17, well worth taking a bit of gamble on upside. Pretty rare to get a guy who even maybe could be a first pair guy in the second half of the first round.

 

[gaming_noob]

Wow Leafs get someone that was projected to be 2nd overall just a year ago.

 

[Yawnier]

Dude forget Karlsson.


This kid is the next Borje Salming

Spoiler

Sorry I had to

Or how about... It's rare to get a guy who was projected to go first in the middle

We lucked out that way with Nylander... If this guy lives up to his pedigree... Look out.
