Someone on Twitter was saying that Bergevin caught wind that SJ was gonna just trade him to Boston. I'm sure that's just a reference to the Hoffman deal, but, would be funny if true that's why it died. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commandant Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Adding a couple of 2019 picks at the end of it all, and still making 11 picks is nice. Or I guess they added one 2019 pick and moved the 7th to the 5th round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had Ylonen at 38 so I don't think that was a reach. Mironov was and I'd say that Gorniak and Houde were as well but as later-round picks, I don't mind when they go off the board in general (though I don't like the Houde pick). The rest were either fallers or picked somewhere close to their rankings range. Disagree...when they took their first two 2nd round picks they had a whole bunch of guys sliding from the first round too. So, if you had him at 38 and 5-8 guys were sliding out of the first then there were over 10 guys ranked ahead of him (that's a lot for an early 2nd round pick). He might be great BUT it's a reach and bad value for the pick. The Romanov pick is just brutal as a reach. Then, trading down repeatedly was a mistake...they should have been packaging their 2nds to move up into the first round. I also simply have no faith in the org to develop players so the added late round picks are likely a waste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted June 23, 2018 Author Share Posted June 23, 2018 As is often the case, we're already seeing some development camp invites for undrafted players. Early invites are: LW Joel Teasdale (I'd have put a lot of money on this one) G Samuel Harvey Drummondville centre Nicolas Guay was also invited but it appears he's going to Detroit's camp instead.

Meller93 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Overall a meh draft in my opinion. I was fine with taking Kotkaniemi. I my wasn’t the greatest value pick, but it addresses a need, and I think it will turn out to be a good one in the end. I’m fine with Ylonen at 35, though not in love with it. Time will tell here. Really don’t like the Romanov reach though at all. Could have had him in the third round I feel. We could have drafted a centre like Akil Thomas I think, or d man McIssac. That would have been a solid first three picks. Liked picking up Olofsson, as well as Hillis, McShane and Fonstad. Houde looks like a wasted pick to me, and Harris looks like a project that I can’t assess. Same with Gorniak and Stanley. I just don’t feel like we hit the home run we needed in the early going. But I hope I’m wrong. I look at Detroit and the Islanders first 3 picks and I’m jealous. I really hope these prospects prove me wrong or we have a dark future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
