I have your gold medal Zippy!
Ron Delorme I guess saw he was great in practice.I was really pumped on this pick when it was made. That fizzled quickly after his major D + 1 regression.

Has the advantage of being a non vet AHLer so might be able to stick around to provide depth in the developmental player category. If he can't make the Abby team, the Canucks may have to search for a spot for him since they longer are affiliated with Kalamazoo who now are in the Columbus organization. Don't think the Canucks have a ECHL affiliate.
die hard canucks fan here, and love the Podkolzin pick.
anyhow, after watching the highlights, there's a funny feeling deep in me that Keppen could end up being a better player than Podkolzin. (and Hoglander better than both Keppen and Podkolzin).
Please, no need to flame. I am just a fan stating an opinion. Hopefully we ended up with 3 really good players. We will see in a decade or so.

Not a bad pick, looking like one of the top 125 picks from this draft so theres that
I too liked him at the time, pretty sure was part of my status backwords even lolThink that was Palango's territory. Maybe that's why he was given the walking papers?
I think the only thing that saves this from a truly bad pick is that the guys drafted after him probably won't amount to anything. I liked the pick at the time. Another heavy boots guy who had some NHL potential if he could improve his skating. Then he somehow regressed after we drafted or he got moved down the lineup as his team got better.
