GDT: 2017 NHL Draft: The waiting is over! The NYR will pick in the first round! Part II

[SA16]

Reeves can't actually play though.

So the Pens get dirtier. The Flyers and Devils add the two best players in the draft. The Jackets get last years Calder winner. The Rangers get... cap space. What a day.

Honestly, if today signals the end of the current window and the start of a legitimate rebuild, I understand and am on board. Cup chances for this core died with those pinball goals by Ottawa.

 

[Machinehead]

Meh Ryan Reeves is a decent player.

Not worth a first.

 

[duhmetreE]

Why the **** did Gorton pass on Eeli?!?!?

He shoots the puck.... that's a big no-no

 

[Joey Bones]

Blues grab Kostin!! That's gonna bite some people in the ass.

So Kostin for Reaves

 

[Filip Chytil]

Kostin to STL

 

[LeetchisGod]

Keith Tkachuk is a buffet molester.

 

[Alluckks]

Damn. Blues killed it today.

 

[rvdnsx]

Kostin and Tarasenko?

Well Gorton said they want to "rebuild on the fly" but I don't really know how that works. I guess we'll see.

As much as we see legitimate elite talent win Cup after Cup, NHL GM's still prefer "compete level" at the draft.

 

[Avery16]

Wow. Reaves and a 2nd netted St Louis a prospect and a 1st. What can we get for the negotiating rights to Glass??

 

[DutchShamrock]

Machinehead, are you impressed with the kostin - neideriter comparison? We can change the world onenpick at a time.

 

[silverfish]

Blues just turned Ryan Reaves into the top ranked Euro skater in the draft.

Not bad.

 

[sbjnyc]

Was Kostin the first guy without a nameplate?

 

[offdacrossbar]

blues had a nice night

moved up and grabbed the big russian

this was all about tarasenko

good pick

 

[NYR]

You've replied to 3 of my like hour old posts as I've continued to ignore you.

What are we 3?
I've only responded to your posts when they were addressing mine but I won't bother anymore if it bothers you sunshine..

 

[THE BIG WHISTLE]

Lets be honest. Our real super star forward is somewhere in the third round.

 

[GregSirico]

He puts the puck in the net. We don't need those guys.

I'm very impressed

Top ranked Euro skater should have been gone long ago but NHL GM's gonna NHL GM.

Good first round. Not amazing, but still very good. After doing research and my own thinking, I'm comfortable with how the Rangers did.

Zib is better than Brass.

Completely agree. Could've done better, but not bad.

Except for Las Vegas and St Louis.

Still pissed Vegas took Glass.

Vilardi falling like a rock didn't help our cause.
