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

[Joey Bones]

Eeli Tolvanen would be great too, despite the recent Boston College **** up

 

[Edge]

Don't know if this was posted or not, but I figured I'd put this here b/c of Gordie.

He seems really excited to draft in the first round. Maybe Gorton was right and he will run up to the podium when it's our turn

Key phrase - DO YOUR HOMEWORK.

Don't get too up or too down on a draft based on how others "define" it.

 

[Lion Hound]

Suzuki, Makar, Mittlestadt

 

[hi]

Rasmussen at 7 and Poehling at 21 would be the most RONGOS draft ever

Great quote!!

 

[ManUtdTobbe]

We need to pick Elias Pettersson if he's there... Cody Glass and Gabe Vilardi are good options too, and Liljegren... Anyone else, don't want at #7.

Please don't say that!!!!!!!

 

[FLYLine27*]

Ahhh I'm so excited for the draft tonight!!!

 

[Joey Bones]

I can also see the Rangers reaching for Kostin at #7

Can you guys tell I'm excited!! #PostForPost

 

[Edge]

I assume most of us still like Gordie Clark.

Well he now has two picks with which to work.

7 and 21.

First time in 7 years we have a top 10. First time in 13 we have two picks.

 

[mas0764]

I want

1) Patrick
2) Hischier
3) Vilardi
4) Pettersson
5) Glass
6) Mittelstadt
7) Suzuki

Would love to trade up.

 

[Joey Bones]

They're not trading up to select either Hischier or Patrick. The Devils and Flyers won't do that within the division.

 

[Ghost of jas]

I'll take Pettersson or Glass. Then I'll trade down from 21 for a lower 1st and a 2nd.

 

[ManUtdTobbe]

Couldn't have said it better myself!!

 

[Edge]

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Glass isn't very high on the Rangers list. Maybe even 3.

 

[Trxjw]

Glass or Petersson at #7. A sliding Tolvanen at #21. You heard it here first.

MAN I am so freaking amped, lol.

That would be a great haul.

 

[Ghost of jas]

Tobbe, I think there's a good chance now that the Rangers trade down from 21. Maybe, 21 for 23 and 35?

 

[Joey Bones]

Agreed!! That'll make the potential missed selection of Brannstrom a lot easier to swallow!!

 

[ManUtdTobbe]

Hawks apparently likes Brännström so #21 for #26 + picks? Sounds good to me

 

[ManUtdTobbe]

Tobbe, I think ther's a good chance now that the Rangers trade down from 21. Maybe, 21 for 23 and 35?

I think 2 spots is too steep for #35.

Would be pretty awesome.

Unfortunately I think ShowJaxx has it right.

I've seen crazier happen!! Like Panarin for instance

STOP THE MADNESS!!!!
