Premptive death knell summary;
When it comes to listening to the Recklaws and/or preparing for this draft I think I AM gonna not.
I did think Jarventie and Niederback might be decent sleeper picks that would see 1st line minutes but it was a wild guess. I had no idea who to draft on defense at the picks I took. Schnieder was a team Canada pick. Kokkonen and Knazko were shots in the dark. Although I do like Knazko I wasnt sure he was going to get more than 5 points.
Actually all things considered Byfield and Caulfield turned out to be sort of ok at that draft position. Somewhat passable although both are playing down the lineup they have been getting chances and playing well. I sort of liked Soderblom and Neiderbach on the PP too but they couldnt double up much....I was hoping Raymond-Holtz would be lighting it up on that unit.
Sadly....I would have taken Byfield at 3rd overall....Dach, Zegras, Byfield would have been my rank. And there is no logic to why i skip Cozens. Just being bold.
