GDT: 2020 NHL Entry Draft - Day 2

[Savant]

First they took aleksi saarela from us and now Zlon Nybeck.

They did not take Nybeck from us. You guys are weird.

 

[Matt Rentfree]

There goes Powell, damnit.

 

[Joey Bones]

f*** THEN POWELL GOES TO THE FLYERS!!

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

f*** the hurricanes

 

[AB13]

Yeah, forgot about Pashin. Lets get him now. Would like Stranges or Johanesson too.

 

[Machinehead]

If the Rangers were actually taking goalies every year to run them through the mill, I'd be totally behind that.

They take goalies every year and they're about to be on their second legit starter since 2005.

 

[LaffyTaffy]

welp

 

[Machinehead]

Canes got Nybeck.

Canes doing Canes things.

 

[NYR94]

Guerin's resting face looks like every dude's drunk driving mugshot.

 

[Machinehead]

Who actually got Powell?

It said the Flyers and now it says the Lightning.

[Matt Rentfree]

Who actually got Powell?

It said the Flyers and now it says the Lightning.

Tampa

 

[Mikos87]

Minnesota added three very complete centers yesterday and today, and pulled a great value trade today.

 

[Chytilmania]

I'd hate to be married to all the guys bitching about a 4th round goalie. Can only imagine what you bitch about in real life.

 

[Rangers in 7]

Honestly at this point in the draft who cares who they draft. Everything is just a shot in the dark

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Talbot?

He had a good 3 months.

Fine, 30 years then. Not much better .

I’m not calling them drafting gurus or anything, but over the span of the last 30 years, when taking into account all the years they didn’t even have picks in the 1st or 2nd rounds, and where they picked in the years they DID have day one picks, AND their literal horrendous history with bad luck/tragedy for those players (Cherepanov, Blackburn, Cherneski), and the team’s tendency to draft D in the first round (Sanguinetti, MDZ, Staal, McI, Miller, Lundkvist, etc), etc etc. All I’m saying is that, when taken in context, the Rangers drafting could be a LOT worse, historically.

Also, in those past drafts, we had rosters full of role players and no game breakers. Now, we have a MINIMUM of 4 game breakers (with several guys having the potential to join that group). A draft that produces a couple of Dubinsky/Callahan clones to supplement that group is something I’d sign up for right about now. Can you imagine the Black and Blueshirts, but with an elite top six (the Pack line relegated to 3rd line duty) and a drastically improved defense?

 

[Machinehead]

Canes get Nybeck and Lightning get Powell.

The pattern with the best drafting teams is clear.

Tell me about it

 

[Joey Bones]

Who actually got Powell?

It said the Flyers and now it says the Lightning.

It's the Lightning, it was a traded pick...

 

[NYRangers0723]

Our fans still whining

 

[Matt Rentfree]

I'd hate to be married to all the guys bitching about a 4th round goalie because I'm heterosexual.

 

[Anzi]

Feels like every year the Canes draft like 5 players that should have gone in the first 2 rounds according to public sentiment

 

[LeetchisGod]

Nybeck. To. The. Hurricanes...

I hate them...

They are such a well run organization.
