GDT: 2022 NHL Draft Rounds 2-7

[ACC1224]

Pro scouts, no. Those would be the ones making picks today.

Internet scouting services, sure.

Right there is that distinction although they are all paid for their opinions on prospects.

 

[JSn0w93]

Isaiah George, or Jordan Gustafson or Jordan Dumais would be decent picks here.

 

[notbias]

is Grudinin worth the risk? See a lot of rankings around a late first...

 

[RomanianLeafs]

hey at least we have the pleasure of watching kerfoot and holl for another season and lose them for nothing next season...

 

[TheBigFour]

please pick dumais with the next pick.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

trade down trade down

 

[Fonzieleaf]

Our pick now

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Come on Dumais

 

[Isaac Nootin]

Right there is that distinction although they are all paid for their opinions on prospects.

The person who surveyed pro scouts (McKenzie) had him as a 2nd rounder.

 

[ACC1224]

this! i get why people are upset but some of the takes on either side are hectic lmao

they always are

 

[GrizzGreen]

Likely, I've seen him as high as 47 I think, it's a gamble.

Don't follow prospects that aren't in our system enough, so no opinion. Just can't seem to please the "we need size and physicality, we always draft small players" crown.

Totally, just a numbers game

Realistically I feel that someone had to have been taking him earlier

ex. the clip of Burke drafting Kadri where he's talking to Ottawa? and tells them "he's our guy, and we're going to take him with this pick"

 

[Fonzieleaf]

He's trading down. Dubas not at the table presently

 

[AcerComputer]

hey at least we have the pleasure of watching kerfoot and holl for another season and lose them for nothing next season...

Easier to make trades for those guys after we see what happens in FA.

 

[NarcoPolo]

If he can turn out to be a Anthony Cirelli type player you can’t get mad at the pick. If we miss on this and one of the handful of players we missed out on in exchange for dumping a shitty contract turns out to be a stud, Not a good look for dubas.

 

[uncleben]

He's trading down. Dubas not at the table presently

that's what i'm wondering

 

[TimeZone]

Everyone makes mistakes...if you are working either in retail, corporate job or w/e. However, Google doesn't educate nor teach us a lot of the factors a person who is extensively in the field. I used to be with a lot of players/scouts/ex etc...and everyone always has something new to learn and teach even those who have been there for decades lol.

There are plenty of people in the field who question this players upside.

One could certainly make the argument that selecting a player with bottom six upside in round 2 could also be something to learn from.

Or perhaps flipping assets for two bad contracts given up a mere 12 months ago, that could be another learning lesson.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

YAY TRADING DOWN MEAN MORE PICKS!

 

[rocketman588]

We're trading this one dubas not even at the table

 

[ACC1224]

The person who surveyed pro scouts (McKenzie) had him as a 2nd rounder.

I don't really follow this stuff. Wouldn't other services discuss the players with pro scouts as well?

 

[Smif]

Our 3rd for goalie rights, maybe?

Leafs trade 79th pick to Vegas for 95th and 135th picks.

true and who know its fun to see what happens and the varied reactions for sure because we really won't know what will happen until a couple of years

 

[stickty111]

Yup trade down. This is what I was predicting in the 3rd round

 

[TimeZone]

clearly the scouting team doesnt think he has low upside

Based on what? They very well could have chosen the safe road here over a boom/bust type.
