GDT: 2022 NHL Entry Draft - Round 1 - July 7th - 7 P.M / Round 2-7 - July 8th - 11 A.M

Nothing but praise from Sportsnet. I like the player.

 

[Auto Pilot]

What a stupid f***ing pick

 

[Guttersniped]

If we go D it has to be Jiricek. Please not Nemec.

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Real dumb. So dumb. Not the worst thing ever, but not picking BPA in an NHL draft is so freaking stupid.

This kinda reeks of "we need to make up for missing Makar".

 

[Saugus]

At least that Kasper shit wasn't real, but come on.

 

[Azathoth]

Not mad but I could be happier.

 

[SKNJD9]

well, that is horrendous asset management. You either take Wright or you trade. And no, I don't believe a team wouldn't place a premium on the top C.

If we targeted Nemec he wasn't slipping past 4.. if AZ didnt wanna trade up it is what it is

 

[SJinNewJersey]

With Wright there, we should have taken him. The team did need RD, Fitz didn't do his homework, could have traded down somehow.

 

[VoidCreature]

Passing on Wright is very bold. Preferred Nemec over Jiricek so I'm not too upset.

 

[Eggtimer]

Pejorative Slured pick. Just shit .
They better get Gaudreau or this team can f*** right off

 

[Bleedred]

I did want Patrick over Hischier, but I don't remember feeling this bleh when we went with Hischier instead.

 

[RememberTheName]

Me: I sweat to God if we take Cutter Gauthier.

Tom Fitzgerald: Hold my beer.

Galaxy-brained

More like NO-Brained.

Jesus f'n Christ.

This ruined my whole night.

 

[Lou Bloom]

I've been saying for months now that Wright was heavily overrated and not a #1 lock. Nemec is a blue chip defenseman that outproduced what Brandt Clarke did in the same league with better overall tools. Potential top pairing two way RHD are not easy to find.

 

[BananaGenetics]

Lets goo, I wanted Nemec. Sets our defense for a long time

 

[Saugus]

So this was a need pick according to Fitz: "we liked him as a right shot defenseman who can move pucks"

 

[DerekDevils30]

Looks like we lost a lot of fans based on the reactions in here. See you guys in September LOL

 

[OmNomNom]

@StevenToddIves opinion?

 

[nugg]

Jirecek is better. Dumb!

 

[Andre Palot]

Why not just trade down? Why make the pick at 2

 

[Nocashstyle]

I don’t like how Fitz is making it seem like it was a positional choice

 

[Lou is God]

I am just as disappointed in this as I would have been with Makar

Let's see where it goes

Solid point.

 

[Traitor Zach]

Nemec will be ready fairly quick.

Good chance both Hughes and Nemec are on team starting in 2024.

 

[TheSituation]

Absolutely f*** this team's scouting department. Not even the best f***ing defenseman in the draft for Christs sake. What a stupid f***ing pick.

lol, so why isn't your dumbass a part of the department if you're so smart.

I honestly don't think you believe in our FW talent.

 

[Lou is God]

Why not just trade down?

I don't know if he would have made it past Seattle.
