GDT: 2022 Upper Deck NHL Draft: Bell Centre, Montreal, QC | ROUND ONE July 7th @ 7 pm ET | ESPN, ESPN+, SN, TVAS: PART 2

[HuGo Sham]

Well. we fleeced Chicago once for an underperforming 1st round C - so let's see

 

[Taluss]

I’ve got to applaud your fanbase, you guys are f***ing loud here at the draft. Absolutely love the passion

 

[ReHabs]

I personally don't put a lot of stock in men's league stats for 17 year old in his first year for projecting down the road. Caufield's first half stats under DD are an example why. The draft stock of a young kid in a high level men's league shouldn't be penalized at the mercy of playing vs experienced men for coaches who are paid to win rather than develop. I'm big on tools, what they do with their tools, development curve progress, compete, etc. It's also clear that Slaf developed a stronger defensive game over the course of the season.

Slaf's numbers aren't just curious but they're outliers. Let's see how it works out.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

The defense next year almost 100% guarantees us a top 3 pick

Arizona, Chicago and Montreal.

 

[Andrei79]

One of my favorite players of all time. Love Sakic.

 

[sampollock]

Kent get on the phones
Move Petry

 

[zx81]

Things have changed. We are applauding a Nordiques player :p

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

I feel like Serge deserved a bigger applause

Why? He recommended Bergevin.

 

[Mrb1p]

Bischel cause he is 6ft5.

Id be happy with him at 26 but not anymore with the Slaf pick.lmao

 

[HuGo Sham]

Arizona, Chicago and Montreal.

no one's catching chicago lol

 

[MD thaivuN]

The defense next year almost 100% guarantees us a top 3 pick

Our penalty kill without Romanov is going to be hot trash ROFL

 

[Max2]

Is it true that Wright death-stared the Habs table? I saw the death stare but unclear what he was looking at.

He saw a piece of moldy cheese he was interested in

 

[Mrb1p]

Man Burgundy Joe looks rough, he looks 75

 

[ForeverHabs97]

 

[Kairi Zaide]

Lian Bischel. Left dman. 6'5 / 225 lbs

Lets just punish the league with our big players

and not win any game because we're busy warming up the penalty box and getting manoeuvred around in the dzone

 

[Garo]

Is it true that Wright death-stared the Habs table? I saw the death stare but unclear what he was looking at.

If he showed that before the draft maybe things would have been different

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

So it seems like Dach's offensive potential is very questionable according to Hawks fans but he might be a good defensive 3rd line center...yippie...

He is a third line center. We lost Romanov a 22 year dman and even wasted the first pick we got from him for a 3rd line center with the wrist already injured.

 

[River Meadow]

Id be happy with him at 26 but not anymore with the Slaf pick.lmao

Who do you like at 26?

Remember they must be over 6ft2+ at least.

 

[Captain97]

I'm not sure if we made the right pick or trade so far but I am excited for next year. If Dach can figure it out we have 4 players in our top 6 next year 22 and under

 

[LaP]

Hope we get Lambert via #26 or trade up. Just go full boom or bust. F it.

If Lambert fall to 26th i'll be surprised.

 

[Whitesnake]

Jack Eichel = Alex Tuch, Peyton Krebs and Noah Ostlund.

Bravo Buffalo.

 

[Adam Michaels]

Man Burgundy Joe looks rough, he looks 75

Thing is, he looked 45 when they won the Cup several days ago. The celebrations did a number on him,

 

[Schooner Guy]

Our penalty kill without Romanov is going to be hot trash ROFL

There's a lot of offseason ahead. This management team's building for the long haul anyway.

 

[Max2]

Man Burgundy Joe looks rough, he looks 75

He needs to shave that dome.

 

[Redux91]

Think Kent is done

Done? We're picking at 26! Lol
