I mean Aram Minnetian is going to Boston College, why not pick him?

 

[Bowie22]

Marlol

 

[Hodge]

I think he could. He’s very very well-rounded.

BUT HES LITTLE SO OBVIOUSLY CAN ONLY BE TOP SIX OR BUST.

I hate this stereotype.

I agree it’s a stereotype but we all know what NHL coaches look for in those roles.

 

[YUPPY 2 7 10 11]

Next Sharks pick probably on a goalie.

Stephen Peck, ​

Juha Jatkola,​

Tomas Suchanek,​

Scott Ratzlaff.​

IAN BLOMQVIST​

 

[Juxtaposer]

Other than Minnetian, there’s one other defenseman on the board still that I’d be thrilled with.

 

[mogambomoroo]

If Sharks manages to get Cagnoni and Minnetian all is good.

 

[TheBeard]

Other than Minnetian, there’s one other defenseman on the board still that I’d be thrilled with.

Reinbacher

It seems like they are completely grooming Marleau for GM. I'd trust Thornton running this team far more than Marleau.

Marleau GM and Thornton the Head Coach of the Sharks

5’8” is really small. How many successful players that small have there been? If is a contact sport and it is a lot different playing junior that small than against men who have size and can skate.

It’s not like he’s drafting big guys with no skill. Grier is targeting size but also guys who are toolsy and just need to put their skills together.

 

[Gecklund]

Other than Minnetian, there’s one other defenseman on the board still that I’d be thrilled with.

I’d cry if we got Sotheran. I’d be real happy.

 

[hohosaregood]

Give me Matt mania

 

[Juxtaposer]

Give me Matt mania

This is my guy as well.

 

[OrrNumber4]

Svoboda and Haltunnen really undoing the good vibes from yesterday

Good vibes don't win cups...

 

[Juxtaposer]

Good vibes don't win cups...

I think by “good vibes”, hohos means “good players”, who notably do win Cups.

 

[Cas]

Noooo Ciernik

 

[mogambomoroo]

There is some good potentials left, come on MG!

 

[SJFanQC]

5’8” is really small. How many successful players that smell have there been? If is a contact sport and it is a lot different playing junior that small than against men who have size and can skate.

It’s not like he’s drafting big guys with no skill. Grier is targeting size but also guys who are toolsy and just need to put their skills together.

I don't really know how many successful players smell, but I'd wager a good amount considering the nature of the sport and the bags. Thank god for TV.

 

[mogambomoroo]

CAGNONI!!! HELL YEAH

 

[Alaskanice]

Luca!!

 

[Juxtaposer]

Oh, I like this one. Would have preferred Mania or Minnetian but Cagnoni is a legit pick.

 

[The Nemesis]

I think by “good vibes”, hohos means “good players”, who notably do win Cups.

No they don't. Winners and gamers and guys who play the game the right way win cups. Also guys who give 110% while playing one shift at a time and who understand that it's about playing for the name on the front of the sweater and not the one on the back. I don't see "good" in those qualifications anywhere

 

[LadyStanley]

Patty was interviewed on NHLN

 

[YUPPY 2 7 10 11]

CAGNONI!!! HELL YEAH

5'9 D man. Um is this GMMG pick?

 

[hohosaregood]

Ooh cagnoni

 

[mogambomoroo]

Oh, I like this one. Would have preferred Mania or Minnetian but Cagnoni is a legit pick.

I'm feeling they can still get both of them somehow, would love that.
