One thing I'm noticing is how Physically undersized a lot of the players are...hope they stay where they are couple, three years and put on the defined muscle and mature mentally and Emotionally which are just as important...lots of ups and downs as a professional Hockey at the NHL level

Such a Minny pick. They should've at least picked Ritchie.

Low upside. 3rd liner.

Stramel. This is a home run type of pick. Swinging for the fences. People think he was injured maybe but he was thought to have slipped on a lot of boards. Interesting pick

Minnesota is so set on "toughness" and grind it out hockey but that same style of play just cost them the 1st round

Whoa. Stramel was a bigger 1st round threat than most were willing to admit after his stock tumbled a bit this season. He's an NHLer but can he find that offensive upside he showed with the NTDP or is his upside bottom 6 only?

I do like Hrabal, but goalies are just so much more risky. If CBJ had their original 2nd 1st, I would've picked him there if I were them. But I think he's probably gonna be an early 2nd.
Agreed.. I think he'll be great but he's no Askarov, Walstedt or Wolf level as an 18 year old. But that size and athleticisim.. good gawd! He did get burnt at the U18 top shelf a lot which you'd think would never happen. Czech goalie school is doing well.. not the Russian elite factory but Czech goalies are doing quite well. Just no standout!

I still never really bought him in the first ten when push would come to shove
Well like I said, I thought he'd probably slip 5ish spots due to being a small winger. But now 11 picks lower than that and counting.

I wouldn't have picked him too close to 10, but he's 1 of the better players left at this point.
