Toronto has picked 120th overall 1 time in their history, selecting Alexander Kuzminski in 1991.

[Apex Predator]

137 Lb? He’s small! Going to need to hit the gym.

I have no issue with small players but 137 seems very light.

 

[Gallagbi]

Stupid Dubas, always picking skinny undersized players

 

[Burnie97]

Wtf I weighed more than that in grade 8 lol.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

137 pounds? Wild

 

[TheFloater]

The ol' Thommie Bergman special.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

kinda hoped we would take Kiviharju

With the 120th overall in the fourth round of the 2024 draft, the Maple Leafs selected Victor Johansson.

Johansson is a left-shooting defender from Sweden, listed by Elite Prospects at 6'1" and 143lbs.


...does this kid have bones?

 

[Stand Witness]

Eliteprospects had him at 6’1 but not weighing much. I wonder if his size isn’t even close to right considering no one knew who he was

 

[JEI]

6'1 143lbs according to EliteProspects.

Not listed on any scouting sites rankings that I can see.

 

[Dion TheFluff]

listed at 6'1 / 143 lbs on eliteprospects so atleast he can fill out quite a bit

[KeziaTML]

We took this guy over Kiviharju? ....

 

[uncleben]

Another wildly off the board pick

This guy was totally unranked, by pretty much... everyone
Small and uninspiring stat line


Toronto's scouting team must have felt really strongly about this pick.

Bacon had Cowan ranked in the 100s, so this is a good sign.

I have a list of 995 players
Wasn't on my list...

 

[Byron Bitz]

Sportsnet’s draft coverage is terrible. They went to a long, shitty commercial when he was picked, when it finally f***in resumed they play catch up talking quickly about a few prospects picked before and after him and don’t say a single f***in word about Johansson.

 

[sxvnert]

Thank god, EP says hes 185 cm / 6'1", 65 kg / 143 lbs

He's gaining weight at a rapid pace at least up 6 lbs since being drafted

 

[Burnie97]

I'm not going to lose it over a 4th rounder but we never seem to take the obvious picks with Wes. Hopefully some of these unknowns pan out. I sure don't have a clue who this guy is.

 

[HockeyVirus]

You guys realize putting on weight is a very solvable problem right? He's 6 foot 1. Give him 5 years of eating and lifting and he is 185.

If he has the tools then why not

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

Andreas' younger, softer brother

 

[1specter]

Good Lord this kid needs to drink some protein shakes and down a ton of pasta
