[Michelangelo]

There are not interested in the Q this year. Who the F is Protz? lolll

Always BPA

[Gustave]

They have to be kidding me

 

[sansabri]

is he a right shot

 

[Habs 4 Life]

Oufff the media will go nuts lol

 

[OneSharpMarble]

Like... we were trying to explain this to posters for damn near 2 months now..
But people literally thought we were taking Buium at 5
I'll never understand it lol

We. Needed. FORWARDS.

Do you understand that trades and free agents exist in this world? Are you Bob Gainey?

 

[vokiel]

Owen Protz.. no idea... Really the whatever picks.

 

[MadMslm]

This is a head scratcher for me

Understandable with higher round picks. But what's the point of picking 10 forwards in one draft? With late round picks, I'd take a chance on defenseman. If they do pan out, a 3rd pair D is typically worth more than a 4th line F as an asset.

 

[TheYardMachine]

Good 1st round but the rest has been pretty bad so far

 

[MD thaivuN]

Also the son of Satan himself

Miro, that is

we ain't winning the cup if HuGo can't sell their souls to Satan

 

[chaosrevolver]

Of course we pick another garbage rando. Thank god our 1st was good because these 3 picks ain't it.

Can we not call these kids garbage…especially when you haven’t seen them play.

 

[The Real Timo]

I take it no blockbuster trades by Kenny today?

 

[Seb]

We have the whiniest fans it's ridiculous.

 

[CapSpace]

'When Protz steps on the ice, he holds a monopoly on violence – smart violence. He steadily angles attackers to the outside, lining them for a bone-crushing hit. He eliminates the attacker’s options on the cycle, then slams them to the ice.'

From eliteprospects.

I like that very much, thanks.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Owen Protz (LD), he is one nasty mother-f***er.

Plays for Brantford Bulldogs.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Why is everyone 6'1 ?

Seems like a physical guy, so I'll take it

 

[Gustave]

Roy slipped to 5th so they are trying to see if it works once again

 

[red devil]

is he a right shot

No

 

[Natey]

Love this pick. Protz was in my Top-60. He's f***ing mean and I love it.

 

[ryan callahan]

Can we not call these kids garbage…especially when you haven’t seen them play.

Well I did see Boilard and Poirier play multiple times and there is no excuse to draft a 6'1 defenseman with 0 offense above them.

 

[le_sean]

What a terrible pick. Hope this posts looks stupid soon, but come on man.

 

[sansabri]

more LD huh

 

[Whitesnake]

So here's The D Connor Crisp...lol

 

[Treal]

Think they are just drafting by cool sounding names at this point just like I do in the later rounds of GM mode
