GDT: Are You Ready to Rummmm...er, Draaaaaaft!

[Syckle78]

We are 2019s version of Arizona.

What does this mean?

 

[Hen Kolland]

Can someone tell me:

Would “Helm with hands” be a good comparable for Seider?

 

[RedMenace]

I have to wonder what the reaction would have been if Holland was still here and picked him

Well, there's already some "Fire Yzerman" posts, so there is that...

 

[Shaman464]

I'm not mad or happy..but shocked. Trust the process, I guess. #Yzerplan

ohh look....Holland just took a defenseman too in Broberg

I have to believe that Holland is the reason why Yzerman didn't trade back. So, he f***s his team from 2000 miles away. Big dick energy there.

 

[Larkin1578]

Well this entire weekend is now ruined. We picked a guy who projects as a #3 or #4 D at 6th overall....

I honestly can't believe it. I would of rather had a good 15 players. Cozens, Caufield, Zegras, Broberg, Krebs....anyone.

I had Seider going 15th...We're going to suck forever.

Holland/Oilers bandwagon is available, go follow them.

Hayton was a great pick

 

[SuperScript29]

I would have taken Broberg over Seider tbh. But whatever, I'll give Yzerman the benefit of doubt. Let's hope Yzerman can get a mid to late 1st rounder and get a decent forward.

 

[Hen Kolland]

What does this mean?

It means that we saw a player that we thought very highly of, despite prime draft position, and were not concerned that people said he was from off the board.

 

[Lampedampe]

Man it feels weird to not have Kenny announce our pick.

 

[RedMenace]

Super weird hearing Holland speak for another team... don't know how I feel about it.

Literally no one cares where you had him ranked.
Yzerman had a plan when he came in here. Give him a chance, if he fails then blast away. After all Yzerman's hockey IQ is a bit higher than yours.

 

[RedWingzz]

**** like this reminds me of the Larkin debacle on draft day. I can only assume you raged then that our number 1 centre was Helm with hands and only picked as Michigan boy?

No. I liked the Larkin pick on draft day, a lot actually.

This is ridiculous. At 6th overall you don'T pick the guy rated 18th. If that's who you like, you make a trade.

 

[Lampedampe]

Boldy coming up

 

[Roomba With a Bauer]

With Athanasiou, Mantha, Larkin, Bertuzzi, Zadina, and Veleno the Wings already have a very strong group of young scoring Fs.

I am not a super big fan of the pick, but you can't deny that Yzerman identified a need and moved to address it.

 

[Syckle78]

Oh yea I'm cool with that. Too much harping over drafting according to rankings.

 

[Lampedampe]

Boldy coming up

I should stop

 

[Ricelund]

 

[RedMenace]

I find it funny/refreshing that more teams are following the "f*** the pageantry, here's our pick" model.

 

[Killerjas]

Wondering who gets Kapanen

 

[WingsMJN2965]

We are 2019s version of Arizona.

For what it's worth, that pick is aging well for Chayka.

 

[SuperScript29]

Ohh look, Anaheim got a steal there.

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

I like Seider. Bow tie sold me

 

[Lion Man]

Except making the comparison literally implies that the poster thinks it could be.

He is hoping he has the same career as another 1st round pick that happened to be a DMan. I dont see what the issue is

Haven't had a quality bow tie per/60 since happy hudler.
