Pretty sure this guy was one of the minor characters from Game of Thrones.

Basile, from the House Sansonnens

The Mountain Who Skates.

 

[Burnaby Schmo]

I know nothing about the player, but I'd like to think Alvin knows something no one else does, and I am sure it has to do with the super late birthday. Maybe they're seeing a huge uptick in skill/size right before the draft and expect it to continue?

There is 2 minutes I will never have back.

I think Basil pairs really well with Tomato. Did we draft any of those?

It's unfortunate that Rathbone is no longer in the Canucks' system.

[David Bruce Banner]

Seems like a guy.

 

[F A N]

So he projects to be a defensive D. Decent skater for a 6'4" guy. Captain? of his U18 WJ team? Hard to complain at this point.

 

[Zippgunn]

Very young, very big, greener than Eire. I like.

 

[Bubbles]

He's going to be right up there with other Swiss Canuck legends Juraj Simek and Thomas Nussli.

 

[Nona Di Giuseppe]

Young with room to develop and an NHL body. Not sure what else you're looking for in the 7th.

That said, I'm surprised no one took Alex Zetterberg.
