Ha. My oldest son will be draft age in 4 years.

 

[Verviticus]

Frank Corrado didn't look like much when we drafted him. I'll reserve my judgements.

Simply my favorite sleeper during the year. I think he is very good value at this spot.

Interesting pick. Like it better than most of the other ones today.

amongst other positive reactions

 

[Free Edler]

nice and now he get drafted by the Canucks.....wonder if he a fan of Naslund or just choosen to be there.....

His dad playing for the team at the time probably had a bit to do with it.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

In looking up video of Cole Cassels, I've discovered a side to his game that his father certainly never had.





Doesn't seem to do it too often, but didn't fare too badly in either one. Did Andrew ever scrap even once?

 

[PerDos]

Brief interview with Andrew and Cole. Hope Canucks will find Cole his own Sanderson.

I'll never forget that one game where Cassels had a crazy start to the game and one of the Sportsnet guys brought up the 5 goals for a million dollars thing they always run.

 

[vanuck]

Pretty cool.

Nice picture. Really don't know too much about him, hope he shows well.

 

[arsmaster*]

He looks so much like his dad it isn't even funny.

So what you're saying is, we drafted Clone Cassels?

The Organizations long term blackmarket investments are coming to light..


Who next?

 

[EpochLink]

The Bertuzzi/Cassels/Naslund line...then Cassels gets shifted to the second line in favour of Morrison.

I was in grade 11 when that happened, I'm getting old LMAO

Who next?

I learned recently that people are paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to a South Korean company to have their pets cloned. How long will it be before your comment can be made entirely seriously?

Awesome! Thank you and definitely no rush!

Done! But video quality seems poorer than usual. Ahhh well...

U rock dude.

Kid has some nice hands for a power forward. He is damn big also

 

[timw33]

Really like what I see. Seems like he has a pretty good shot, and shows good patience and puck protection—he's a lot bigger than I expected.

 

[member 202355]

Hopefully he is at least as good as his dad!

 

[Bad News Benning]

Reminds me of Joe Pavelski with his shot and the way he moves around the ice.

You rock feebster. And apparently so does Cole Cassels A lot of jam to his game, I like it.

 

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

I wonder if he wears 19 in honor of Naslund after seeing that photo. But yeah there's some intriguing big-guy-with-skill plays in there.

Really like what I see. Seems like he has a pretty good shot, and shows good patience and puck protection—he's a lot bigger than I expected.

His shot actually looks pretty awful to my eyes, and his skating is average.

But yeah, he shows an ability to slow the game down and make plays in limited space. Strong on the puck.

Given his rep as a strong defensive player, it seems like a reasonable pick.
