If I knew we were expanding the draft, I wouldn't have taken Tampa
Make your pick already and select someone I want.
02 - Nolan Patrick (C)
44 - Filip Chytil (LW/C)

81 - Jack Studnicka (C)
106 - Maxime Fortier (C/RW)

I'd be happy with this draft.
Next GM has been PMed

The Devils were meant to pick between the Flyers 3 picks and the Flames. Let the Devils pick come in before we continue...
I messaged the Devils GM.

Nice one, Reb I hope we take a long look at him IRL too.
Hatcher won't be happy with the drafting of these small soft players.
Yeah in the 1st 4 rounds, I hope we pick no goalies and 1-2 Dmen. The goalie and D pipeline are nice....hopefully this draft fills up the forward group.
Then next year, do back to a more balanced type of drafting like 4 forwards, 2 D, 1 goalie.
I just wanted to emphasis building our center depth and wanted to mix in a risky pick (Zetterlund IMO).
I liked Chytil at 44 & Fortier at 106 the way it unfolded.
Chytil and Zetterlund would've both been among my top guys at picks 2 and 3 as well. Would certainly be content with that.
Chytil might slip into the late 1st so I was excited to nab him at 44.
He's unfortunately become a hot name now. I thought I'd have him as an option with my Isles pick at 46 pretty easily, but suddenly I'm seeing him going as quickly as late first in the most recent mocks.
