I would be fine to take Pitt as well, I've had zero picks so far. If there was anyone on a waiting list I'd suggest they should get them if they want.
With our first pick of the draft (finally) the New York Islanders select from the Spokane Chiefs... Jack Finley (C)
We decided to go with some NHL bloodlines with our first pick. Jack's father Jeff was an ex-Islander who played over 700 games in the NHL. Jack is one of the youngest players available in this year's draft, we also see a very projectable frame from this young man as he's already 6'5" and 207lbs. He has shown us a good two-way approach to the game, as he easily causes havoc in front of the opposing netminder but also provides a good stick presence on the back check. One of the more surprising parts of his repertoire is his skating, for being such a large man we were impressed by his edgework, he does need some improvement on his overall acceleration however.
NYI Draft:
82: Jack Finley (C) 6'5" 207lbs Spokane WHL
PMing @Hope Of Glory
Damn, and I thought he was already drafted, would've took him with one of my picks... kid sure is intriguing as hell ! (and I hope Timmins and co also are intrigued)
I like Kuznetsov around here. I'm always intrigued by the younger guys in their league and feel like he could have safe/steady #4 potential which is solid value at this point in the draft, albeit not being sexy. Good pick @Schooner Guy , that's quite the D overhaul you're doing for the Kings!
Edmonton is really happy to select, from the USNTDP, Brett Berard!
I'm working right now, can somebody PM the next guy please?
I'm good if you have it, you didn't have any picks right?I'm also down to take over a team I needed!
Didn't have any team, no. But I really don't want to intrude myself but I really injoyed the mock one!I'm good if you have it, you didn't have any picks right?
Go for it.Didn't have any team, no. But I really don't want to intrude myself but I really injoyed the mock one!
Sure , you can hop in if you want. I don't think @Tomas Tatahhh would have any issues with it.Didn't have any team, no. But I really don't want to intrude myself but I really injoyed the mock one!
Yep, you're good to go.If I'm not mistaken, it would be my turn with Pittsburg? Didn't get a PM with the change of management!
Vegas select from Everett, defenseman Ronan Seeley.
