6'5" and can skate...it's weird he fell to the 6th round. Was the worry that what points he did have were just because he was a man among boys (and that a 6'5"/200lb should be putting up more than 0.66 p/g)?

It sounds like he just flew under the radar. Maybe it’s because his usage was 3rd line and he was not on them PP? Either way it’s pretty cool he fell to us given how strong his draft +1 season is going.

CHL stats are garbage but I bet there were some clear signs that he might be pretty decent somewhere if they tracked those esoteric fancystats like "Time on Ice" :laugh:

Sending up the bat signal to chat about what is happening in Subury and the break out season that Kieran Walton is having.

My feeling is that Stan's D year stats were poor enough to suggest 3rd or 4th rd pick. Wally's were good enough to suggest 2nd or 3rd rd pick.

But even if we had taken both in a 3rd rd I would like Walton more than I like Stanley. If Stanley had been taken with a 3rd rd pick, would he even still be here? Would he be have been given so much rope?

Actually, I think he might still be here. But he might have been kept in the AHL longer which might have lead to waivers. If waived, some GM would have taken a flyer on a 6'7 Dman. Or he would have been exposed in the Seattle expansion draft. In either of those scenarios he would have been gone.

Stan is a one off unicorn.
