[Hale The Villain]

I don't like this.

This isn't a smart defenseman. Fast and skilled, but the hockey IQ isn't there.

 

[Six Assets]

Who?

 

[Sun God Nika]

 

[Deku]

Yikes

 

[Beville]

What, who? Why?

There must have been better D...

 

[Johnny Hanson]

I’ll trust the scouts but I really don’t like it. I watched a lot of Kelowna games and korczak easily stood out as the better defenceman.

 

[TkachukNorris79]

He would have been there at 32. Easily could have traded down for him.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I think they could have traded down and got him several picks later.
They drafted a position of need. I think he was the best RD on the board

Yeah exactly. Bpa? Hmmmm

 

[Masked]

Seems like a similar pick to JBD last year.

 

[SENATOR]

Kaliyev will be a stud as Kopitar against Brian Lee.

 

[KevinRedkey]

Could have picked the guy at 32

Wanted Kaliyev. Would have traded up for Krebs.

Not happy with this nonsense

 

[Wallet Inspector]

Can't help but feel like the scouts really wanted a RD, but after Harley was drafted they just went with the next best thing.

 

[GrantLemons]

Not really crazy about reaching at #19, but we'll see I guess.

Kind of weird he wants leave Kelowna and play in Finland next year.

 

[Alf Silfversson]

I really like this guy but I think there could have been a trade down. Or even been available at 32.

I think he'll be good though.

 

[Peptic Balcers]

My thoughts exactly

 

[Icelevel]

I don’t know enough about him to say this but........, I don’t like it. (.....yet)

 

[stempniaksen]

He was a riser and I'm damn sure be wasn't dropping to 32.

Based on who was left on the board I have no issue with it. Would have been as pissed as the rest of you had we picked him over Newhook/Krebs, but there was no one close to that level left on the board, ino.

 

[BUCKLE UP]

This guy was in my top 10. Pierre’s a smart man.

 

[Cosmix]

Thanks for the info.

We shall see how smart the Senators Scouts and Dorion are in the future compared to the rating services you have provided.

It seems they reached far down the list of available players.

Heinola was consistently ranked higher but RD was more of a need. I think it was a factor. I don't think he was straight up BPA but that's just my opinion. How 'bout the dumbass Boberg at 8

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

That worries me, as well. Especially since Kelowna will be in the Memorial Cup next year. Seems strange that anyone who is a competitive athlete would walk away form that opportunity.

 

[bert]

Par for the course with these clowns.
