Selfishly hoping to see us take Charlie Stramel so I can watch him multiple times this year

That would be an awful pick.

 

[Anarchynate]

Crystall watch? Hopefully he’s there at 33

He might be the biggest disappointment of the draft, I don't see him going before mid 2nd.

was really hoping to see gibson dealt in return for a higher pick

I just don't think PV is up to the challenge.

hahahaha that's great

Welp lol. At least we won't have to worry about the Ducks taking him.

 

[tomd]

Thank God Stramel is gone!!!!! Taken way too high.

Beginning to think he just doesn’t act quickly enough for this stage. He seems to know what the right path is but does he have the quick trigger to get things done in a quick moving market?

12 points in 33 games and taken 21. Minny better have done their homework

Stramel at 21 is nuts, I'm not as low on him as some others on here but I wouldn't of went after him with anything earlier than a mid 2nd

 

[forever1922]

The Ducks are in no rush to trade up with the later 2nds. There's nobody available to step right in. There's no telling which prospect makes it and which doesn't from the 25-40 range.

Let it play out, there will be a great pick left at 33 and you don't lose maybe a top-3 prospect goalie to move up that you now get for basically free.

Figured that Bonk wasn't lasting too much longer. Smooth operator and teams always love bloodlines

 

[dracom]

seems weird to think he can be a franchise center when he's not even playing center...

Stramel is really good. Granato is just a really…..really bad coach and I say that as someone who watched Dallas Eakins coach

Stramel will blow up this year under Hastings

 

[tomd]

Bonk at 22. There will be a very good player available at 33 tomorrow. I hope Madden and PV don't f*** it up.

That's what they said about Turcotte. I'm not buying it. 4th liner at best.

SHL teams never play U-20 players at center. This is not surprising at all.

He is a center.

Do you think he will make it as a top-6 scorer? It's more like the Gaucher pick for the Ducks last year. But he's not even a lock to make the NHL unlike Gaucher was. He could have way more upside though, but he needs a lot of work to become anything.

edit. I realized this will make no sense unless I explain it: I mean Gaucher pick in the sense he seemed to have limited offensive upside despite having decent skating, size and C position to seem tempting to NHL scouts.

 

[Ducks]

He was fine playing 1C at the WC. He wasn't the greatest at getting back to the defensive zone quickly or back checking, but he played well positionally and never looked out of place.

It’s actually quite interesting you said that and I can understand the reasoning.

Granato was a good recruiter but sucked at teaching the game. Caufield is the exception to that. As a Badger fan, I actually didn’t think K’Andre Miller would amount to much either.

I do wonder if Hastings was hired 3 years ago and not now if some of these guys turned out differently (so far)

I do but I think he’s gotta be coached up properly. The good news for him is that he now has a coach that will.

I like Stramel, would have been happy with him at 33. His game won't ever be built around offense but there are ways to impact a lineup beyond just points.
