GDT: NHL Draft 2023

[PK Cronin]

Habs take Luke Middlestat that could end up being a steal. Defenseman with a lot of potential.

Also known as the better Mittelstadt.

10 picks away and Connor Levis is still on the Board. He must be a terrible person. Detroit just took his teammate. Why is he falling?

I had him going in the second or third round crazy

We have Daylan Kueffler, a teammate of his.

 

[SI90]

4 picks away. For the love of his give me Levis

We have Daylan Kueffler, a teammate of his.

Yup!! so we either know he’s a terrible person or we’re just not picking him up. Lol.

Perhaps a Covid season casualty? Sherbrooke Phoenix’s Justin Gill enjoying breakout season with eyes on NHL again

With the Covid impact I think overagers the past few years maybe shouldn't have the same stigma they usually have. Of course, then there are guys like Verhaeghe who break out at 25 and make overagers seem like not a big deal by comparison.

 

[SI90]

Caps jumping up for someone

We’re on the clock. Levis so much upside would be well worth it here

We went to Sweden and we took Wade Boggs

 

[Skip To My Lou]

Dennis Good Bogg???

 

[Taswell]

Oh, we got the GOOD Bogg

[JRD76]

they got a good bug?

 

[SI90]

We got an elite 3rd baseman in the 7th can’t be mad at that. Wade Boggs welcome.


And Levis goes right after. Ouch. Ouch. Ouch.

 

[The Wahligator]

At least it’s not Dennis Bad Bogg

 

[IslesNorway]

Did they draft him for his name?? What a name!

 

[xECK29x]

Another LHD, would have preferred Levis for sure

 

[SI90]

At least it’s not Dennis Bad Bogg

That’s a healthy perspective!!

Another LHD, would have preferred Levis for sure

I don’t know much about DGB but in the 7th round Levis was too good to pass up for me. I’m sad

 

[SI90]

I think Wade Boggs is an overager

 

[Chapin Landvogt]

Bruh. Dell'Elce is still on the board. Please Lou.

Kautonen has to get his Nordic fill...

I think Wade Boggs is an overager

He's an overager, yes.

Was part of SWE's gold medal winning U18 squad in 2022.

 

[SI90]

That’s cool. Poile last trade with NSH first captain Tom Fitzgerald and with Trotz. Isles connections there

Did he not play this year for the Sweden WJ team?

 

[SI90]

Nelson and Schulz are the ones to watch. Nurmi I’m not as familiar with but reading up he’s got some skills.

Not this year.

Only juniors for AIK. Did well there. Was their #1 blueliner, but one of the older players.

Got into 5 games with the pro team. That was Dvorsky's team.

Interesting

 

[Osakahaus]

B- for the draft. Decent picks, lets see how they all shake out

 

[xECK29x]

I'm happy with the value where we picked, no real crazy reaches for grinder/defensive forward types.

 

[SI90]

This is just insane talent and depth.
The flip side is your nhl team has to suck for a few years.

And it'll be a shame when only 4-5 end up being good

 

[SI90]

That’s a good number. But you have options for trades to improve your team as well. It’s building capital and assets
