So Keith Aulie.

 

[ITM]

So that sixth round pick is in the Hail Mary to Europe mold, which I prefer incidentally.

I don't believe in the "let's outsmart an organization that's been adept at drafting defencemen" model of trade when they're willing to let a defenseman they drafted in the 4th go for a 6th.

Curious...but why wouldn't we use a 6th on DeAngelo instead?

 

[rumman]

So Keith Aulie.

Had high hopes for Keith…….

 

[GoonieFace]

If this 6th rounder results in us not being able to acquire McDavid, I will be livid

 

[Leaf Fans]

Probably could have signed him for free before too long, no?

No, his rights were owned by Carolina

 

[Rare Jewel]

Had high hopes for Keith…….

Yeah, he should've been like Edmundson or even McNabb.

 

[Mickey Marner]

I’d rather draft someone who will likely bust than trade for someone who is a bust.

 

[horner]

Because 6th rounders almost never make the NHL anyways, maybe Treliving knows a bit about this prospect ? I mean it's no risk really lol, it's a 6th round for a 6'7 D-man that blocks shots.

We need D prospects

 

[CincoHolio]

Look, if there's one area that the Leafs organization excels at is scouting and to a lesser extent, development. This smells of Tre giving marching orders to the scouting staff to identify project Big D worth taking a flyer on.

 

[Leaf Fans]

I hope he will sign with the Leafs. He is from just outside of Boston.

 

[4thline]

I swear I saw him mentioned on the mains as someone considering waiting out the Aug 15th deadline that teams were interested in.

becasue DeAngelo is a douche and nobody likes him.

edit. As a matter of fact, yes let's pick up DeAngelo and seat him right next to Reaves for the LOLz

 

[hamzarocks]

Shea's Son?

Really though he is another 4-6D for the marlies

 

[Menzinger]

BU is a good program - it's a D1 level

No doubt. He told the Canes that he wasn't signing.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

f*** it why not

 

[rumman]

Yeah, he should've been like Edmundson or even McNabb.

So much potential, another of my favourites was Jay Harrison, in junior he was a can’t miss player…….

 

[4thline]

No doubt. He told the Canes that he wasn't signing.

Hopefully spending a pick means we've done our due diligence and the signing is the in the bag at the end of his NCAA season

I hope so. Anyway they have negotiating rights till the 15th of August. He is essentially a Boston kid (from Westen) that might be a worry if the Bs come sniffing around.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Never heard of this guy to be honest. Guess somebody in our scouting department must have seen something they like. The fact the Canes let him go for a 6th is telling though. They're big on developing their own players.

 

[Jojalu]

At least the Leafs have a bunch of 5th round picks!

Me too I edited him in NHL 11 to have tonnes of potential and he would always end up a top pair

We'll see how this goes, Trev is really trying to toughen the team up, that's for sure.

He told them he wasn't going to sign with them
