Agreed.Well i gotta say im good with all 3 picks. Those 3 should start the season in windsor.
Got my D pick.Hoping for Hicks at 22 and Garden at 23
Or Cameron but think he’ll be gone
He was out of the top 80 on some rankings and inside the top 25 on others.is the lemieux pick considered far off the board?
There will be talent on the wing to help him growLemieux, is described as hard to play against. He put up some big numbers, 79 points in 45 games. Hard to argue with those numbers.
Hicks could be a legit target and fill a need.

"Carter Hicks, D, London Jr. Knights
One of my favourite defenders from this year’s draft class is Carter Hicks. Carter was the Captain of the London Jr. Knights who won the Alliance Hockey Championship. He is a 6’02 right handed defender who is a great skater, defends and puts up points. We know how valuable right-handed defenders are in hockey, and one that can skater and has size should be high on team’s draft boards. He is a smart defender who has a great shot and strong playmaking ability. He is not afraid to use his speed and skating abilities to break the puck out of his own end, or drive it to the net to generate scoring chances. He played lots of minutes in London, in many different situations, and I believe he has the potential to be special in the OHL."
Thanks for your insight always appreciated.Alright, got some time on my hands to explain the picks. Since I got some time.
Don’t think you need an Ethan Belchetz explanation. So I’ll skip him.
JC Lemieux
To be honest, I thought he was QMJHL eligible so I didn’t give him much though in regards to the OHL draft. I’d say he’s somewhat similar to Anthony Spellacy in that he has great skating, and can be a pain in the ass to play against. He has questionable decision making but you’re going to love how hard this kid plays, rarely takes a shift off.
Carter Hicks
Honestly, a kid I think a lot of us on this board wanted in this spot. One of my personal favourite kids in the class, personally. A fantastic leader and a kid that is very responsible in his own end. He is very mobile, able to move the puck very well and can definitely run the PP in the future. I won’t be surprised if he is a steal in the draft.
Greenwell will have a chat with him. Lol. Love this pick for a top D player.Only player scouting report I posted anywhere lol. Just made too much sense where he was ranked. And Knownothing brought up Hicks. Now ya gotta get the green n gold outta his blood lol.
Yes good selection so far.I have no complaints so far. I was expecting one of the picks to be that "well, this was unexpected but..." pick but so far so good. A hard-working, offensive kid who has a great work ethic, plus the D-man that's been hyped up? Keep going!
Any reason why Xu has dropped?Jacob Xu, Jet Kwajah, Cole Emmerton if available will be picked is my guess.
Belchetz' center was Headrick. He is only 5'7 though.
Any reason why Xu has dropped?
3rd round-no. Later round sure.I wonder if anyone tries to snag Nyman soon here, too?
Agree with this many picks a few chances are warranted.If he's still around mid-rounds (5-8), I'm not against Bowler giving it a shot.
