GDT: 2015 NHL Entry Draft [Flames pick Anderson @ 53, Kylington @ 60, 136, 166, 196]

[Calculon]

Not that stats really matter in junior but he doesn't have a very good statline to say the least.

Stats to paint a picture though. Bad pick, even if it's a seventh rounder.

 

[Taranis]

Surprised we didn't take a goalie who is NCAA or European bound for longer progression.

 

[Calculon]

 

[Johnny GODreau]

Or that headcase Nathan Noel

 

[Calculon]

Draft is over for Calgary. Low on quantity, high on quality.

Really good two days.

 

[Taranis]

Well our D seems set, which is what I wanted coming in so I am pretty pleased.

 

[MC Ride]

What does this even mean? Are they building academy's to grow talent like they do in soccer?

 

[herashak]

good draft to keep some depth in the system while adding a good young NHL Dman

 

[InfinityIggy]

Both Pilon and Noel undrafted. Very interesting.

The Isles took Pilon didnt' they?

 

[Unkki]

I'd also have picked some goalile like Vehviläinen or Georgiev instead of this big ass *******.

5th round to NYI

Didn't watch the first round yesterday, but was disappointed when I caught on a ticker that Boston had snagged Zboril with the first of three consecutive 1st-round picks, when it occurred to me that these included the Flames pick at #15. There was no news on what trade had been completed, and I finally broke down and asked a guy late last night if he'd heard what happened and needless to say, was way more thrilled we'd landed Dougie than anyone else we could have picked at #15. The addition of Andersson and Shylington basically icing on the cake.

Suffice to say, our past three drafts have shaped this team's foreseeable future in the absolute best way possible. The only thing left to figure out is what to do about our goalie situation, but even that looks quite promising long-term with Ortio, Gillies and McDonald.

 

[Taranis]

With regards to Dubnyk.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Nathan Noel going undrafted is quite surprising.

 

[DFF]

it's a 7th rounder and he is 6'6 and late birthdate.


Lots of room to grow there

Nathan Noel going undrafted is quite surprising.

Really surprised. Did he have attitude problems or something? I don't get why no team would even waste a 7th on him.

No idea, all of his linemates were drafted. Maybe did really poorly in the interviews? Injury or illness?

 

[Calculon]

 

[herashak]

we can start worrying about drafting forwards again. the defensive side has been stocked full.

 

[chunkylover53]

Riley Bruce seems like a throwaway pick. At least it was in the 7th. So who are the best players eligible to be signed as FA?

 

[Anglesmith]

Canucks took a Russian in the 4th, haha stupid Canucks

dammit, another Russian

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Close enough to the end.
