Did that Finnish guy Eetu T. get taken yet? (forgot his last name lol)

Thou hast forseen our pick

 

[BigRangy]

yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

 

[DFF]

The Flames have been reading this board...the pick just to make you guys happy

 

[Mitts]

!!! Just drafted Eetu Tuulola!!

Wanted him in like the 3rd or 4th round.



hnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg

Lmao.

 

[Volica]

I like that pick.
Big Finn. Biiiigg Finn.

 

[JPeeper]

Will be better than Puljujarvi.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Reminds me of Glencross

Reminds me of Glencross

How? This guy cant skate. Glencross was one of the fastest skaters?

 

[Volica]

Eetu speaks fairly good English. It seems like Finns are the hit or miss with the English at this age.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

He's good. He had a bad year but coming in he was pretty highly touted. Showed his skill at the u18s though. Finnish players are usually underrated IMO.

 

[MonyontheMoney]

Yes!! Phillips!

 

[Flaming Satan]

Excellent, Phillips is the player I wanted last round.

 

[BigRangy]

ayyyyyyyyyy Phillips

 

[Volica]

Munchkin!

 

[AgeOfBennett]

Stoked about the Phillips pick!!!!!

 

[TheHudlinator]

I've wanted Phillips for a long time. Such a fun player to watch I guess I need to go to more royals games.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Lmao, we took Tuulola!

I love this pick! Oh man, I love our draft so far.

 

[JPeeper]

Phillips makes Gaudreau look like Bjugstad

 

[Calculon]

Pretty interesting draft so far

I'm liking the emphasis Flames are putting on absolute skill. Skill kills man, you can surround'em with meat down the line, but you need the guys who can produce.

 

[Jephman]

Oilers fan here coming to tell you you guys are killing it!

 

[Anglesmith]

We have Juan Moore pick.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Why have we not taken Sokolov yet? If we can get him in the 7th, I lose control of my body.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

It's safe to say Todd Button is in control of the draft. Credit to Brian Burke and Jim Treliving for knowing their role. And realizing the game is going in a skilled direction.

 

[Volica]

We have Juan Moore pick.

Juan Moore?
Prospect out of Mexico?
