GDT: 2017 NHL Draft | Day 2 Begins | Part III

[PromisedLand]

And, we trade up to get Schenn at 5! Could have stayed where we were and drafted Karlsson, which likely would have happened with our current management!

precisely!

Timmy could turn into Karlsson lite

all the "risky plays" critique against him are the same that were against Karlsson as well.

 

[The Best Leafs Ever]

Yeah I agree young man, that girl you just hugged was a real beauty.

 

[SprDaVE]

Oh god not this crap.

Oh god what. Opinions and things can change but so far, not a great start.

 

[Stigma]

VesaLAINEn.......it was meant to be.

 

[Kurtz]

lmao why do people do this every draft

Yeah every draft folks either want to dump a bunch of picks to move up a bit or trade actual good NHLers for a pick.

Thankfully, our mgmt doesn't do this sort of impulsive stuff.

 

[93LEAFS]

Oh god, why did Vesalainen go to the Jets. Now the Fins and Jets fans are going to think I have a vendetta against them. Least favorite player who was likely to go in the first round.

 

[Cor]

Multiple Trades!

 

[WilliamNylander]

So glad we didn't trade our pick

 

[Canada4Gold]

lmao why do people do this every draft

Even when the best case scenario becomes a reality and we get Liljegren at #17, twenty minutes later it's MOAR PICKS AT ANY COST

Next year this time guys are going to be begging that we trade Liljegren for next years dropper at 20

I wouldn't mind flipping JVR for the right price. But there'd absolutely have to be a plus to at pick in this range

Haha good luck to you man, I'm not joining in on the main boards for a while. Especially due to we got a Swedish dman

It makes fine sense. jvr isn't a permanent member of this team, and our scouts will get someone great with the pick

 

[BlueBaron]

Anyone think Timmy got a call from Mats tonight?

Have to think that as a Swede we were one of his preferred locations.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Habs got a solid pick there. They no longer need a center now

 

[The Best Leafs Ever]

God I wish. Even for 31 straight up I'd do it

Lol what? I wouldn't trade him at all now unless it's prospects.

 

[RomanianLeafs]

good pick for montreal

 

[Unhealthy Scratch]

I like Tolvanen too but I'm not trading JVR for him, like

 

[Cor]

Dallas trades 29 + 3rd to CHI for 26

 

[Canada4Gold]

Multiple Trades!

Chicago is up next, are they going to trade back? And what are they gonna get for it? 29 and 39 maybe? Or 29 and 70?

 

[Walshy7]

Dallas trades 29 + 3rd to CHI for 26

Your gonna wanna hear this

 

[MapleLeafs9]

LMAO they traded the pick and they're doing this pre-pick video.

 

[The_Chosen_One]

Man I'm 5'9" and when the commentators talk about 5'9" people I don't even feel human haha.

The average height in Canada would be around 5'7 to 5'9. I'm approaching 6'3" and I highly doubt the norm is close to my height. Even a woman standing at 5'10" would ridiculously stand out in most parts of Canada.

Nevertheless, I love this pick. We've just turned D to a position of strength.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Wonder who Dallas likes

Bettman gives zero ***** about the fans

 

[Stigma]

I'm starting to like Bettman.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Those fans were so freaking out that they were trading out of the first round

 

[GoodNewfieBoy]

Chicago is a joke tonight
