[Hossa]

I must say, considering this draft's general lack of talent and depth, I'm not too concerned that I didn't have any picks until the third round and only one before the fifth round. But, it was quite lame to not be a player.

Third Round- 70th overall - Mike Ratchuk (42nd to Philadelphia)

Fifth Round - 130th overall - Brian Gibbons (undrafted)

Sixth Round - 160th overall - David McIntyre (138th to Dallas)

Seventh Round - 191st overall - Jeff Zatkoff (74th overall to LA)


So Ratchuk and Zatkoff were good picks, and McIntyre could become something too. Gibbons is a little guy going to BC, so I'm not going to count him out just yet.

Thanks for putting in the work to get this finished up, Matt!

Great work guys --

For the Flames - on the second day they had only two picks - the 188 & the 192.

188 - Julian Walker - Julian was second on my list for this pick - and I thought there was no way that he wouldn't be on somebody else's list. Walker is a Swiss overager who was passed over in the previous two drafts. At this years WJC he was a dominant player, he can skate, is very physical, has good skills and has a heavy shot. He has NHL size at 6'2" and 209lbs. He was drafted by Minnisota this seaon - at 162nd overall, 26 spots ahead of where the HFNHL Flames took him.

192 - James Reimer - James was at the top of the Flames list. This was a player that I really wanted but thought that because of his CSB ranking (NA#19) he would slip, and he did. ISS said that Reimer was one of their wild cards - a player who could surprise. I saw him play in the WHL this season with Red Deer and was impressed. Apparantely so where the Toronto Maple Leafs - they took him at the top of the fourth round at the 99 spot, 95 spots ahead of where the HFNHL FLAMES got him. Hopefully Reimer will turn out to be the next Justin Pogge.

Thanks for all that work, Matt - I know from first-hand experience what a it is!
