Anyone wanna try and predict who the Storm take for 2nd pick? Suzuki, Beruzzi, anyone else? ? Also i haven't seen any mock drafts for 2nd round so anyone know who people are picking to go pick first pick in the second round to Guelph?

I'm not sure about names, but I bet there is like a 95% chance it will be a defenceman.

McEwan, McFadden and Rhodes. If none of these guys turn pro or go on to University I would think the Storm would have one of the strongest overage groups in the league.

It will be a real solid group. Rhodes really transformed over the final part of the season into a good steady defenceman.

Just read this from Paul Osborne article.

" Kelly says the team is still in discussion with 2015 draft pick, defenceman David Farrance, who is finishing his second season with the USNTDP, and last year’s second-round pick, centre Cameron Hillis "

Any thoughts on if Farrance might come? He would be a solid add to the back end with McFadden gone after next year and Rhodes!!

I have a feeling he comes!!

I feel like it was mentioned earlier in the year that this was a possibility. So I guess that's a good thing hearing it more then once.

A STD told me the Storm parted ways with McEwan. Is that a fact?

:amazed:

Seriously though, to your question, he was at the Hometown Hockey celebration on Sunday representing the Storm and signing autographs etc.

It seems unlikely, but with this group, who knows.

Any chance we'll know who the new GM is before Saturday?

I think that the possibility of Farrance and Hillis reporting will hinge on who assumes the General Manager's responsibilities. I have heard in the past that the Cameron Hillis situation may be similar to Meireles in Kitchener. Family wanted another year before deciding appropriate path for him.

I would say that if they reported on top of this years draft class and signing of other previously drafted players there will be a different looking line up come September.

Pretty disappointing that Hughes is going the USNTDP route, does Guelph take the gamble and pick him anyway?

If they picked him it would not be a gamble. They would know he is willing to report......Highly unlikely!!!!
