Hey Chico - thanks for posting your picks. Very interesting that the only pick you had in common was Aguanno. It will be interesting to see how your picks fare over the next year or two.
As for myself, I'm pretty happy with our first four picks - those are really the ones I see ever wearing the jersey. The twins - interesting strategy (almost Hunter-esque).....if they grow. I'm quite tired of seeing undersized players getting pushed off the play despite their pestilence. I found the 5-9 line entertaining to watch this past year, but at the end of the game, largely ineffective . Having said that, I don't see Sicoly or Ralph back next year, or Stevens for that matter, unless he turns on that bulldog approach that MK purported when he was first drafted. I can't see Hotchkiss cracking the lineup either, but I felt that way last year too.
Looking forward to seeing another Bertuzzi in the fold, as well as Primeau - Woolley and Aguanno I hope will show good. Anything beyond that is gravy IMO. As for current players nudged out - that's another post - although I've played some cards here.....
Aguanno played up last year and I liked him very much then I would say he is 50% Finn and 50% Leslie.
Like Aguanno, Bertuzzi played in the OHL Cup last year and did very well. It seemed this year that he played every other shift and didn't have very much gas, but is a very good player and will become a fan favourite no doubt.
Golovatchev is a decent player and has a nose for the net. Could turn out to be an ok pick, IMO.
I have no idea whose bright idea it was to draft these twins. There is no way the centreman is better than Zabaneh of the Marlies, or the winger better than his teammate Brimmer.
