Update 2: It's Draft Year... Time to Kill it
The moment we have been working to our whole lives. The 2019 draft. Our superstars have been working hard and are ready to amp up their play this season in order to get drafted as high as possible. There will be a lot of changes going into this season. The college guys their contracts expired and I couldn't get them back onto college teams unfortunately, so some guys went to europe and some guys transitioned to the CHL. I'm excited for you to see how your guys did!

Draft Review:
I'm happy everyone went in the first round. I like where everyone went. Basically all our guys address needs that each team needs. I think Landon Flare is in the best destination for him. There couldn't be a better match. I like Vegito Blue going to Boston. I think he can be the center of the future. David Norton going to Vancouver will be really solid for that club as well.
Zigmund Visnovsky is gonna be a sleeper in my opinion. Didn't hear much about him in junior but I expect he'll come and do some damage in LA.
