The more I learn about him, the more I like this pick.

I'm on a big vacation today so I barely had the chance. But so far very impressed with the draft.

I think we got a good one.

Welcome about Mr. McGroarty. Lets go!!

Seems like a great guy for fans to get behind and cheer for, quite unlike some current Jet flakes.

Why does Heisinger look like someone I would be afraid of if I stepped one foot on his lawn?

 

[Teemusalami204]

I guess this will be the guy we will build our new culture round, which I think is a good thing.
If Rutger (such an IT-Consultant name in Sweden) can be our Landeskog on and off the ice, this worth more than a missed talent. Jets need a glue guy

Let’s hope the culture starts to change before he gets in NHL 3 years from now

I think Zinger's just pissed off that they keep making him stand between tall people. Well, at least training with Barb Underhill, ya know McG will be able to land that double axel as a goal celly.

Seems like a great kid. Someone you pull for to succeed, kinda like Stanley. Just hope he turns out to be a better 1st round choice.

I bet Rutger McGroarty was graded an A+ on character. He exudes positivity, leadership, and investment into his teammates. I predict if he develops as expected he will one day be an Assistant if not Captain of the Jets. I am not sure how he knows Ivan Miroshnichenko but as the video shows, I am impressed with a guy who is so happy for others. The hug he gave the man was awesome.

Kid has a big personality, can see why he was the captain for the US national team. He has a genuineness to him.

He definitely appears excited to be drafted by the Winnipeg Jets!

They put Zinger out there to make all our picks look big.

...the f*** kind of name is Rutger?

It has something to do with a moose I think.

 

[GumbyCan2]

Maybe he turns into a Randy Gilhen 2.0 with more of a mean streak and consistent scoring?

 

[GumbyCan2]

Actually didnt realize how high his scoring is, gritty, smart, skilled player if he fixes his skating this could be a slam dunk..

Skating is so overstated. After all, this is the business of ICE Hockey played on ice. Skating is a little important, isn't it? He must know how to stand up and push and glide, right?

 

[GumbyCan2]

Zinger looks less than excited.

Probably just a case of "another cameraman" telling him to "stand up tall, I don't see you". No offense all u short-guys. Been thru this issue myself, at only 5'5" short, in my 70's platform boots! If looks could speak, bet Hey-Zingerman was ready to cold-cack the camera guy. Hhee, hee, hee...

Definitely gives off Michael Douglas from Falling Down vibes.

 

[DRW204]

So many Ruts in Winnipeg.... Might as well add another!

 

[Hunter368]

Love this pick more and more I see and read about him.

 

[Snot Rocket]

Dammit kid...stop making me like you more!

 

[Scheifele55]

Maybe he turns into a Randy Gilhen 2.0 with more of a mean streak and consistent scoring?

I hope his comparable isn't Randy Gilhen.

It is called being optimistic. Obviously him like every single player taken these last 2 days have to make it to the NHL first.
