Surprised, but they know what they're doing.

 

[BUCKLE UP]

Very happy.

 

[Anca18]

Uh...I don't know...he seems very excited so that's good to see.

 

[EveryDay]

Terrific pick by you guys!!!!!!!!!!

 

[BurgoShark]

Sounds like Condra with hands

 

[40oz]

You're going to love him. Fantastic pick.

Uh...I don't know...he seems very excited so that's good to see.

He's always smiling, whether he gets robbed on a break away or roughed up in the corner. Kid loves the game, huge compete, intangibles through the roof

 

[Silvercup Returns]

Pew pew!

 

[Hale The Villain]

Meh.

 

[Deku]

Wanted Shinkaruk but I trust management. My uncle and dad are gonna be happy about this pick.

 

[Emery]

Wanted Shinkaruk or Rychel, but this seems like a good pick.

 

[Connor McSaviour]

Hes awesome. He's gonna be a fan Favorite in no time.

 

[KAPOW]

well not the choice i like best but i trust our scouting staff. he comes from the oil kings, not the worst organisation the past years.
guess he'll play wing here.

 

[The Waffler]

Good pick. Really like it.

 

[NyQuil]

Bleh.

He's always smiling, whether he gets robbed on a break away or roughed up in the corner. Kid loves the game, huge compete, intangibles through the roof

Erik Condra always smiles too.

Doesn't mean I'd select him with my 1st round pick.

 

[Emerica]

Love it.

 

[GrantLemons]

Seems like he's got great character. Really like the pick.

 

[SevenOfSpades]

His smiling reminds me of Puempel.

 

[dss97]

You guys got an excellent player. Good two way player, good skater, and he isn't afraid to play physical. He has one of the best wrist shots in the draft.

 

[Laphroaig]

I'm pleased. I see him as the best player left at this time. Mantha or Shinkaruk would have been fine with me as well but Lazar seems like the safer pick. I understand that he's a great skater which I love.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Kid reminds me of Dan Paille

Solid player but I don't know how much he's going to score at the next level

 

[YouGotAStuGoing]

Keep hearing the upsides from people trying to convince us he's a good pick. I think he's a good pick too, but I'd be curious to hear what he needs to work on.

 

[Benjamin]

Meh. Not happy at all.

Forgive me Murray, for I am a moron.

 

[SensBrawler]

Seems like he can score, play a two way game and occasionally fight.

 

[Scrub*]

Big strong winger with hands, what's not to like ?
