GDT: 2015 NHL Entry Draft (We're still not Boston) - Rounds 2-7

[Dread Clawz]

So we got a small quick forward. Watch the same people who complain we go for big slow players, complain that this guy is too small!

You were right LOL.

 

[Rat Trick]

Chinese player gone to the Isles. Unusual?

Maybe first?

I can't believe no one took Tim McGauley, the leading scorer of Hawerlyk's junior team. That kid improved a lot since last season and he's 19.

Updated the OP with all of our picks so far.

 

[SoupyFIN]

Joni Tuulola got picked, cool. His dad had a very long Liiga career.

 

[SoupyFIN]

7th round, we have #192 and #206.

 

[AwesomePanthers]

Doubt we take another goaltender.

Damn Leafs too Korostelev too..

 

[SoupyFIN]

Damn, Columbus got a real steal #189 Markus Nutivaara. He had really strong playoffs and is primed for a breakout season.

Our pick is next.

 

[FlaPanthers11]

Patrick Shea

 

[Jean Luc Discard]

The ever lasting love towards collage-players continues.

 

[Mogo]

God damn Leafs got so many picks who I wanted. Really good draft

 

[Thewselius]

 

[FlaPanthers11]

Ryan Bednard

 

[SoupyFIN]

#206 is up now.

Ryan Bednard goalie.

 

[Effe]

Maybe first?

Saros was smaller, didn't play in Mestis and still got picked.

Vehviläinen went undrafted.. wow.

Good lord is that kid raw. Let him stay in the NCAA forever

Vehviläinen went undrafted.. wow.

Yeah, I know. However, no one else didn't pick him either so there must be something else to it... or not.

Well clearly teams had concerns about Vehvilainen. He was projected to be gone by the 5th but wasn't drafted. We're not the only team.

Patrick Shea

that name tho! shea-Shea-SHEA!

got trap written all over it.


my fave pick of the 2015 draft

 

[SoupyFIN]

Yeah, I know. However, no one else didn't pick him either so there must be something else to it... or not.

He's probably going to be the Husso of next year's draft and teams will look foolish for not taking him with their 6th and 7th round picks.

Seriously, the chances of getting a goalie at the late rounds is way higher than getting a quality forward or d-man.

Well yeah he's still playing hs hockey in his junior year. But he looks like a good flyer in the 7th.
