GDT: 2018 NHL Entry Draft Day 2 - Begins 11AM EST

[SeaOfBlue]

The cost of this pick was a 6th rounder next draft. Which doesnt make sense since we traded for the first pick in that round.

Yeah are you sure it's not a 5th? Or at least something else included?

What do we know about Holmberg

 

[SprDaVE]

Anyone over 6'0 is on the Do Not Draft List.

Kral is 6'1" --- Durzi is 6'

 

[SeaOfBlue]

seems like a bad trade for buff

TRADE: The @MapleLeafs acquire the @BuffaloSabres 6th round pick for Toronto’s 2019 6th round pick. #NHLDraft

Yeah. I'll take it. Holmberg is off the board but I'll trust it based on reputation. Seems like a smart and skilled guy, just small and in a lower mens league.

Kral is 6'1

Yup. Leafs twitter confirms 6th for 6th.

Leafs made a trade?
They drafted Pontus Holmberg at 156?
If these idiots on NHL Network would finally shut their yaps and talk trades we could figure it out.

 

[Smif]

9 picks in a draft after a 105 point season is awesome.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

I want Alexis Gravel now. 7th round would be a perfect place for him if he drops. At least that'll make up for things because he has 3rd round skill that you would get in the 7th.

 

[sxvnert]

Yup. Leafs twitter confirms 6th for 6th.

I assume 2019 is a deeper draft.

Weird one, considering Buffalo’s is near the top of the 6th round while ours will be near the end of the 6th round. I guess Buffalo already has so many picks they are maybe looking at their contract maximum is the coming years and want to spread a pick out to next year instead

 

[Nooodles]

What do we know about Holmberg

He probably has asthma problems and will be a star for us in about 5 years.

 

[sxvnert]

The Pontus Holmberg trade/pick has Bergman written all over it.

 

[crump]

I assume 2019 is a deeper draft.

Or Dubas convinced Buffalo they could draft higher next year with our 6th

 

[deletethis]

Holmberg played with men last season.

you just HAD to say his name

Something being overlooked - an excellent situation for a recent playoff team to have

lets make it 2 more, then i'll be content.

I don't even think they've discussed pick let alone the trade. Correct that, the last 3 Leafs' picks.

Buried on a deep team with an extra bone in his foot, finally exploded in the U18 playing with Dahlin.

 

[Judas Tavares]

I am LOVING the Ontario Power Generation beaver commercial.

 

[hockeynorth]

Okay on my board I still have: Dunkley, Moskal, Kirk, Bouthillier, Burzan, Eggenberger and Sokolov

 

[ScJeff]

Last two picks: Id like a Bergmann pick and a goalie. I will not know any of the names the leafs select with the two but I will be pumped if that happens and act like I knew who they were!

 

[Rare Jewel]

What do we know about Holmberg

Played against men this year and is going to play in the SHL next season (possibly a loan to a Allsvenskan club?).

Interesting pick.

So he has hidden mutant powers? Dubas really is awesome
