GDT: 2018 NHL Entry Draft

[Anaheim4ever]

CBJ selected a guy named Berni lol in the 6th round, so if someday he died on the ice they'll stand him up on skates & pretend Berni is still alive (& somehow he scores a goal too) ! Weekend at Bernies 3: Berni meets Goon.

 

[Goose of Reason]

McLaughlin I think is a very good pick in the 3rd. He can rip the puck.

 

[Getzmonster]

C (x2), G (x2), RW, LW... I'll be surprised if our guys don't grab a d-man before all is said and done.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Washington selects possibly the first Thai born player in NHL history ? Alex Kannok-Leipert in 6th round.

 

[Opak]

HF legend Mathias Emilio Pettersen to Calgary at 167.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

I think my guy Bouchard is still available, also would like Jakob Brahaney who went undrafted last year but was probably the most improved player in the OHL.

 

[Opak]

Jackets take Veini Vehviläinen at 173.

 

[Getzmonster]

Show the picks, damn.

 

[Opak]

Hunter Drew to Anaheim at 178. Welcome!

 

[Getzmonster]

There's our D pick, sounded like Hunter Drew in the background of this non-coverage blather.

 

[RakAttack]

Jeez I’m watching the draft to watch the draft.... they haven’t even shown the board in the 6th round, let alone acknowledge any picks whatsoever. Still a huge deal for these young guys being drafted, act like it NHL Network....

 

[Opak]

Ducks 2018 draft class:

Isac Lundeström (C), Benoit-Olivier Groulx (C), Blake McLaughlin (RW), Lukas Dostal (G), Jack Perbix (RW), Roman Durny (G), Hunter Drew (D)

 

[Anaheim4ever]

Hunter Drew had 159 Penalty minutes in 64 games, Josh Manson 2.0 ?

 

[Getzmonster]

I like that he's a righty with NHL size, we're a little lefty heavy in our D prospect pool.

 

[Opak]

NHL Network broadcast rumoring that Pacioretty is on his way to SJ.

 

[Opak]

Heusy's guy Bouchard to Vegas at 185.

 

[Ducks in a row]

2018 NHL Draft

So we drafted

2 C's
1 LW
1 RW
1 D
2 G's

 

[The Midnight Burrito]

Meh. A boring start to what I presume will be a desultory summer.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Hunter Drew had 159 Penalty minutes in 64 games, Josh Manson 2.0 ?

Hunter Drew Fights

 

[Static]

We took three players in this draft that multiple draft analysts had pegged in the first round. Really interested to see how they all develop.

Meh. A boring start to what I presume will be a desultory summer.

What would you have done to make this draft "exciting"? The spots the Ducks are drafting obviously there will be no immediate impact players

 

[MMC]

So no D last draft and only one in the 6th round this draft?

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Nate Dunkley undrafted, didn't see that coming.

 

[cheesymc]

I wonder what Dman Madden refered to as the one they missed... 3rd round... was it Regula... Harris?

 

[ADHB]

Anyone know which Dman Madden refereed to as missing out on in the 3rd?

Where did you read that quote?

 

[WhatTheDuck]

My best guess would be Regula, perhaps Ragnarsson.
