from DraftAnalyst report:
"An athletic netminder who is developing a reputation as one of the WHL’s best at stopping the puck, Garand was second
only to Everett’s Dustin Wolf in both goals-against average and save percentage among goalies with at least 30 starts."

Everyone craps on the G pick but they have to stock pile.
What pick was Shesterkin ? Hmmmmm

Change is good.
Well, we do a good job turning these guys into solid backups and then picks.

Good pick, he was one of the goalies I liked for this round or the next.

Pronman had him ranked relatively high, especially considering he doesn't really like Goalies compared to Skaters in prospect rankings.

Garand was a top goalie in the WHL and an important part of why Kamloops was such a good team. Garand is a fun player to watch because he is exceptionally quick. He can get to almost any puck and can steal a game due to how consistently he can make the high difficulty stop. Garand isn’t the biggest goalie and it’s a reason why he was the eighth goalie picked in his WHL Bantam Draft. But he has consistently shown he can put up numbers and help a team despite his size. His size and good but not exceptional IQ are why some scouts don’t buy the pro projection, but I think he tends to stay in control, doesn’t hurt himself, and the elite quickness is going to translate.

Agreed. I hate the Shesterkin pick most of all.

Absolutely nothing wrong with this pick. Especially if Georgiev is not here long term (which he probably isn't). Necessary for depth at position.

Goalie picks are boring but you just expect them to never take a goalie again? Rangers have a pretty good track record with them overall so can we just not whine about them using their 5th pick in the draft on one?

Hope his stock continues to rise. Let's not be too negative about the goalie pick and a little positive about the player. I'd hate to be an 18 year old on the receiving end of complaints about a 10 year old tradition of the Rangers picking goalies too early.

The difference is we knew Hank would be nearing the end by the time Igor would be in the league. Igor’s career is just starting and he’s looked really good in the time we’ve seen him play. We can expect Igor to last 10 years at least, so what do you do in 5 years when the guy is ready to play and we have Igor locked up long term for big money?

Much better than using a 2nd on one. Seems like an ok goalie prospect

Change is good.
All kidding aside, we can't really be negative in the 4th round, can we? No problem taking a goalie here.
Wait, who am I kidding, of course some people will...

You never know what is going to happen. How do you know a few years in advance if Shesterkin gets injured or gets offer sheeted? If you like the player, you take him. Then you have options and you don't have to scramble. Jesus Christ people on this board complain about everything.

goalies are so cheap on the market - I mean look at this last two weeks - almost not worth drafting if you have a bona fide starter
