[AarG]

Jagger Firkus is a nice bet

 

[Legionnaire11]

Jani Nyman, another really nice pick

Nyman may be a reach but at this point in time, just take chances anyway.

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Janni Nyman at #49.

 

[AarG]

There is so much going on, it's super fast

 

[RainyCityHockey]

I hope we'll do get Gleb.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

I hope we'll do get Gleb.

I wonder if he is falling simply because he is a Russian playing in Russia.

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Only two picks before our 3rd 2nd rounder and both Odelius and Hutson are still available.

 

[The Marquis]

Digging that Firkus pick. Best player available 10 picks prior.

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Goaltender Niklas Kokko at #58.

 

[Legionnaire11]

Kokko is a bit of a reach there, but that's okay with so many early picks.

Niklas Kokko (G) picked by the Kraken, lots of free agent signings and drafted players from Finland.

Was thinking the same. Our scouting group must really be focused around Finland.

 

[kihei]

At least these guys should all know how to finnish really well

 

[RainyCityHockey]

And Glab goes right before us to Carolina.....

Looking at this we might be one of the teams that just doesn't take Russians at all...

BTW: David Goyette at #61 to Seattle.

 

[Legionnaire11]

David Goyette, I wouldn't have been surprised if he went at the end of the 1st, he should be a really good depth player...

Wright
Beniers
Goyette

That's nice center depth to have!

[kihei]

This seems like a damn good haul so far.

 

[RainyCityHockey]

This seems like a damn good haul so far.

Hmmm......

I'm a bit bummed we didn't take Trikozov and we also had Hutson and Sykora going right after us at #62 and #63.

I'm also not sure why we haven't made a trade so far.

You’re bummed? YOU’RE bummed? I’m bummed. I had plans for Gleb!

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Ty Nelson at #68.

 

[gstommylee]

Ty is a right hand Dman

 

[NiagaraKraken]

In love with this draft.

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Looks like we moved up

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Ron made a trade and took Ben MacDonald at #91.
