[Mr. Canucklehead]

Defender out of Moose Jaw. 44 games, 9 goals, 16 assists last season.

 

[Seatoo]

What an absolutely terrible pick.

 

[VeteranNetPresence]

Probably won't put up the points buts I guess that's why they picked Hughes

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Woooooooo

I love the pick, ranked in the mid 1st, potential top pairing dman
Discuss.

 

[Nucker42]

What an absolutely terrible pick.

? tell us what you really think

 

[Fire Benning]

Stay at home defenseman with multiple concussions. Not sure how I feel about this.

Not a terrible pick, but given who was available I don't think he would've been my first choice.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

What an absolutely terrible pick.

What?? Great pick.

 

[BassMason]

All name team! Woo!

 

[Fire Benning]

 

[GPNuck]

What?? Great pick.

I know nothing about him, scouting report?

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Cobcussion

Stay at home defenseman with multiple concussions. Not sure how I feel about this.

Concussion history is fine. He’s not a stay at home dman he’s very mobile. We finally have a RH Shot Potential Top 4 dman

 

[Nuckles]

If it's true he suffered multiple concussions in the past year then I do not like this pick at all. Would have preferred Addison or Durzi on defense. Also would have liked Wise or Thomas.


With that said, Jett Woo is an elite name.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Nice write up from Sportsnet.

I like this pick, nothing amazing but he's solid in his own zone with +29 on the year.

9 goals in 44 games ain't too shabby either.

Did not know about the concussion history, that isn't good.

 

[Kel Varnson]

Not my first choice but good pick. Hopefully he can stay healthy next season.

[Burke's Evil Spirit]

Not super thrilled with this pick. Intriguing player but with 2 concussions and guys like Addison, Wise, and Thomas on the board it's hard to love it.

Woo was a guy I wanted with the 3rd round pick.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Looks like the injuries were shoulder and hip, no mention of concussion. Stocky defender who likes to engage physically and has an intelligent stick with character/leadership.

Wasn't one of my top choices, but I'm not disappointed with this at all.

 

[Serac]

I like Woo, but the potential concussions are the concern. Exact same reason why I did not want Boqvist at all. If he can put the injuries behind him, Woo could be a very good pick. Unsure about using pick #37 on him though.

 

[Knight53]

I like Woo

could be a solid 2-way defensive first second pairing guy.

impressed me at the Hlinka

 

[Canadian Canuck]

I know nothing about him, scouting report?

Was very good offensively before his concussion then he got put in a defensive shutdown role and played tremendously. He has massive potential imo. Very high chance he’s a top 4 dman.

 

[jonnygf40]

Not happy. Better players available. How could you pass on Thomas?

 

[pitseleh]

Probably a justifiable pick on talent, but I really dislike taking a player with his injury history this high.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Where are we seeing that he had concussions? The Sportsnet article highlights a separated shoulder and hip injuries, nothing about concussions in there.
