NHL Stylistic Comparable:

– Jaden Schwartz

– A left-handed version of Patrice Bergeron.

Wow. I'd take that all day.

This kid can play, love the pick.

 

[bauerpower]

We have our Bossy for our upcoming dynasty

 

[Sorge Georos]

The "size trumps all guys" on this board must not be very happy.

If it makes you folks feel better, TB/CHI are chock full of these smaller guys.

 

[GrandmaSlices51631]

I was really hoping for Carlsson or Kylington but I definitely commend Snow for the unpredictable and ballsy moves.

 

[SI90]

Can we just call him Tony or Frenchie?

And according to that, we took him right about where he was expected, late third of the first round. Could potentially be another steal.

Dem forward prospects.

 

[dtrain24]

Best part is that this was supposed to be the Rags pick.

 

[Macch]

A better Casey Cizikas ?

Snow's second 1st rounders all seem like plus picks to this point. CdH; Nelson; JHS and now Beauvillier. The early reports of this kid are encouraging.

I absolutely hate losing Griff but the excitement around these two kids has helped soften the blow.

That's the first thing I thought of too. This kid is way more skilled and has got a sick shot.

That's 2 years in a row we ended up drafting in the Rangers slot

That, and the fact that we have Pulock and Mayfield on the way.

Oh, I know.

I hope Beavillier and JHS both end up becoming studs for us.

 

[SI90]

Word is his character and leadership is off the charts. Def fits the mold of what we do.

It is 90, he'll do anything to win.

...and a nice prospect in Pelech, and others like Burroughs and Graham behind them.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Beauvillier is a Martin St-Louis in the making.

 

[steveat]

I personally think Pelech will be better than Mayfield, but Mayfield does remind me of a stable Myers which is amazing. I never thought he would make it. I was proven wrong.

Could someone that have seen these picks play give us other folk the skinny?

You guys are killing me with his compete level. I'm going to be up all night getting to know this kid and Barzal.

Unlike every other year, I did practically ZERO research this year and I'm a serious draftnik too as you guys know. I feel like that kid on X-Mas morning that screamed his ass off.

We can do it again next year, Arizona has the Rags pick.
