GDT: Are You Ready to Rummmm...er, Draaaaaaft!

[Marky9er]

Why did it say Beckman rose +10?

 

[Christien]

Anyone have a preference between Afanasyev, dorofeyev, and Spiridinov (I know there are a few more Russians expected to go around this time too)

I think Dorofeyev has the most potential and is the better player between the others you listed. I really want us to take him at 35

 

[wingsnut19]

we have 35 and what other pick?

54 and 60 in the 2nd round.

 

[acetehubernoob]

54 and 60 in the 2nd round.

wow I thought we only had 2 2nds.

 

[Zetterbeer]

I think Dorofeyev has the most potential and is the better player between the others you listed. I really want us to take him at 35

I agree, he is a definite favourite of mine for the next pick.

 

[Zetterbeer]

This is my order for the remaining.

Lavoie
Hoglander
Kaliyev
Brink
Dorofeyev
Leason
Rees

Wonder if we could trade 54 and 66 to move up and get two of these guys

 

[Martinez]

That’s the most Boston pick ever

 

[wingsnut19]

wow I thought we only had 2 2nds.

One extra from the Tatar trade, the other from the Nyquist trade.

 

[RedWingzz]

What time does the 2nd round start? Eastern time tomorrow?

1:00

 

[SuperScript29]

Beecher could be a future Lucic if he reaches his potential.

 

[Hen Kolland]

Man what the hype does the book say on Lavoie?

 

[lhsgolf19]

Man 1 of Lavoie, Kaliyev, Hoglander or Brink will be there at 35... Yes Please!

 

[Christien]

Bobby Brink still not drafted

 

[SuperScript29]

Alright, looking good for tomorrow, but don't be shocked if Yzerman goes off board again...

 

[Unfriendly Ghost]

Cozens and Johnson is a good haul for Buffalo.

 

[RedWingzz]

If we get Lavoie or Kaliyev I'm going to be pumped.

 

[Marky9er]

Man 1 of Lavoie, Kaliyev, Hoglander or Brink will be there at 35... Yes Please!

I was sure those were going to be the last handful of names called tonight and wasn't going to get my hopes up. I'm pleasantly surprised.

 

[Zetterbeer]

Man getting 51 goal scorer Kaliyev would really easy the pain of reaching for a defenseman.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Man getting 51 goal scorer Kaliyev would really easy the pain of reaching for a defenseman.

Why did he drop?

 

[Christien]

Why did he drop?

He needs to work on his competitiveness and be engaged more physically, but the talent is there for sure. If I were to guess he probably didn't interview well, either.

 

[Zetterbeer]

Why did he drop?

Could be attitude and consistency issues bothering GM's. Could be that a bunch of GM's just had 1 or 2 guys infront of him that happened to be there. This does seem rare though.

 

[Ezekial]

So many D went that we're gonna get a good forward at 35, what a draft. Madness.

 

[Zetterbeer]

So many D went that we're gonna get a good forward at 35, what a draft. Madness.

Kind of makes it easier that we took a good one early

 

[Go Wings]

Brink, Lavoie, Leason, Kaliyev or take a D in Kolyachonok or Robertson and I will be happy.

 

[DatsMagic]

After hearing Mckenzie say kaliyev "plays when he wants to" I hope they don't draft him. We don't need mantha 2.0 on this team.
