Great to see some great seasons be recognized.
...Lundell...
The team has selected a Fin in each of the last 3 drafts, last year it was Viro.I'm thinking we really, really need to look harder at Finland moving forward.

I think people were too fixated on Raymond last draft just like they are with Eklund this draft. I had Lundell below Drysdale and Sanderson so he wouldn't have been my pick anyways. If Raymond busts and Lundell becomes a star, well... that's on Hakan.

Well yeah, but I think the defensemen (which was my pick) and the goalie will turn out OK. Not really sure about the wingers and centers picked above him though....and the other teams that passed on him.
The guy went 12th.

Of course Lundell could flop too, but 1 PPG in Liiga is similar to Aho's stats so it's looking good for him so far.
We don't care about other teams, we want them to screw up.I was trying to point out that other teams than the Wings passed on him. Maybe they're wrong, but its not on one person.
Raymond was good last seasonHe definitely didn’t really showcase himself that well last season. Hoping he can bounce back this year.

Hard to compare. Aho did it for a full season + playoffs. Lundell a shortened season (with a lot more goals than assists = could be more of a hot run with high shooting %) and didn't score much in playoffs.Of course Lundell could flop too, but 1 PPG in Liiga is similar to Aho's stats so it's looking good for him so far.

For real, nothing about his performance says bust. He's right on track to be a top line guy if he hits his potentialRaymond was good last season

All those teams who picked at 5-11 are wrong.
Not sure about Wings, I still keep Raymond and Lundell as 50/50 choise at draft time.
Think we will be fine with Raymond, but Florida got the steal who should have been 5th overall at least.

Would be nice to lean into European scouting in general until our North American scouting improves.I'm thinking we really, really need to look harder at Finland moving forward.
