[iReckless]

He reminds me of a young Jagr

lol no way

 

[DitClapper]

He reminds me of a young Petr Tenkrat.

 

[Neely08]

He reminds me of a young Petr Tenkrat.

If this were true, every opposing player in that video would be dead now.

Or, at least wish they were.

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

He reminds me of a young Petr Tenkrat.

Now let's not get carried away.

 

[Over the volcano]

He reminds me of a young Petr Tenkrat.

Yeah, like a 6 month old Tenkrat maybe.

 

[KRM]

Getting Pastrnak at 25 is a steal IMO, congratulations.

Pastrnak: "I've been trying to play like Krejci since I was born. He is my idol." #Bruins

Pastrnak 1-on-1 for @NESNSportsToday on what position he prefers: "I will do anything I can. Coach wants me to play goalie? I play goalie!"

"Absolutely loves the game; great desire and plays every shift as if it were his last."- Red Line Report #Pastrnak

Excellent pick for Boston- Pastrnak was 14th-ranked skater by Red Line Report. Surges by other players late in year dropped him in B's lap

Kirk Luedeke ‏@kluedeke29 2h
Pastrnak has a lot that B's fans will like: speed, skill, scoring, sense & spirit. Goes into traffic & while not having much size, has moxie

Boston Bruins ‏@NHLBruins 1h
Chiarelli compares Pastrnak to Krejci but he's more of a winger. Good on the boards, protects the puck, good combo of grit & skill ^CS

Looks like a solid pick.

Looks like a solid pick.

Thx nice read.

 

[KuralySnipes]

I'm getting more and more excited as I read more about this kid.

 

[Dellstrom]

That was the WJC's (U-20) massive, MASSIVE difference. He was 17 playing against mainly older guys. He looked threatening and quite skilled every game I watched of the Czechs (have never seen him in Sweden).

I like the pick --if we take Hunter Smith tomorrow I will like the pick more

Forgot WJC was U-20... even more impressive

 

[HanktheHammer*]

Great pick by Chiarelli and the scouting staff. Pastrnak looks like a blue-chipper. He might be the steal of the draft. I just hope JFJ tenure with the Bruins is a short one. Leaf Fans are laughing at us over this one.

 

[HanktheHammer*]

Does anybody know if T S N or some other broadcaster going to televise the later rounds tomorrow?

 

[KrejciMVP]

Looks like a solid pick.

I couldnt think of a better idol to have

he looks really confident and poised with the puck. major wishful thinking here but with this team's cap situation we could really use a surprise in camp like Bergeron making the team at 18. I'll say a little prayer that this kid does it, haha.

Would be cool if he turned out to be a Hertl type for us.

NHL Network

Thanks, Bruinator. Darn, I don't get the NHL Network. Do you know if they are streaming the draft live? If not, then I go to work tomorrow.

Yea, it would be a miracle. Maybe, just maybe he could play next to the Yeti on the third line......wishful thinking.

Pretty sure it restarts on Saturday at 10:00 Eastern, and that TSN or TSN2 will be covering it.

TSN or TSN2 are covering Wimbledon (but not the World Cup) so unless there is some mad fishing tournament they should be on it.

Thanks for the info, kytem2. Once I get up early enough, I have enough time to watch the draft unfold before I go to work. It's going to be a long day at the office. LOL!

According to this http://www.nhl.com/ and this http://www.tsn.ca/tsnschedule/?collection=72&show=68592 , TSN nor TSN 2 are covering it. On NHL NEtwork only.

Jakub Vrana was first Czech player chosen, at pick 13, by Capitals. But Pastrnak had taken over number one rating spot for top Czech prospects this year according to this article. So an excellent late first round pick no doubt.

meh i wanted Scherbak and i will stick with that.

Still a good pick so we'll see.

Ok, got it.
