Think there's any chance that Nashville meant to draft this guy instead of Tyler Moy?

LOL This what my exact question when I saw that they drafted him

Yeah, same as Hicketts last year. It ending up working out really well for him.

Honestly have to wonder if scouts are just too lazy/cheap to take a ferry to Victoria.

Hicketts laughably undrafted last year. Reddekopp going absurdly low this year. Soy not drafted.

I'm confused as hell, to say the least.

So strange there is a guy with such a similar name, I thought maybe it was a mistake when I 1st saw it.

I was at the draft and I thought it was a typo. It took me a few moments before I realized that I'm friends of friends of Moy's parents who are in San Diego. Snapped a picture of the draft board and passed it along. If I recall correctly, Nashville's head scout Paul Fenton is stationed in the Boston area so they tend to draft New England prospects more frequently than others. With Moy being at Harvard (maybe a Jimmy Vesey connection), the pick started to make sense.
