and a Portland Winterhawk, double whammy.

 

[KareemTrustfund]

Ryan McCleary more like Ryan Mclearly a great pick! All aboard the Ryan hype train! Who’s with me!!?

 

[dogthateats]

He grew already. Dedication

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Andy, you're up. What're you gonna pull outta your magic hat o'bitching and moaning for this pick?

 

[Peat]

He grew already. Dedication

Get Pettersson on that diet

 

[dogthateats]

This says 6’2 180 too

 

[wej20]

Without combine this year I guess all heights are self-reported. I'm definitely 6'0 if Pens want to draft me to hang out with Riikola in the pressbox.

You know its the lottery tickets from the bottom of the barrel when they don't even have a picture on eliteprospects.

Here's to hoping this one's a winner

I'm 6'5", and I'll take half of Riikola's salary to hang out in the press box.

 

[Malkinstheman]

Transition’s where McCleary’s impact is most felt, and it’s through activation and deception rather than explosiveness. He deceives forecheckers with his eyes, looks to pass through pressure to create space up the ice, and accelerates out of his passes to join the rush

Ill take that every day of the week in the 7th round. Thank god we aren't taking D like Connor Hall anymore.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Heck of a pass at ~30 seconds.

 

[wej20]

Is he one of the youngest players in the draft?

 

[Jacob]

Pretty much all of Portland’s other D are aging out so nice situation for him to be in.

 

[dogthateats]

His Dad almost died in a Canadiens game

 

[TySmith4Norris]

Really like this pick

Big frame (sounds like he’s still growing), but better known for skating ability gets a thumbs up from me

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Nice pick, I like what I'm reading about him!

 

[HandshakeLine]

....154 LBS?

 

[dogthateats]

....154 LBS?

Oh look the muscle daddy fans are already criticizing this seventh round pick

 

[KareemTrustfund]

....154 LBS?

We can’t all have big and strong … and sexy….and delicious… and scrumptious muscles like you.

Choo choo

He's on the Pettersson diet of crackers and mustard.

 

[OtherThingsILike]

This is (so far) the end result of trading away the 1st in 2015 that was eventually used on Mathew Barzal.

Penguins 1st for David Perron.
David Perron for Carl Hagelin.
Carl Hagelin for Tanner Pearson.
Tanner Pearson for Erik Gudbranson.
Erik Gudbranson for Anaheim's 2021 7th.

(There were other players involved in some of these trades, but these were the most important parts of them.)

 

[Night Shift]

He's on the Pettersson diet of crackers and mustard.

Once in a while he parties hard over hot tea with splenda. Not every weekend though
