GDT: Draft Day GDT, put your mildly happy but still really pissed overall face on

[TheBeard]

Max Mccue sounds like someone taken just on his name.

 

[Kcoyote3]

Sounds like a placeholder name. I don't think he actually exists.

 

[sharks_dynasty]

this is actually the ultimate "who?" draft

Exactly. This guy (Max) played very few games last year and had underwhelming stats prior to that. Definitely a “what were you thinking” kind of pick.

Watch out Jeffrey Viel

Theo Hill vs. Max McCue, December 13, 2019 - Sarnia Sting vs. London Knights

I mean at this point, they're all "what were you thinking" picks. They either work out or they don't.

eh. i'm kinda down for OHL gambles this far down in the draft.

 

[Steel Fishbowl]

Not saying he's on the same level, but look at the jump Luke Evangelista made from his first to second year in London. We'll just have to wait to see what McCue can bring when he gets some ice time

 

[Pavelski2112]

William von Barnekow Lofberg sounds like a WWI general

seems like London does a pretty good job developing kids that play his style too.

ooh gilmartin could be a nice pick.

 

[Negatively Positive]

Was DW Jr. so stoked about getting Eklund that he got hungover and Burke is the one running the draft today?

 

[YUPPY]

Doug Wilson is drafting many picks from odd places. Here is the next choice. From New Zealand Auckland Admirals: (D) Aye Wannaplaymaker 6'8.

 

[Pavelski2112]

Fellow Jan 7th birthday, I like this guy already

 

[TheBeard]

Liam Gilmartin? All of these names sound like generic video game hockey names.

 

[Harbessix]

Really hoping we take Florian Elias if he’s still available with one of our last two picks.

 

[hohosaregood]

I'm seeing Gilmartin rankings in roughly the ~3rd round from a few outlets
Scouting Report: Liam Gilmartin - Smaht Scouting

on a quick read, seems like he could be a Barclay Goodrow or Blake Coleman.

 

[OrrNumber4]

This Theo fellow put up some decent numbers in the Swedish 2nd-league (same league as Dahlen).

 

[hohosaregood]

scouching liking the theo jacobsson pick. not a lot of info online though

 

[The Nemesis]

C Theo Jacobsson - MoDo (Swe)

He's from MoDo's home of Ornskoldsvik. So he's pretty much going to be a superstar because that place does nothing but churn out good NHLers (Peter Forsberg, Markus Naslund, the Sedins, Victor Hedman, Nik Sundstrom, Tobias Enstrom...)

Swedish Theo Fleury

 

[TheBeard]

Swedish Theo Fleury

Swedo Fjeury

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

This Theo fellow put up some decent numbers in the Swedish 2nd-league (same league as Dahlen).

He scored 0 points in 5 games in that league.

 

[The Nemesis]

Oilers take Shane Lachance

Someone do a wellness check on Tim Burke.

 

[tealzamboni]

William von Barnekow Lofberg sounds like a WWI general

 

[Levie]

My Synopsis of this draft: We got Eklund and some other guys.
