Last thread had 1000 posts we need to move here

 

FYI Hamilton was the guy I ninja edited, was starting to get excited thinking I'd get he and Jones

 

Kuz-Pasta-OEL I’m a fan

 

Yeah I really wanted Hamilton there.

If Weber got taken I was likely going to just forget about D considering how the good ones were flying off the board. Glad to get that all-situations #1 D though.

 

I love Hamilton and the thought of taking him over Jones was a little crazy, good thing you made the right call in the end

 

Yea I feel like there's a pretty sizable difference there.

 

Yeah I made a choice I'm happy with, I can't believe how destroyed my list just got though holy, all my top D/my top C targets gone

 

Agreed.

 

Hamilton here was a steal.

But agreed if you took him over Jones in the 1st that would be a big reach.

 

Ah. Got it. Thanks.

 

Hmmmm......

I’m not the greatest judge of talent, and I think Jones and Hamilton are both excellent defensemen, but I’d take Hamilton over Jones if we’re considering just this season. Hamilton was playing like a legit Norris trophy candidate this season. I’m actually quite shocked that he dropped so far down.

 

I think it’s close as well, but Jones has the better name value for polls so I had him valued higher for sure.

 

I feel like a broadway fan with all this Hamilton talk

 

Matthew Tkachuk, Edmonton Oiler

@Joey Moss your avatar is forever

 

Tkachuk on the Oilers is amazing

 

Yea that's pretty gross, but I figured Tkachuk would go there. Good pick.

 

If only he had Doughty too lol

 

Was strongly debating taking Tkachuk to create an elite top line.

Glad I passed and he went to Edmonton.

 

Battle of Alberta still on

 

He was on my radar as well if dmen kept dropping like flies

 

@Joey Moss and @Nucker101 ,

The grief you guys caused me with your picks!!!! :-p.

 

ffs ellis was supposed to slip to the fourth round

 

So I take it that my Ellis pick is a Panda approved pick? :-p.
