Drafting for upside in the mid-late rounds. Grabbed two goalies. First round pick certainly filling a need. Trading second round pick for Grubauer was a good move.
Not going to grade this draft since the only players I am remotely familiar with are Kaut and Annunen. I do like what they've been doing in the past two drafts, swinging for the gamble picks in the lower rounds. I'm actually totally okay with the Saigeon pick, I mean it's the 5th round that's the perfect time to grab an overager. He was also once pretty highly rated, so who knows, maybe he just took longer than others to put it together.
Going off the first two round alone I have to give this draft an A. I really like the Kaut pick and Grubauer trade.
I'm unfamiliar with the rest of the draft but based on what most are saying around here we went with lots of big upside projects, which is exactly what we should be doing in those rounds.
I said C but I was only counting the draft, not the whole weekend. I feel like the draft will end up netting us a middle 6 winger and that’s it. But I suppose I wouldn’t be too unhappy with that result as we have a need there.
