Confirmed with Link: Habs draft Mike McCarron with the 25th overall pick (signs ELC, will play in OHL)

[OneSharpMarble]

I agreed, we should let you choose from now on.

What experience do you have in that field ?

Someone who belongs in the NHL DESPITE his size, not simply because of it.

OOoohh goody we got a coke machine, hopefully he can actually make it to the NHL past the 3rd line.

 

[Franck]

This guy better not end up being Jessiman 2.0

 

[Myron Gaines*]

Beast

Puck protection! What we desperately need.

 

[Em Ancien]

By the time he is able to even play for us we likely wont even need what he brings. Bottom 6 player book it. Wouldn't doubt him being a career AHL player

I'm so glad we have people of such valuable opinions. What would we do without people like you to be complete assclowns?

 

[Nom de Guerre]

Turner Stevenson with no hands.

omg

 

[Leo Getz]

Dat net presence.

 

[Jee]

Hope he destroys Sam Morin's face in a couple of years.

He's huuuuuuuuuuge !

 

[deandebean]

I love all the judgments here, while all you guys saw of him was 2-3 games... Boy, do I remember the Subban draft trade thread.

 

[Anardil]

Turner Stevenson part deux. Super Meeeeeeehhhh.

 

[Ginu]

Scored in each of the last three games for the USA U18s including the Gold Medal Game.

 

[hogtownhabsfan*]

Ill trust Timmons here, but counting on McCarron is big risk

 

[AboveandBeyond]

Erne Zykov hopefully with our next pick !

 

[donghabs98]

With picks at 34th and 36th I think it was a risk that was worth it. He is some big

 

[FF de Mars]

It's a reach, as much as Morin with the Flyers. I love it.

 

[Kid Dynomite]

In perhaps one of the quickest draft grades ever, the Canadiens selecting McCarron is graded as a B- by CBSSports.com:

People should know I'm a fan. Took him in 2nd round of Habs board mock. Hope he plays in London.

2nd round not the 1st. Habs looking desperate for size now lol. 2nd worst pick after Calgary's 23rd overall pick

 

[Number 57]

Surprising pick, could have been available in the 2nd. Zykov and Erne are also two big kids that can score and are from the Q. Let's hope Timmins hits it out of the park with this one, getting a Lucic lookalike!

 

[Timelord]

I'm happy with him, if he pans out, he'll make space on the ice for Galchenyuk. I can see why a few here feel like they just got socks for Christmas, but those are mighty big socks.

 

[Analyzer*]

Hopefully he goes to London.

If we get Zykov at 34, it's pretty good. That looks possible.

 

[gusfring]

I love all the judgments here, while all you guys saw of him was 2-3 games... Boy, do I remember the Subban draft trade thread.

I had seen Subban play about 30 times before being drafted and thought it was a great pick.

 

[FlyingKostitsyn]

Wow. The guy is humongous

Hopefully he can play, but I liked his interview ''I have grit. I love to fight. I stand in front of the net. Yeah I'm the solution to all the Habs problems lol, and I'm taller than half our top6 combined.''

If we get Zykov at 34, it's pretty good. That looks possible.

I sure hope we draft comrade Zykov!

 

[xposbrad]

I hate this pick, the habs messed up. We just got a scrub 4th liner who can't shoot. He's going back to college, and he should have been picked in the 2nd round, not with our 1st rounder.

 

[Jmac1160*]

I'm so glad we have people of such valuable opinions. What would we do without people like you to be complete assclowns?

what should we do with self entitled internet tough guys like you? Joker

 

[Banjo Cat]

Well, we basically drafted three players in the first round. McCarron and the two guys he ate.

 

[saintflannel]

REALLY wanted Hartman
