This was said 5 days before the draft. Seems like people love Durzi and he's AHL ready for next season.

I really like the pick.
He'll get complaints though because he's not a name posters recognize.
Side note, the HF servers are compete trash.

From The Athletic's Jonathan Willis:
"Durzi produced pretty well in his original draft year, 2016-17, despite undergoing ankle surgery at the start of the year that limited his ability to impress. This past season was significantly better, though, with Durzi topping the point-per-game mark by a healthy margin, putting him at a similar scoring level as players like John Carlson and Ryan Ellis in their Draft+1 campaigns. He should certainly be selected this time around, and if production were the only consideration he might even squeak into the first round, though I expect he has to wait longer than his point totals would suggest."

I just want to say this now.
If we selected Durzi at 52 last season and he had 65 pts in 51 game we would be pretty pumped about his development.
That's all I can comment on this pick.

I thought the new servers were supposed to prevent this kinda garbage.
Don’t mind the pick, don’t live that the guy we wanted wentba pick before us, I would of been calling to get up to 48-50 once we knew Thomas was attainable.
On that note, big, mobile rhd are always welcome and being OA means he can come to the AHL quicker and has had a free year of development.

he definitely seems like a mixed bag, but you can't argue with his numbers. hopefully he turns out
Durzi's a decent pick and can go straight into the AHL.
But... the Leafs also had an eye on him last year, correctly identifying that his 1.8SH% wasn't sustainable. They took Gordeev, McGregor, and O'Connell instead.
That, above all, is what's frustrating about this selection.

Seem like a pretty interesting pick, but I wonder what they considered separated him from Addison who went next.

I admit I preferred Addison. But I am not mad about adding a RHD.
As another poster said, we would be extremely pleased if our 2nd rounder from last year was tracking like him. And getting him a year later means he's a year quicker to help the Leafs. That's not a bad thing considering our current RHD issues.
If things go right he should push for a spot for the 2019-2020 season.
