Great - lots of talent

 

[AddMan3001]

YES! That should help quiet some of the complaints. Great pick with the last 2nd rounder.

[Andrew Mack]

Bracco has great confidence with the puck and he’s looking to make plays and break defences when he has it. He can make pinpoint passes in traffic and through sticks and skates. He could shoot more and become a greater threat in that regard. He has good agility but improving his explosiveness quickness would make him that much more dynamic.

Comparables: Mats Zuccarello

TSN Rank #53

There is your high risk, high reward pick. Pronman had him mid-1st round. This is the "skill" draft.

 

[Cor]

YES!

LOVE THIS KID. WOOOOOOO

This kid is unreal. Had him ranked in the mid-1st round.

****ing Eh. Thank You Hunter

 

[ULF_55]

I like it.

I guess his intangibles checked out okay!

 

[Amadeus]

Good pick!!

 

[ViewsFromThe6ix]

Great job, great pick.

 

[Bernier the Boats]

Amazing pick with Bracco. Had him 22, so skilled. Great draft so far.

 

[SprDaVE]

Great value pick. Tons of skill. Will have lot's of time to develop. The kind of value pick that's huge for us.

Really can't complain here.

 

[LeafGrief]

Great pickup at #61. Really makes the trade down look good.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Loads of skill, boom/bust type pick.

Hunter and co. sure aren't afraid of the smaller guys

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Great pick.

 

[Coaches Coroner]

Very happy with this pick. Small but has tons of skill, definitely worth the risk at this point in the draft with 2 more picks coming up soon.

Nice pick!

 

[Green Snow Storm]

Absolutely loving this Draft for us so far.

 

[Cor]

We are having a great draft!

 

[91Stammer*]

Finally got something valueable for today. Huh

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Very good pick, talented kid.

It was either him or Pilon for me at 61.

On one of my first wants lists on the draft.

Small and skilled again.

 

[AddMan3001]

Future Considerations had him ranked 22nd, and had him going 26th in their mock draft (to Montreal).

Dropped a bit due to size issues, but in the new NHL size isn't the be-all and end-all that it once was. Total skill guy that could make a lot of teams look very foolish in a few years.

 

[Schenn]

Dare I say Jeremy Hockey?

 

[HarryLime]

The imp!!!

 

[Stand Witness]

Was considering him at 24, obviously I am excited.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

We are having a great draft!

We will know in 3 years. Lets keep it in check here.
