Funny, I don't follow junior hockey that much but I share your sentiments exactly when it comes to our 2020 picks.I gave it a C+. In my eyes we got two late first round picks with Guhle and Mysak. I am very excited about the Mysak pick. That's an A+ pick in my book. Guhle wasn't my guy, wasn't on my list for 16. I would have preferred Reichel and about 10 other guys to him. But he has some very nice traits: excellent skater, and he plays the game aggressively. My view is that he could turn out to be a player that you'd be pretty happy to have on your team, but not the kind of player you dream of drafting.
Biondi, Farrel and Gordin have some potential, but by in large it was a pretty disappointing night. Tuch is not a very talented player. Dobes is a goalie, and therefore worthless. Jack Smith, who the f*** asked for him?
Have you heard his interview before draft?
Because it's a myth that he has a knack for drafting d-men. Counting only 16 of his drafts he has drafted how many stud d-men? Of course the last two years look like he has struck gold but that may be only because we haven't had enough time to see them burn out.If Timmins has a knack for drafting D, why don't we draft and develop more of them and trade some of them for forward help? I don't think that this is rocket science?

Forget the busts I entered them just for laughs. In 16 drafts he picked three stud d-men. That's not the record of a d-men expert.To be fair, I'm sure we can do that kind of list for every scout in the league. A vast majority of players picked are busts.

ahhahaha
That because we had even less luck with FW... so it seem we only hit on D.Because it's a myth that he has a knack for drafting d-men.

... who else ? that is very thin over a 17 year period with TT at the helm of scouting. Sergachev was an easy pick to do.
I laughed at that one, too.
Two things I really love about both Biondi and Gordin, they're big bodies who are real good skaters. They're both mobile. And also, both have a nose for the net. Can't wait to see Biondi on the next level in NCAA. And I also hope Gordin doesn't spend too much time in the MHL.
Both need to work alot on their skating, but arent hopeless... If they can improve it to the point its not a weakness at the NHL level, you have there 2 guys with very high upside, I agree...
Gordin has amazing shooting skills, has great hands and good vision, but more I watch him, more I think his skating is brutal... Well, I would say he plays at a very slow pace, thats for sure...I've been burned by tying too much hope to long shot late rounders. I'm slowly learning my lesson.
THAT being said! lol. Gordin, Biondi and Farell actually look like they have upside. Haven't seen enough of Biondi but I like what I'm hearing. I think Farell has a legit shot. He seems like the Gallagher pick.
Gordin's upside looks great but I don't have much hope there. I don't categorically hate outlandish cellies but that mic drop thing just screamed bust to me lol. Still I love that kind of pick in the 6th round.
Is this your channel?

Not our prospect, but it's impressive what Yegor Chinakhov has been doing so far in the KHL.
Maybe Columbus actually knew what they were doing.
Yeah, I personally don't like judging picks when I'm not familiar with the player, so I was probably tougher on the Guhle pick than I was on the Chinakhov pick, though I *understood* the Guhle pick a lot better.yeah I got the feeling it was a PLD like move.
