GDT: NHL Draft 2019 Part 4

[Lebowski]

I don't get why MB did this?

I would have liked more in exchange, but a lot of the players people seemed to like at 50 should be available at 63.

 

[G0bias]

Second round had plenty of value. What a waste of perfectly placed 2nd picks from a pure asset management perspective.

 

[Natey]

A couple Finns I really really like still around

 

[dackelljuneaubulis02]

I’m not trying to sound like a broken record, but losing 14 spots in a draft - almost half an entire round - just to pick up an additional 5th is ****ing stupid.

really really makes no sense but I'll wait and see how this draft shapes up. Still you have to think they could've gotten a higher pick than that.

 

[Hope Of Glory]

Could the slow ass Canes have any more 2nd rounders?

Jesus lol

 

[Runner77]

My knowledge is pretty thin once we get into the late second. What are some names that everyone else likes.

W3K's list, some of these guys are gone:

Vladislav Firstov, Pavel Dorofeyev, Bobby Brink, Jamieson Rees, Artemi Knyazev, Michal Teply, Matthew Robertson, Nils Hoglander, Nick Robertson, Daniil Misyul, Patrik Puistola, Mikko Kokkonen, Vladislav Kolyachonok, Yegor Afanasyev, Robert Mastrisome, Daniil Gutik

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Timmins likely has someone in mind that will be there at 64th, so why not get an extra pick.

I'm okay with that. But you'd better do better than a 5th rounder for it. I mean wtf?

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Okay... there's moving down and then there's getting ripped off.

One thing to move down. Another thing to do it for a 5th... that makes zero sense.

Its Bergevin after all , what did we expect. Taking a really bad contract to get a free first

Thats 2 complicated for him.

 

[jaffy27]

@Lebowski MB is in charge of all pick trades

And makes those trades based on info Timmins gives him

 

[Redux91]

Sure he is. Don't you think he asks Timmins opinion's when it comes to picks, depending on who's left on their list?

Should watch the draft footage from last year lol..

it looked like Bergevin just OUT of nowhere thought "f*** this lets make a nowhere pick swap trade" and timmins look is like "great..."

 

[MD thaivuN]

Probably but there is no way that Timmins did not talk to him about going down.

last year, Timmins wanted Cam Hillis with one of our 2nd rounds and MB just traded the pick and TT just looked disapointed

 

[MarkovsKnee]

I'm fine with the Struble pick.

I still hate the trade down, I'd have rather traded it for LAK's 2020 2nd rounder or something, a 3rd and a 5th is perplexing. Again, I'll trust our scouts on this.

What is our order of picks in the 5th round now? Seems like we have 4 or 5

We have 4: 126, 131, 136, 138.

 

[Youppi ki yay]

Carolina trading #59 to Minn for #73 and #99

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Could the slow ass Canes have any more 2nd rounders?

Jesus lol

I know, calisse c'est long.

 

[overlords]

I hope we turn all our 5ths into like 15 7ths and go ham

 

[Redux91]

And makes those trades based on info Timmins gives him

Again, you'd be surprised

 

[groovejuice]

It's the only explanation which would make sense. I'm thinking they value some guys alot more highly than the general consensus.

There surely are better ways to obtain an extra 5th round pick. It's ass backwards actually.

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Carolina trading #59 to Minn for #73 and #99

Lol, all these trades are pissing me off. WTF Bergevin

 

[ProspectsFanatic]

@Mrb1p must be losing his mind over Dorofeyev still on the board

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

And makes those trades based on info Timmins gives him

Again... trading down is fine.

Getting ripped off isn't.

 

[G0bias]

Better be SWINGING in the 3rd.

 

[The Real Timo]

So we all in agreement that Bergevin is a moron?

 

[Lebowski]

Could these analysts please SHUT THE f*** UP when teams are making their selections or announcements are being made. Jesus Christ that shit is aggravating.

 

[TT1]

Sure he is. Don't you think he asks Timmins opinion's when it comes to picks, depending on who's left on their list?

And makes those trades based on info Timmins gives him

Na, Timmins doesn't have much say. He gives his list to MB and MB manages the picks regardless of what Timmins wants. Player scouting is all on Timmins, pick management is all on MB.

So for example MB looks at the names on Timmins' list, if he trades back it's because he thinks we could end up with the highest ranked player on our list at #60 (or w/e we traded our pick for).

 

[Runner77]

Canes trade 59 to the Wild for 73 and 99.
