GDT: NHL Draft Weekend Part II

[NJDevs26]

Yeah I can't see them making a run at a big RW (who's even available besides Okposo who probably gets 7 years and a gillion dollars)...they'll give their boy Bennett a chance to win a spot in the top six and DSP deserves that opportunity too, though he'll likely be on the third line. This is probably close to the Opening Night RW depth chart.

i really dont think we are getting Yak, no specific reason just got that feeling.

If we were it would've been done already.

 

[StevenToddIves]

Mattson a nice risk here for Calgary. Flames putting together an outstanding draft. Tkachuk, Fox, Lindstrom, Parsons, Mattson.

He might not be traded at all with the way Charelli is working.

NJ takes Yegor Rykov

 

[HBK27]

Devils go with Yegor Rykov (D) in the 5th.

 

[RememberTheName]

Yegor Rykov is selected by the Devils

 

[AfroThunder396]

Devils taking their sweet time with these picks. Really milking the clock on every selection

 

[RememberTheName]

Max Lajoie selected one pick after

 

[Classic Devil]

Another Russian, hm?

Devils take Yegor Rykov. A re entry defenseman I'm a fan of. He was one of Russia's best defenseman at the WJC. Well rounded player.

Yeah I saw that. Does raise a few questions.

I like this pick then, if true

But how good are Russian defensemen anyway?

 

[Devils Army]

Still no Solokov?

 

[Classic Devil]

Still no Solokov?

Still no Sokolov.

 

[NJDevils17]

I actually watched Rykov during the WJC. He looked really good. I like this pick even though I love Quenneville.

 

[RememberTheName]

Still no Solokov?

Crazy, and no Quenneville as well

 

[StevenToddIves]

Yegor Rykov is selected by the Devils

very good pick. LHD, Rykov has ideal size at 6'2-200 and plays a rock solid and physical defensive game. Not an offensive stud but solid puck skills and heavy shot. Two years left on his KHL deal (St. Pete) so we won't see him for awhile, but a very solid selection in the 5th.

That being said, I still want Quenneville/Sokolov.

I have a hard time seeing either of them lasting until 162.

VAN takes candella at 140

 

[NJDevils17]

Looks like we only scouted SKA organization and the Steelheads. Must've seen Cormier when they were playing in Missasuaga. Haha.

 

[NJD1982]

Stevens moving on from the Devils organization based on this interview. Happy he has the opportunity but its a little sad to see our legends not be part of the team.
