GDT: Official 2014 NHL Draft Thread

[YNWABoston]

Can't complain about that.. needed Wingers, especially ones that can skate.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Awesome. See you in seven years.

 

[TinyRivers]

I was just making a joke about him not getting the GM job.

Oh yeah, got that there too, but Pierre just irks me in general...

 

[Jorah Marshmont]

Cehlarik-Krejci-Pastrnak. Good ole Czechoslavakian boys.

 

[Gator Mike]

Pastrnak is a perfectly acceptable pick.

 

[Bruwinz37]

Would have preferred Barbashev but the write ups on this kid are good.

Will he play in SEL next year?

 

[acr*]

Damn it.

 

[Gee Wally]

What that guy say in the NBA draft last night?

Oh yeah, 'he's two years from being two years away'.

 

[Ratty]

Cehlarik-Krejci-Pastrnak. Good ole Czechoslavakian boys.

Only Czechs here.

 

[Dellstrom]

Only Czechs here.

Cehlarik is Slovakian

 

[Urgi]

Would have preferred Barbashev but the write ups on this kid are good.

Will he play in SEL next year?

Nope, he is playing in Södertälje. My hometeam, he is supposed to play with us next season aswell as we are making a push to get promoted to SEL, we will have a rly good team and pastrnak will be one of our goto players

 

[Mione134]

So how are we feeling about Pastrnak? Good? Bad?

 

[DKH]

Red Line loves - great review ; had a star thru the reviews, love it

 

[Ratty]

Cehlarik is Slovakian

Good to see them re-united.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Jesus, get on with it

 

[Bruins1726]

Great, now I have to hate Scherbak

David Pastrnak's Player Profile
Climbing the ranks quickly, David Pastrnak has been flashing his exciting offensive skillset at every level, most recently at the World Junior Championships. Using quick agile cuts and dazzling puck skills, Pastrnak attacks quickly often making defenders look foolish along the way. He hounds pucks in an unrelenting way and doesn’t steer away from traffic but his underdeveloped frame can hold him back occasionally in puck battles. The young Czech forward has been fantastic in Allsvenskan professional action and he currently leads his men’s team in scoring as a 17-year-old.

[Future Considerations]

Pasternak is a flashy, electrifying offensive talent with gifted hands and shiftiness in his feet. He also has a bullet shot and is a very dangerous finisher. He uses quickness and good lateral elusiveness to avoid bigger opponents. (August 2013)

 

[bigbadbruins7]

Like the pick. Some good skill into the system and should have some time fill out and develop his overall game

 

[Dellstrom]

He's taller than 5'10!

 

[Bruinator]

His injury this year probably made him slide to us. Could be a real steal.

 

[trenton1]

Pastrnak is a great pick.

 

[TinyRivers]

His rankings look real good. Scoutung report anyone?

All I have is;

comparison to Gustav Nyqvist and Justin Williams,
and he is a "dynamic point producer" ala THN

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

...

Could have been worse.

Not terribly excited about Pastrnak though.

 

[YNWABoston]

Bergevin wrote a little comedy routing. ****
