The Draft

[Tysonson3]

Hold up what! I can’t even leave to clean my room for a minute!

 

[Legionnaire11]

David Soil

 

[AintLifeGrand]

who ???

 

[Legionnaire11]

Oh what a nice pick! Exactly what we need in the pipeline!

 

[AintLifeGrand]

God dammit david

 

[hockey diva]

Ugh! Seriously!?

What a terrible pick!

 

[NoNecksCurse]

Tootoo, that you?

 

[Byrddog]

Man Poile is gonna Poile. Terrible Terrible Another hardcase.

 

[PredsV82]

Haha hes being compared to Marchand.

4 suspensions last year.

Interesting to say the least

 

[hockey diva]

Our CHL scouts are just not that great.

 

[LCPreds]

Leading into this draft it was all talk about how it was so hard to scout due to Covid, been projected to be a terrible draft, and now we’ve got a room full of experts all of a sudden. It’s just funny.

You posted the wrong one. Since vingan was the whipping boy earlier I thought you might appreciate this one (assuming it’s not already deleted):

 

[hockey diva]

No, I have not liked our CHL scouting for a while.

Wasting a first round pick on a problem child from the Q, which is not on par with the OHL or WHL, is a scouting and GM problem.

 

[Hose Pipe]

Lmao Poile just can't help himself. One step forward two steps back.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

Our next pick is now #83 overall

 

[predwings]

Man what a bad pick up and we had pinelli and chibrikov open for us to take there

 

[PredsV82]

@desmondtootoo brain is going to explode.

 

[GoldOnGold]

Don't know too much about Svechkov but he seems like a fine pick.

We'll see with L'Heureux. I don't like how many 2nd rounders we've tossed in recent years.

It's more, he takes 1-2 of the same profile player every year, and frankly, they have all basically sucked and/or not made the NHL.

With that said, this prospect has grit plus skill. Not sure what to make of him. This could be a really good selection. It could be a reach. I'm pulling for him. Power forwards are HARD to find. Sometimes, you have to take your shot.

 

[PredsV82]

Before everyone loses their minds just remember the night was considered a big success 45 minutes ago. It's not like we traded away Svechkov. Even if the Angry Apostrophe(trademark pending) doesnt work out this is still a good night.

 

[predwings]

He was set to go 40th which means we could’ve stayed where we were and got him this all around makes no sense. Poile hearing steps behind him in hallways or something

 

[BigFatCat999]

I'm just glad to see French Canadian last names I can pronounce!

 

[Enoch]

He was not going 40. Mckenzie had him at 25 and he literally gets his notes from GMs and scouts.

If you are going to take your shot, this is the time to take it. This isn't a deep draft. Power forward type of player? *Shrug*

Let's see what happens!

L'Heureux was a point per game player over the past two seasons ... edgy to say the least ... if he pans out he is just what these boards have ranted for .. a player that can score while being physical. That is a big if for the guy Craig Button had at #12 on his list down to #41 in the Atlantic's rankings, with several mock drafts putting him going to Carolina at 27.
