So who's getting excited for the U18 draft? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
To be a smartass....I bet the U18 players that get drafted....but the boards seem pretty quiet on the topicSo who's getting excited for the U18 draft? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Hope nobody takes my post to be critical of the kids in this draft. The lack of mention of the U18 was precisely why I made the thread.To be a smartass....I bet the U18 players that get drafted....but the boards seem pretty quiet on the topic
Ultimately it can also be an opportunity to honour your minor hockey system and draft local players.Everyone takes 2, if you select a goalie you can take 3
Yup .. if the NHL misses players when selecting basically fully grown men then the OHL is surely overlooking kids the first time around when they’re 15/16!Almost all of the players selected are 2006 birth year and, therefore, they were bypassed last April. Sometimes a player needs extra time to grow and learn. It will be a tough road for them, but I wish them the best.
That’s exactly what North Bay did, but both selected have a chance to make the roster that’s going to potentially be a little thin up front next season.Ultimately it can also be an opportunity to honour your minor hockey system and draft local players.
Wolves in a similar situation, I believe they've had at least one pick on the roster every year since the U18 draft has started.The Spirit had 3 on their roster this year...Lincoln Moore, Calem Mangone and Ian Phillips. They also dressed a 4th last year in Charlie Fink but he did not make the squad this year and went a different route.
This draft is a bit more of shot in the dark, in the whole grand scheme of development.So who's getting excited for the U18 draft? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
Yeah those two or Anson Thornton.Who's the best player that's come out of the U18 draft - Gavin White or Samuel Mayer would be my guess?
With an HM to Calem MangoneYeah those two or Anson Thornton.
yeah , has to be White per his recent NHL contract .Who's the best player that's come out of the U18 draft - Gavin White or Samuel Mayer would be my guess?
