Thank you, sweet rabbit
Fletcher looks like he's starving and just drafted a T-Bone steak...

I'm not even going to pretend I know anything about this kid.
Wouldn't have minded Bowey or Heatherington but at least he's a D man and doesn't seem like too much of a reach.....works for me.

I like a defensemen in the 2nd. Other than that there's nothing I'm high on. Need some skilled offensive players in this organization. We'll see how he does.

Yes, the Wild needed more non-physical defensemen. He's not going to be Brodin otherwise he would've been drafted in the 1st round. The Wild have drafted far too many of these finesse, non-physical stay at home types IMO. Its time to draft some anger for the blueline. This was a great opportunity to do just that and they missed it.

I wanted Santini, but stupid New Jersey had to take him before us. Just like in 2010 when I wanted Merrill. Stupid New Jersey.

"He has an affinity
for contact, and as such goes for big hits from time to time. He usually picks his spots well
but does sometimes take himself out of the play"

Well, good thing he is not a finesse type of defenseman then. Plays a honest, all-round game.

Love it when people who know nothing about a prospect, complain about the shortcomings of the prospect that they know nothing about

Not necessarily. If you draft a CHL guy, you have to sign him in 2. If you draft a guy in in college or even before that, you got 4-5 years.
How long you have to sign a guy has nothing to do with how long it will take a player to be ready for the NHL.
Wrong again. Shocking. The sooner they are ready for the AHL the better for the Wild, but again where they are drafted from makes no difference. Medvec could've went straight to the AHL from the draft if the Wild wanted him to. If anything, drafting a guy from the CHL limits the ability for prospects to progress. ie- Dumba
The CHL and the NCAA are two completely different animals on development. You look at Justin Schultz and Marco Scandella.
Could have but it would have destroyed his development. Medvec was really, really green at 18.
Not necessarily. Dumba's lack of progression is hampered by the team he plays for and the coach. Getting him into the AHL might be better for him.
Not really sure how to respond to this.
Thanks for proving my point that you were wrong I guess
