It’s fun watching you year after year ignore the impact of physicality in the game of hockey.
#1 Carter Bear: Great pick. Hard to miss with this guy. Wanted Eklund or Bear.
#2 Eddie Genborg: Yzerman got a hard on watching the Florida Panthers and reached. Note: No Cameron Schmidt yet.
#3 Michael Pradel: No complaints. Could pan out well and its a goalie so roll the dice because you can draft Cameron Schmidt with the next pick you have.
#3 YZERMAN CHOKES: Trades pick to CBJ, does not draft Cameron Schmidt. Yzerman is a size queen.
#3 Cameron Schmidt Drafted by 2x GM OF THE YEAR JIM NILL. THIS IS GOING TO STING IN A FEW YEARS.
#4 Soloman: Good pick.
#4 Svrcek: Great pick. Good to hear your take on him ranking him above Carter Bear! wow
#5-#7: Solid picks
Are the flames the last team?
Who do you take at #13? Carter Bear or Victor Eklund? Or someone else?
Really liked the Svrcek pick value wise. Thought they could have taken an upside gamble on Cameron Schmidt with one of the third round picks (I know they traded one but originally). Would like to see Svrcek hit though. Hope we got a steal there when we look back at this draft.
Tampa soon please😁
Made an account just to subscribe 🤙🏼, great evaluations
Every time you've talked about the Wings in your other videos, you've shown that your knowledge is VERY shallow. So I start this video to give you the benefit of the doubt and within ten seconds you list eight players on the screen and say that they drafted seven guys. Come on, man. Shape up. This is embarrassing.
