2019 NHL Draft Thread

When your team is is good, the draft usually sucks. You either have a late pick or no pick.

It's a bit of that but also... teams used to drop massive trades during the draft, it was pretty fun. Remember Carter and Richards from Philly in the same draft?

There were 19 trades that day. We've got one - a straight picks swap.
 
Habs prospect pool looking good.


Poehling
Caufield
Kotkaniemi
Suzuki
Brook
Romanov


Haven’t had that much talent in prospects in ages.

Covering his mouth in case of lip readers I guess. Of no use when Jim Benning is on the phone as even if the lip reader was 1 foot away from him, they wouldn't have any idea what he's saying.:lol
 
This is the most boring draft I can remember.

Nothing to do with our not having a pick. Just totally boring.
 
What’s with teams going so off the board?

Seems like half a round worth of Bobo’s picks are still available.
 
"Does Captain Truculence approve this pick"

Burke "I do".

This is basically Biggs II.

Pre draft Biggs: .56ppg (USNDP U18)
Pre draft Beecher: .68ppg (USNDP U18)
 
Hearing reports that dubas plans on shaving his cock and balls tonight. I'm hearing that a trim isn't off the table either but we're expecting some action. Stay tuned.
 
Most dull draft in NHL history. And this morning, many "Insiders" are saying the reason they were wrong is that GMs are concerned about the cap being less than expected,
Ok, but in a few days they'll tell us multiple "Offersheets" are coming for Marner at 12+ per year. LOL.
 
Great pick by the Habs. Lots of teams above them will regret passing on Caufield. Who cares if he is 5'6, he's an elite shooter.

And what a **** up by Chicago. They'll regret that too. Could have drafted a perfect Toews or Keith replacement but went for a guy that can't skate and doesn't work hard because he is 6'4.

Also love the Seider pick. That guy is good. There are no comparables for him coming out of Germany, and he looked good at the World Championships playing against NHLers as an 18 year old dman. He wasn't my 2nd ranked dman, but that wasn't much of a reach for me. Much better player than Broberg, who has no hockey IQ IMO.
