Rasmus_ Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 ###### you Arizona!!!!!!!! My exact thoughts LGR. That's just very disappointing. Quote
Rasmus_ Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Cliff Pu....that's a value selection, but an odd pick after the last two picks. Hmm, I'm guessing they're D has been taken up to this point. Quote
Rasmus_ Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 The Sabres ###### up. Pu, does some things right, I wouldn't fault the selection. But, you have to wonder.... Quote
3putt Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 This draft will be the measuring stick for Murray and co. They had a board that differed significantly from a lot of mainstream pundits and sites. They must feel really comfortable with the d pipeline in place. Time will tell. Quote
French Collection Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 I was hoping for Dineen, Zona took him 1 pick before us. Damn! Quote
3putt Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Greenway went one after and I like his upside. Quote
Rasmus_ Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Greenway went one after and I like his upside. Yeah I looked at him just a second ago before the Pu pick. He seems pretty solid. Quote
pi2000 Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Thr chances of any of these guys outside the first round ever playing in the NHL is slim at best. I look at these picks as restocking Roch, they need help at F down there. Quote
SarasotaSabre Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Dave Reid (NHLN) says Pu will be in the NHL sooner rather than later......we'll see Quote
Huckleberry Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Ty ronning is still out there, bit surprising for someone who tested well at certain areas in the combine. Could be a good late pick up. #83 Wouter peeters, Blackhawks. Wow a Belgian player drafted, must be a first ? Goalie from Salzburg apparently. Quote

jahnyc Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Not much to be excited about in the near term. Surprised that many of the draft picks are relatively small. I thought we were trying to build a line-up with size and speed. Maybe speed is trumping size at this point. Quote

Huckleberry Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Cool. I think it is a first. http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=241698 Going to keep my eye on him, playing for Jokerit in finland next year. Quote

Taro T Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 Ronning just went to Rags w/ pick #201. Quote
Huckleberry Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) Junior Jokerit, right? Does Belgium have a domestic league? We got a BeNE league now. Belgium and Netherlands have one league again - Been trying that with many sports ( womens football, volleyball, basketball all looking into doing it, or have done it in some form already.) Happened before in the 90's I think, but back then our facilities weren't so good and they split up. https://www.rbihf.be/en/league/bene Hmm seems to be a national league besides that as well, don't know the format of this will have to look into it.

3putt Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 No picks used on goalies this year. With all those picks I thought they would take a chance on someone, even if it was a down draft for goalies. Quote
inkman Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 No picks used on goalies this year. With all those picks I thought they would take a chance on someone, even if it was a down draft for goalies. With Lehner, Ullmark, Peterson and Kasdorf in the system; I see no pressing need for goalies. Quote
3putt Posted June 25, 2016 Report Posted June 25, 2016 With Lehner, Ullmark, Peterson and Kasdorf in the system; I see no pressing need for goalies. I didn't see a pressing need for late round d either. But having a bunch of goalies at different stages of development seems prudent if for no other reason than they are so hard to project. Strength in numbers. I am not complaining just thought taking one would have been a reasonable investment. Quote
