2015 Draft Discussion

The price on the pick from me is Girgesons so good luck to all interested

Come on dude, I said publicly I would add from my side for the right player. You also offered Andreoff who sucks if we're gonna play this game now.

This is a shocking development

[Matthew]

Sorry guys, i figured the 6 picks in front of me would take all day, and i was worked an 11 hour shift. I'll try and make the pick within an hour after i look at my lists, cuz im not really even sure who has been taken yet. If you want it, make offers now, or you can always just pm me who you think is the best prospect left on the board to help me cuz im clueless at the draft.

[Lee]

I offer David Jones.

[Matthew]

No thanks.

[Matthew]

Who's better: Jordan Greenway or Christian Fischer?

[Shoalzie]

If only someone posted links for information about prospects...

[Matthew]

I couldnt find the links. And +, I think you are smarter than those guys, shoalzie.

[Shoalzie]

I was referring to the draft guides I posted.

(Greenway is a solid choice)

[Matthew]

Who are they? I need help drafting.

Well I am far from a scout, but I actually watch a awful lot of Jr hockey. I love the NHl, but prefer watching Jr. Most of the guys I love who are left, are guys who I have seen play a few times. There are many very skilled guys, but are lazy. Example Pavel Zacha is a super skilled player, who I really like watching live, but he is very lazy. Type of player who drives me nuts, he is so talented one shift, and then disappears the next 4. Watched him live twice now and noticed the same thing both games. Now he is young, and depending on coaching and his attitude, that could all change, but I personally would not draft him. I love guys like Travis Konecny who have skill and never take a shift off.

I remember watching Phil Kessel live in a WJC pre-season game in Victoria the winter before he was drafted and when he had been projected as like a top 3 pick, and being astonished by how much he would glide around the ice. He looked like the laziest player in the world to me.

I don't think he has the best upside, but i dont know which forwards left do. I'm hoping he will turn out as a power forward, so maybe he will be a late bloomer.

Nice value pick by cliff there I have Bittner as a 1st rounder

Yuck.

[Matthew]

How do i get fantrax to add jordan greenway into the system?

[Monk]

Nice value pick by cliff there I have Bittner as a 1st rounder

Yuck.

Yea, if you like lazy big fuckers that don't use their size, it's a great pick.. if I'm cliff I trade bittner soon as he is drafted because he will most likely go in the mid first round, he is basically a Zack kassian clone. Who is himself an infuriating player

There are quite a few left with good upside. Think you nailed Greenway though in that his upside is probably limited. Maybe he develops into a 3rd line power forward.

Lol. Damn luke

Hi

[CasperX22]

Lol. Damn luke

Hi

He's pretty much spot on. NHL and their size fetish.

[Matthew]

to be fair, Kassian is quite talented. He just hasnt been able to put it all together yet.

[CasperX22]

to be fair, Kassian is quite talented. He just hasnt been able to put it all together yet.

Lack of heart, effort, and IQ will do that.

[CasperX22]

BTW, love the Beauvillier pick by Florida sandwiched inbetween the 2 Arizona picks. Oneof the most underrated players I feel in this draft. I have a feeling Cliffy may wind up regretting that one.

[kyuss]

nice easy pick Scott. Probably going on first day of the draft..
