Brandon should have gone top 5; he's a lock for top 5 IRL... and is the most rounded dman in the draft... insanity that he's falling (even if you have some personal question marks...ask yourself.... are you that much better then EVERY scout)

dunno how you say "IMO the topped ranked dman" ... he could be the best IYO, or the topped ranked according to central scouting... but

OMG Nick you took Fowler who ACCORDING TO SCOUTS is the worst of the big three...So don't go calling out Billy and myself for our opinons...

Gormley is regarded by several scouts as the best of the three, he is the best skater, has the hardest shot, has the best IQ and makes the game look easy. He doesn't make flashy plays, he makes the safe and intelligent play more often than not, and just makes the game look easy. It is simply retarded to argue against him being considered the best of three, is it a lock? No, is is the consensus opinon? No, but it is a valid opinion nonetheless...It is not hard to understand why myself, and Billy, as well as many oher scouts feel this way.

I picked him because he's a Maritimer. :D oh and he will likely be a franchise D-man for the Islanders...

But really i was hoping to get Nino. I did not want anything to do with Gudbranson, so I am kinda happy that Gormley fell to me but I sure as hell would like to have another pick somewhere in the range of 10-18.

kareem... i think u need to read what i commented on.

" I MY OPINION HE'S TOP RANKED" --->>> that doesn't make sense... either he's top ranked, or in your opinion he's the top dman...


dude, i was saying gormley SHOULD have gone top 5... and that it was purely opinion between the top 3 dmen.

and ye, fowler is the better skater w/o question; and Gudbranson has the hardest shot (amongst the top 3, Faulk has the hardest shot in draft).

imo none of the big 3 defencemen are franchise defencemen

Kulikov would go top 5 in this draft

I gotta back Nick up on the Gormely thing. He sent me this before anyone was discussing it.

just a quick honest comment.
pick Gormley and laugh; it makes no sense for him to fall... he's a virtual lock for top 5 real life... the complete Dman... & its not like you have the most name-filled blue-line ;)

He'd go 3, imo Hall and Seguin are better.

Well i guess the words "franchise Defenseman need to be clarified" It may be tossed around too loosely. When i think Franchise defenseman I think of Pronger, Doughty, Keith, Chara, Lidstrom, Nieds etc. And most recently I personally feel that Meyers is and will be a franchise d-man. Were any of these players forecasted as franchise d-men? What is the main difference between a #1 d-man and a franchise D-man?
