If Kennedy could get a 2nd, i'm sure Phaneuf could get the Leafs a mid 1st round pick.

Why not high?

If you're under 5'11 you need to have a lot more than just kick-ass junior teammates in order to justify spending a good pick on you and giving you a shot in this league

Oops I was scanning and for some reason thought we were talking Domi still.

The 67's were dirt this year. He's probably gonna be a decent player someday

Try 4 first rounders. What a ridiculous overpayment for Kennedy.

- MapleLeafsFTW


Before we got Bernier I thought maybe Fucale would have been a good pick.

Morin's not necessarily a bad idea but he probably won't be available.

Not too sure who to be honest.

I agree, but he kind of reminds me of Colborne a bit, but a better skater and better hands. I'd say his ceiling is a Bergeron type player.

I know, that was my first thought. And while I found the tweet's target of Dion funny, there was a fair grain of truth in what he was saying. Dion on his own should get around the 10 spot depending on how badly a team wants him.

Based on what I've seen from Colborne in the pros I have a pretty good opinion of him that he'll be a decent 2nd line centre one day.

He didn't look lost out there for Toronto

Could be, his skating has really improved. I'd be more comfortable if he changed his game to be a good checking center.

Is it a multi-player game, so that someone else can shoot from the grassy knoll?

Skating has improved, indeed.

I think learning to play a bit of a checking role is what he's going to have to do if he wants to be a second-line centre.

He made it far on offensive ability and that fact that his size is there.

Skating was worked on, and his point totals in the AHL were great until he had a wrist injury, so it really comes down to coaching.

When RC looks at what he has down the middle, he probably is pinning a lot of hope that he can turn Colborne into the guy he needs him to be if Nonis can't find someone similar to be that kinda guy

Love how Bettman walked out to the red backdrop and all we saw was his silhouette.

Honestly expected Satan himself to appear and give the Devils the no. 1 pick

Hahah if I didn't hate him so much I'd feel bad for Bettman
