That'll change. Just take him at 8. Came into the Elitserien and dominated, was the best Swiss player at the U20's, best Swiss player at the U18's and one of the best overall in the tournament, playing in the WC's and looks great. Oddly enough if he had played all season he would have beaten out the Elitserien Rookie of the Year...our own Andreas Johnson

THN had good things to say about him. Only downfall is size. Played in the Jr swedish league to start, and moved up partway through the year. "Was more than just there, he contributed as an 18yr old playing against men in the elite league".

They say great hockey sense. Terrific hands, plays at a high level.

How so? You trade down to 15 or something to draft him and get like a 3rd rounder or something, is that worth losing the guy you want?
- AdamFrench



THN has him ranked 13th.

I would also add Oskar Lindblom because the Leafs did well going the SuperElit route with Andreas Johnson, so why not try again? Kid seems to have Sundin syndrome when he puts on the Swedish jersey.

"He's hard to find" One scout said


"Lot of similarities to Willie Nylander. High end skill, top end creativity and anticipation" small size only downside"

"He went up in the middle of the season and was excellent" another scout said. "he wasn't just there, he was helping the team"

Should try and grab a guy like Erskine, I'm sure the Caps wouldn't want too much to send him our way...he could replace Fraser's toughness and he lives in Kingston

Ness has always had a huge crush on Lupul and just thought Bernier was good looking.

Gonna show her this pic and she'll drop that big-nose, coke-snortin', fly honey-wheelin', GQ attention whore like a hot potato for the frenchman in two shakes of a lamb's tail.

Anahiem, Nashville and Phoenix pick (10-12) and all have 2x 2nd rounders. One of them swap 8 for thier 1st and a 2nd?? Leafs get a 2nd and move back and pick Fiala??

I don't think the Leafs would ever pick Fiala or Nylander.

I'll add Goldobin, Barbashev and maybe even Fabbri to that list.

Only if Virtanen or Ehlers/ Ritchie are gone, if not. Make the selection.

You want to get Leafs players from Walmart flyers?

You need to rethink this plan.
