It's ok. I watched Juolevi closely at Mem Cup he will be a stud for us. The knock on Tkachuk is that he has skating issues…maybe it was on Benning's mind. But I'm ok with a Dman sorely needed.
- LordHumungous

Well Benning stuck to his word about picking a Dman. He wouldn't pick Juolevi if he didn't think he had a chance to be a #1. I'm glad we have a high profile Dman finally and can shift our focus next year to forwards where there will be more choices available

YUP.

Everybody relax.

Passing on Tkachuk says I'm all in on Lucic.

Now lets hope we move Hansen and maybe some other pieces and try to trade to get Jost or Brown in the 10-15 range.

If we sign stamkos, Lucic, Brouwer and Erikksson I'll forgive Benning for not taking Tkachuk.

Frig, just landed in Calgary, stuck on plane because of lightning, connecting flight in 5 mins not going to make it...

What's the general thought on the pick?

What you would expect.
The circle jerks are fine with it.
The drama queens are happy they used the waterproof mascara today.

True we have plenty of forwards right now and I am not a fan of BPA (to a point) so this is ok. Filling needs.

The general consensus when I was working Mem Cup was that EDM was looking HARD at Juolevi. But when Dubois goes third it changes the structure and strategy of the draft. EDM can't pass on Pool-jarvi so IMO I think we got lucky getting Juolevi.

Cannot believe Buffalo passed on Sergachev. We should trade for a pick 9-13

i'm far from a kool aid drinker but i'll accept benning's pick here.

he said one of the guys he had at 5 could be a #1d. i'll give him the benefit of the doubt based on his drafting. i'm excited b/c this was a true rebuilding pick.

- RealityChecker


I much prefer this pick to Tkachuk, although i'm probably in the minority.

Shocked with this one too. They need dmen more than any team in the league. At least the oilers have guys on the left side
