Quite frankly Bernhardt is the only one that matters and he will be signed (they have 2 years)

Not sure if Berhardt gets signed. Have seen him play for DIF and I agree with the assessments that he has "AHL feet."

They have really done well for themselves in this draft. A few years from now when they are good again, they will be pointing to this draft as the day the franchise righted itself.

Wow we might be able to land a pretty decent player here with or 50th pick. This draft is all over the place.

Further illustrating the wisdom of why you don't just throw around high draft picks in trades for players at the TDL.

Hopefully we can pick up some more 2nd and 3rd round picks. Here are some players I'm interested in the 2nd round that could fall to us: (No particular order)

Albin Eriksson - lw/rw
Jakub Lauko - lw
Jesse Ylonen - rw
Adam Ginning - d

- dubc55




Nice pick. Our defense is getting pretty scary.

Yeah, I am too.

I see the criticism on twitter and I think it's kind of facile analysis that just because he's considered a "stay at home" defenseman that the player doesn't have upside. He could develop more offensive skills.

He's 18 and playing well against older players in the SHL.
