Neither of these guys are NHL player, Chaput is what he is but Kero has his best AHL season last year + has better numbers in the AHL. One guy couldn’t crack the Canucks, the other guy couldn’t crack the Hawks. One guy has a bit more upside.

The chances of this trade becoming relevant is low.

About as much of a chance as Minivan getting to six feet

Chaput was going to be Hughes’ bodyguard

Also, I 100% expect Benning to sign a NHL caliber player who adds toughness. He said it at the TDL

I’ve noticed that it’s the shorter guys who worry the most about every player’s size.

It will be interesting to follow those two in comparison. Wise fell a lot further than many scouting sites predicted so their must be something.

I'm glad Madden can skate but just from stat watching its hard to see the offensive potential.
Gruden put up the same points as him in 25 games less and was taken in the 4th.

This draft seemed a bit odd in how teams picked.

Chase Wouters 51 pts in 72 games in Saskatoon. 3 in 5 games at u18s. Went undrafted.

The jealousy that your kind is becoming extinct in the NHL and my kind is taking over is becoming a bit much.

Topping and Steeves were 2 guys I wanted late, both undrafted.

Wanted Stastney too, Preds took him one pick after us. He’ll probably end up as a top 4 dman since the Preds drafted him

you're actually right they are taking smaller faster skilled guys.

What did Minivan mean by your kind? When’s the last time obese players were in high demand in the draft? Krutov?

Carl Wassenius who was 60ish on Canucksarmy list.

Looking at the picks per round, seemed different then previous years. Im guessing in 3-4 years time. We will see a much more fast paced euro type of game.

I’m not a big fan of CA’s list, but yeah, on paper he looks like someone who should’ve been drafted.

Ill have to check the notes but I think Thunda gets bragging rights for draft correctness this season.

I wonder who now is going to be invited to prospects camp. A lot of potential may have been skipped over.

Skinner has apparently turned down trades. Wonder to which teams?
