I was lucky enough to see him play live this year.

Idk if its on youtube, but one of the goals he scored this year was absolutely insane. Highlight reel stuff.

Apparently the new rule is all Leafs top prospects must blow out their knees driving hard to the net.

Could be worse; they could have asked for a Mark Howe injury to show their commitment.

It'll be on NHL network. But believe me. You're best not to watch it. Unless you enjoy Button talk about kids on his list that will never play a series in the NHL and have in depth interviews with them about the times they were growing up.

No but he's clearly in the late stages of the blue and white disease.

He was happy to sacrifice his own son

For once I am not going to read any comments as I am sure there are trolls bashing the pick. Along with uneducated Leaf fans saying; great they didn't pick a forward.

If you watch this kid play he is dynamic and I like the pick very much. Actually much more than Murray going #2. Murray is either NHL ready or close to it, but I do not like when defensive Dmen are taking so high..... Please see L.Schenn as an example (check out the D that went in the first round, we picked the wrong one).

I am so glad they didn't pick Forsberg, he dropped for a reason. He has a potential to be a scorer but not a lock, so he is just a big body. Great value for Washington though at 11.

Either way, it was a decent draft with a few trades and the blockbuster early. Can't complain.

Leafs will have great D in 3-4 years.
