I agree. As someone who scouts a ton of OHL, the draft is arguably my favorite hockey event of the year.

Great day for Calgary.
Lots of picks.... Start the rebuild....

Who knows.... One or two may get moved for some decent players as well.

Should be a fun draft

Exactly. If they keep the picks and draft some high end prospects, great. If they move them for good, young players like Seguin, great.

Just don't do anything stupid.

As you said, it should be a fun day for everyone.

Would you move Baertshi + 6 + 28 for Seguin?

Two picks... Probably. Possible elite number 1 center.
Need Sven... Wouldn't move him

That is a little much. Gaudreau, with those picks would be more appropriate, IMO. That still might be a bit much, too.

I could understand Gaudreau and the picks, though.

I hope they keep the picks. Feaster seems to be trying too hard to make something happen. They need to be patient and build more depth and develop their own players.

Too bad the Flames generally favor WHL.

The Matt Read rumors bother me a little bit, but I don't know too much about him. Is anyone familiar with him?

He's a good two-way player. Capable of scoring 20-25 per year. Has pretty much reached his full potential.
