Hopefully Mika and Fox don't get injured in the 4 nation series, causing our season to tank.
Great pick
I love the pick…a big, physical Dman…plus…sounds like Toronto with the pick after us wanted EJ too!
This is a terrible pick I'm sorry. Andrew Basha was the clear cut choice here. We have drafted and loaded up on young defenseman. I won't count fox but
Miller, Schneider, Jones, Robertson.
Othman is our true #1proapect and he is getting called up right now. Our forward core is aging and needs some youth. Our bottom 6 this year has been for the best evaluation decent. Not going to win the cup being decent.
This reminds me of Dylan MacIlrath pick. Pretty sure drafting a top 2 all defnsemen in the first round is a huge bust.
Awesome selection
Sounds like Keandre Miller clone. 39th ranked skater picked 30th. Last thing we needed is another D man that doesnt hit or punish Forwards in slot. Horrible pick. Unfortunately Carter Yemanchuk was gone but please take a tough hard hitting D man.
Why haven't you gotten a good mic setup yet? How many episodes on are we now, at this point invest in the broadcast and production. Your mic is picking up the highs and making you sound really irritating.
I’m still pissed that we lost to the panthers.
I'm just glad the Devils drafted a new punching bag for Rempe!
Draft bust.
We need a punishing D man
Another poke check specialist. 180lbs? Total lightweight.
If this guy wants to be the next K’andre Miller than the New York Rangers are in trouble.
Seems like a Miller clone with less offense and more defense. He will probably end up being a super solid 2nd pair defenseman. Good but not exactly exciting for a first round pick.
