    >Quick note on the Seattle Kraken taking Eduard Sale from HC Kometa Brno.

    >Kraken amateur scouting director Robert Kron either played or personally knows everyone who runs a team in Czechia and Slovakia.

    >Those connections helped the Canes land Martin Necas.

    Solid pick but it felt like a trade was there for immediate value with the implied value on the board with a couple touted picks falling.

  3. Ttvbenskionig

    No way she asked growing up did you watch any kraken

    Probably replacement for Schwartz a few years down the line

  5. SmokinJoeBurreaux

    High upside. 20 is a weird place to pick. We’ll see. I’m optimistic

  6. Picklepucks

    He’s got a solid release but I think we’re going to take a couple years at least to develop him. Tall and slim so should target strength and conditioning. By the time he’s developed we could have a 20 plus goal winger. Just leave him on the backburner a couple years and give him what he needs to grow his game.

  7. Nice, good prospect. Decent sized winger.

  8. tonytanti

    If he plays in cv could we say they are having a Fire^bird Sale

  9. Grizz709

    Solid pick. I hospital thought he would’ve been gone by now.

  10. seattlesportsguy

    He’ll hang out and help Coachella for a little bit.

    EDUARD SALE IS THE GREATEST PLAYEROF ALL TIME

    ALL MY HOMIES LOVE EDUARD SALE

  12. Yeah this seems like a great choice! Love to see how he develops over the next few years

    I cannot believe that’s a real hockey sweater

  14. garygnu

    That’s a real uniform that exists in the real world? Did we draft a NASCAR driver?

  15. ReleaseTheKraken45

    Huge upside here. He was top 10 on a lot of prospect lists before an “inconsistent” season. Craig Button of TSN loves him, I believe he had him #7 overall.
