I now have a wonderful campfire going using about $4000. Worth of Canuck paraphernalia as Firestarter.

Little excessive no? I wanted Glass as much as the next guy but once i calmed down i realized Pettersson had a better draft year then, both sedins, filip and peter forsberg, backstrom, zetterberg, Naslund. Once Petterson puts on 25-30 pounds hell be solid

Benning was asked about Kostn and he admitted the Tryamkin situation soured him a bit

With you there. Benning claims to be filling needs and while I was ok with the OJ pick passing on a 200lb centre that we actually need for another Swede is a bit of a head-scratcher….but we'll see how he turns out I guess.

It was a good draft, solid pick. read the reviews, and then check the circumstances on how the draft went down, then go into hysteria...
- Makita


Not usually one to be hysterical, but I have had enough of this. I expect the same old same old boring pansy ass hockey with what these idiots are building.
Hope they pick Sean dhooghe at 33.
Also I have been following most of these players all season including this pick, not what I consider a top 5 pick. I wouldn't consider him a top 10 either.
30 plus years of following the draft and never been more disappointed in the last 3 of 4 drafts.

I hear your concerns. We are a soft team now and forever. But skill has to be the priority in the first round.

No. They are not Swedish and they are over 6' for forwards that is not allowed.

I liked Glass too but Elias has the better upside and is flashy good. He's same height as Glass and only 10lbs lighter. So pretty sure he can add muscle. Maybe he plays at 195lbs or so and and is quicker or explosive with more leg strength. That can be achieved with training. Talent can't. He's been described with having highlight reel worthy moves.
