Not surprised to see Veleno falling.

Ahead of Dahlin?

I can't believe I'm going to come to the defense of MJL..... (insert puking emoji)... but Simmonds is my "favorite" player in the NHL, doesn't mean he's the "Best" player in the NHL.

O'Brien was my favorite player in the draft.

For announcers to be openly flaming this kid.....I can't imagine what war atrocity he must have committed. You'd think he killed a guy.

Character matters, but yeah. At some point, you have to say you are evaluating kids and understand that not all of them are NHL robots yet

I just wish the Flyers had a higher 2nd, there could be a lot of value there.

Surprised they didn’t take Miller with the stated need for dmen. They must really love O’Brien.

Miller seems like a real good kid, very well spoken and humble. I was thinking to myself it's gonna be a shame I have to (frank)ing hate him for the next 8 years or however long

Lundestrom is such a Ducks pick. They love their Swedes.

funny when they interviewed Hex and asked about D, his response "well we have 7 more picks" he was actually a little smug about it. He is a draft whore
