Ottawa didn't have a lot of picks, and without the asset-poor ones would have been even worse.
Very happy to get Cole Hutson at the end of the 1st. Was hoping for a way to snag Kiviharju, but no such luck. NOt a lot of goalie/blueline prospects so happy to add Saarinen, Fischer, Fischer, and Soini. Missed out on Vinni because I thought he was an overager but oh well.
Traded down with the NYI to add a bunch of picks next year, and grabbed a couple of forwards in Kleber, Pikkarainen, and Spellacy. I will admit I drew from a few lists, and Sandman's was one of them.
Also picked for both WAS and ARI. Dunno how happy they are, but it was a fun way to get more involved at my first draft.
