Schremp had attitude issues (described how he played as Schremp hockey), skated like he crapped his hockey pants and was way on the smaller side.

I'll take people more seriously (on either side) once they see him for them self. It's the ignorant anger which I find hilarious but I welcome views, positive or negative, if they've actually seen a guy play.

Want Erne, Zhukov, Hartman at 28 pls.

EE Canucks crapped the bed this draft when they traded away they goalie of the future for a 3rd line c and forced luongo to be their guy when he was done with e franchise.

Nucks had a terrible draft.

If the Flames go off board at 22, imagine what they will do at 28

Is this kid's suit made out of rubber?

[OzSome]

Wow, the last few picks has been surprises. Most of them moved up from their ranking.

Maybe the TSN list is not the end all, be all?

i don't cheer for MTL or ANA... I wouldnt be upset if they drafted someone from the ECHL.

[bucksmasher]

OK everyone, deep breath and then..........who?

[CalgaryFan1988]

I want a RW or at least a right handed shooter. We need some in the depth charts.

That's why I'm hoping for Hartman, preferably Zykov. Realistically a trade.

[Pagal4321]

I bet it's Fucale and CP melts down.

[Dx54]

Feaster is gonna draft Fucale. Just wait for it.

Poirier has incredible wheels. That is NHL speed without a doubt. Has a good shot too. Seems more of a finisher than anything. Interesting pick to be sure. Still out of left field and surprising, but he's definitely got two things the Flames need; size and speed!

come on Seguin!

[TheBrunk]

Really does seem like the players from 20-40 being really close seems to be true.

I don't know. I picked the final in five games to the Hawks and said Jones and the Russian would slip. I still got it.

people are talking about pick value, not the pick itself.

I had the same initial reaction, but if we really had Poirier rated highly, I think you take him when you can instead of trying to get cute and hoping that he'll be there 6 picks later.

Four of the past six picks have been a little "off the board." At this point, you just try to get your guy and don't try to guess where other people have them ranked.

[Diemenz]

Dano was ranked 53, Columbus is a joke of a franchise, fire the GM, shoot the coaches.

Pittsburghs first round >>> Columbus's first round

Could the servers handle a Fulcale pick?

It's the overreaction that is silly.

[Frank MetaMusil]

Cmon Feaster, get Fucale and crash the server!
