Not a huge fan of this pick, prefer goalies to be taken later. I was in for Demko but not familiar with him as all.

[Roof-Daddy]

Nucks take Demko

[mrdonkey]

Really not liking that pick considering who was available. Goalies are too much of a risk to take that high.

[Dorkmaster]

Heard that Mason McDonald was one of the top goaltenders in the draft. Forget which draft guide had him as their #1 goaltender for the draft.

Surprised that we went goalie but we'll see how it turns out.

[Poe969]

We have decent goalie depth and no depth on D. Why take a goalie?

[Completely]

Mckeown >< did want

[Matty81]

I think he was picked largely on the u-18s because he only played 29 games this season and didn't look great (albeit behind two bad teams).

Sub .900 save percentage in those 29 games

Canucks take Demko. I think we'll be talking about this for a while.

I think that the Flames staff would be very, very familiar with a Boston College goalie. If they didn't take him, I'd guess there is a pretty good reason.

[TheBrunk]

McKeown, Dougherty, Glover. Hope we get one at 54

[The Swedish Flame]

I am confused.

[MrMastodonFarm]

Demko goes to the Canucks. He's the guy I wanted in this round, so we'll see how our guy plays out. Good twist to this round.

Or it's the overexposure thing.

[Da_Chief]

On Demko, there are rumors he will need sugery on both his hips so thank God the Flamesa re staying far away from him.

McDonald imo is the best goalie prospect in the draft, glad to have him.

Because he was next on the list?

The Flames drafted Joni Ortio and Jon Gillies, who both appear to be excellent picks so far. Maybe the Flames scouts have a knack for selecting this position?

[Mass_nerder]

Can only hope Glover, Dougherty, or McKeown drop

[Imported_Aussie]

Well with all these goalies coming off now, maybe the |Flames knew there would be a run on goalies. Hopefully the next couple of picks can bolster the defensive stocks

[saXon]

Wow, rolling with the goalies so far. Crazy round already.

[Ashasx]

Maybe we can trade McDonald for a Smid in 2 years.
