Default 2016 Draft Combine

Phyiscal testing is underway.

Flames were scheduled to interview 94 of the 114 invitees at this years combine.


THW has an incredible live blog this year where they actually compare the listed and combine measured height and weight here:

http://thehockeywriters.com/2016-com...ights-weights/


For example:
German Rubtsov (5th Euro): Listed: 6-foot-2, 178 lbs Combine: 6-foot-0.5, 189.74 lbs
Mikhail Sergachev (8th NA): Listed: 6-foot-2, 208 lbs Combine: 6-foot-2.25, 221.36 lbs

Looks like Sportsnet is live streaming the combine testing:

http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/n...-combine-live/

edit: Maybe only streaming on when Matthews and Laine are testing. which is 7:30 MT and 1:00 MT.

Juolevi: cocky or confident?

Ryan Kennedy @THNRyanKennedy
Olli Juolevi was asked if he expects to be the first defenseman taken this year and he did not mess around: "Yeah, I'm the first defenseman"

Terry Koshan @koshtorontosun
Olli Juolevi expects to be first defenceman taken in #NHL draft. "I'm the smartest ... it's something that is hard to teach."

Hmm. Maybe Juolevi is trying to raise his draft stock by saying he has the best ceiling. Maybe he had great interviews with some of the teams. Maybe he's just cocky.

I wonder what it is?

2nd confirmed Flames interview so far. Matthews was the other one.

Mark Scheig @THWMark
Tage Thompson met with all 30 teams. Big sized center...no wonder.

A lot of talk about the two big Fins but Matthews is no slouch at 6'2.25" & 216.22 lbs. Sucks that a team systematically tanked to get him but it is what it is.

Good thing Al Davis isn't the Flames GM.

Central scouting's top 10 in each test. Updated throughout the day.

https://link.nhl.com/centralscouting/public/

They don't usually release the full results to avoid embarrassing prospects.

Can somebody say Meldonium?
