Matthew looked really excited and Keith was brimming with pride. I think they're both happy.

I don't think many Oiler fans are going to get bothered by any smack talk about this first round.

Tkachuk says he thoroughly enjoyed his visits with the Flames prior to the draft

How (if at all) NHL ready is Tkachuk seen as? Chances of him cracking the roster this October?

Anyone who says Tkachuk can't skate is out to lunch. Is Monahan a terrible skater too? This kid is gonna be Gary Roberts 2.0. Great pick!

This was a dream scenario a few weeks ago but damn that little spurt of hope for Puljujarvi spooling it. Well, onto "pshh Tkachuk > Puljujarvi".

Thanks to FDW, New Era et al endlessly debating Tkachuk/Dubois vs Nylander in the NHL Draft thread. Learned a lot about this kid and it turned out being very relevant.

I'm pretty excited Tkachuk fell to us.
Now I just need to learn to spell that stupid last name consistently.

#FlamesDraft @NHLFlames
Al MacInnis texted Keith Tkachuk "You're lucky," after @TKACHUKycheese_ was drafted by the #Flames.

Looks like Tkachuk might have fallen to Flames regardless of CBJ

Ryan Rishaug @TSNRyanRishaug
Sounds like the Oilers were going to take a Dman at 4 before the suprise happened at 3

I'm just not getting why anyone would be unhappy with picking up Tkachuk at 6th????

Awesome the Flames got the player they wanted. For those who are not happy with it, who should they have picked instead?

It is either London or the Flames. Can't play in Stockton thanks to CHL/NHL agreement.
