I wouldn't say he dropped. He went right around where most of the rankings had him... late teens - early 20s.

Hope we take Daniil Gutik in the with one of our late rounders.

Good two way player with speed and hands. Lethal shot also.

Also played with Nikolaev last year.

so goes to Minnesota at 9 ... I don't hate this. Thought he'd go off the board earlier, but this could be a really good fit for him, and the Wild immediately turn from boring to interesting for me

there should be two more Austrians drafted today. Thimo Nickl has consistently been ranked as a 3rd round pick (we could use a RH defenseman, right? ) and Senna Peeters could be a mid to late round pick as well.

I hope the Flames draft one of them, it would be nice to have some coverage in Austria about them, and that is not gonna happen without an austrian player i hope they draft baumgartner in the last round. 4 players draftet would be pretty incredible, since the last Austrian drafted was in 2006.

And the Sharks signing their pick was a lovely and classy moment

As someone with an Aunt (mom's bestie) who is losing her hearing due to Lupus this brought tears to my eyes.
