For a steal I’m going to skim the obvious Shark steals:
Eklund (7th was a huge jackpot)
Gaudreau (many considered him a early 2nd round talent and easily the 3rd best goalie of the draft)
Weatherby (I mean 102 OA and many said he was a long term kinda whatever project who now looks like a potential 3C soon)
But for more steal type selections I’m going with;
Daniil Gushchin
He’s the type of player that has a high ceiling because of the pure talent he possesses. He is not a steal that WILL be a star (like he still has work to do); but he is a steal because if he can utilize his electrifying hands in the pro game, he could easily become a talented top 6 winger.
To keep it short the second name I’m gonna use is a name not many may expect; Adam Raska. 201st OA and he already looks like he could become a useful bottom 6/ 3rd line banger. But more importantly he actually looked like his talent could develop to make him a 30 point guy who will be an irreplaceable heart and soul guy. If Raska can continue this upward trend, he’ll be an amazing selection.
HM:
Bordeleau
Hatakka
Knyzhov (undrafted)
Robins
Dahlen (wasn’t really our pick so can’t count him imo)
