anyone got the scoop on this guy?</div></div>

I mean, he's 20. Matthew Wood, who's 17, put up pretty similar PPG totals. So not going to be a superstar per se, but if he lights it up at Michigan, could be one to watch.

My notes from the draft (this might be long)

Columbus, Dallas, Chicago (I'll explain), Montreal, New Jersey, and Buffalo were all winners IMO

Columbus is just going to be absolutely freaky in a few years. Jarmo is building an all-star D core. Werenski, Boqvist, Ceulemans, Jiricek, Mateychuk as a top six is frightening. LDBB is also super friggin talented, steal. Jordan Dumais had 109 points in the Q and they got him in the 3rd round, steal. Dolzhenkov is a super dark horse, steal. Sergei Ivanov is the next Daniil Tarasov, steal. James Fisher should have gone way earlier, steal. Kekalainen is becoming one of my favourite GMs.

I love Dallas' drafting. It started with them drafting my idol Logan Stankoven last season, but it has just been stellar. Wyatt Johnston exploded, Artem Grushnikov and Lian Bichsel are both absolutely going to be shutdown NHL defenders, Ayrton Martino and George Fegaras are two of my OJHL boys with lots of potential, Christian Kyrou could be a dynamo, they got Matthew Seminoff in the 6th round. Come on. I might be a Stars fan by the end of this.

I've seen a lot of hate towards Chicago's draft the last few days, and I think it's without reason. Korchinski is a fantastic, puck moving defenceman with offensive upside, perfect guy to sit right behind Jones. Nazar could be a point per game NHLer. Rinzel I was a bit confused by, since he probably would have fell to the second anyway, but a big, raw, high-ceiling defender is never bad for a rebuilder. I've said it before, Ludwinski might be one of the most outright skilled players in the class. Ryan Greene and Gavin Hayes both have strong middle six potential. And then I think getting Dominic James in the 6th is a sleeper pick, he looked strong in his stint in the PPed WJC. Overall, they built a nice foundation. They'll hopefully get a Bedard/Michkov/Fantilli/Dvorsky/Ritchie/Carlsson/Yager sorta thing next draft.

I'm obviously biased, but I loved the Habs' draft. Wright was clearly not the surefire number 1, and I am loving Slaf so far. Wright is being a bit of a b*tch about it too, which makes me feel all the better. I remember after the WJC everyone put Mesar in the early first round, but then they lost interest when he went back to Slovakia. He could be good, I see Lehky in him. Beck obviously is a great pick, very good worst-case scenario. Hutson is a very similar player to Casey, and I love him. Everyone else was solid, Kent continued Bergevin's recent interest in CHL overagers and I think I'm OK with that, seeing how Harvey-Pinard turned out.

New Jersey is like Edmonton but better. They get handed a bunch of lottery picks, and instead of fumbling the bag (and throwing the entire thing into the river tbh) they turned them into something. Nemec is going to be a great player 100%, solid top 4 D. Nothing more, nothing less. Casey.....c'mon guys, I bet the Habs would have taken him at Hutson's pick. You broke my heart. All I want to see is Stankoven and Casey in Habs threads. Anyway, Tyler Brennan that late was a steal. Charlie Leddy is an interesting case, dark horse for sure, as is Josh Filmon. Pretty good.

Buffalo is weird. I felt like they left the draft missing something, even though they are sitting on an embarrassment of riches at every position. Like, come on, Leinonen? When you have UPL, Levi, and Portillo in the system already? Safety net I guess. Anyway, I love the Savoie pick, he's gonna bite everyone in the ass like Caufield did. Ostlund is a scary similar player to Isak Rosen, which I found funny. Tiny, skinny Swedes who struggled initially in the SHL who the Sabres kind of reached on in the middle of the first. Kulich was a great pick, steal that late. After that, fine. The Sabres are one of those teams (Lookin at you, Arizona and Detroit) who like to take the most obscure guys in the later rounds, and the Sabres made me laugh by taking yet another guy with a strangely long name: Joel Ratkovic (tee-hee) Berndtsson (some unneeded consonants there). Adding to UPL of course, William Worge Kreu, and William von Barnekow.

That's pretty much it. Of course Yzerman will do Yzerman things and pick Marco Kasper at 8th, and he'll turn out just fine. Washington picked the Russian, Anaheim loaded up on French guys, and Tampa somehow got Isaac Howard and Lucas Edmonds. Ottawa had a sh*t draft as usual, and I was astonished to see how often San Jose and the Islanders picked.

Y'all are sleeping on Zam Plante for best name of the draft.

I know this is way out of context but I swear I saw Lamoureux mouth "no, don't show that!"

I went to Game 2 of the Hamilton Bulldogs vs North Bay Battalion last Friday and here were my observations:

Mason McTavish was in a league of his own. He's an NHL player, it's clear to me. He'll challenge for Zegras' spot as 1C next season

Arber Xhekaj is a very solid defenceman. Moved the puck well, layed the body a few times, got some scoring chances. He'll get some AHL seasoning, but maybe a 3rd pairing guy for the Habs

Artem Grushnikov is a very good defensive defenceman. You don't notice him in the O zone, but he's everywhere in the D zone. He had some huge hits, and nothing got by him.

Logan Morrison and Avery Hayes, while both overagers, are very solid hockey players. I wouldn't be surprised if they played in the AHL next season.

Ty Nelson, to my dismay, didn't stick out to me. If I hadn't been watching for him, I wouldn't have noticed him.

Brandon Coe was terrific. Big and lanky, but he skates really well, is a fantastic playmaker, and got an abundance of scoring chances

Nathan Staios was a very good PP quarterback, another overager who I would expect to get a pro contract
