It could be me glorifying the olden days - but wasn’t the draft a more crazy trade time 15 or so years ago? Lacklustre.

For players and such? I feel that stuff is more difficult not only with NMC and etc but with signing bonuses on July 1.

From the tweeter

One OHL coach told me #LeafsForever    No. 31 pick Ben Danford was one of the smartest — and meanest — players in the draft.

“He’s mean. Whoever takes this guy is getting someone who will be a 22-minute-a-night guy in a few years.”

Ya man - just in general you know. Cap made hockey not as fun in my opinion. I get the parody (sp?) and all that eh - but it’s just so damn hard to shake it up and there is so much more caution with everything. Also so bloody tired of hearing about term/cap hit/age/cap percentage and all that when evaluating. I completely understand that’s the name of the game now on building a team for sure - just don’t like it. I like the teams just chucking around cash and seeing super teams play each other. Like a Wings/Rangers game was like a HOF game back in the day ha

It is so funny because as fans we watch a game or two and then get really pissed off when our guy isn't taken. Then totally rip our picks when later ones work out better. Draft picks are such a lottery for the most part.

Yeah, it was a great moment. Between her and Michael Buffer, really looked like the draft was a show this year.

Really happy with Demidov, can't believe he fell to 5.

Hage is a great pick too, the fact he was a Habs fan growing up is icing on the cake.

Agreed - out of the top 12-15 it’s a bit of a calculated dart board.

You said you watched the Gens this year? What are your thoughts on Danforth. He was very noticeable in the one series.
- jribout


Sennecke is obviously on another level, but Danforth was similar in that he also got a lot better as the season went on (can probably be said for most of the Gens, really). Even if the points didn't reflect it late in the season.

I wouldn't say he was one of the main guys, but he was solid on their playoff run.
