Below Are all my thoughts and opinion on the picks of the draft yesterday for the SMJHL Draft.
Round 1 1: Colorado Raptors (via STL) - Xavier Beausoleil - Looks like a Great pick projects to be a great player and hey I got this pick right in my mock draft! 2: Great Falls Grizzlies (via QCC) - Jani Mänty - Great pickup for QCC tied for Top TPE in this Draft Class(As on SHL Analytics) 3: Kelowna Knights - Jonas Salat - Looks like a real solid D-Man. 4: Great Falls Grizzlies - Jae-ik Barron - Good All-around player should be a top contirbutor on offence and looks good on Defence too. 5: Detroit Falcons - Prince Marius - Is prince his Title or first name? 6: Anchorage Armada - Jean-François Bokassa -Tall, Big, hockey player. A good add. 7: Colorado Raptors - Update Portal - The orignal (I am told) 8: Regina Elk - Guy Incognito - Is it Guy (G-I) or Guy(G-E)? Also New Teammate! 9: Kelowna Knights (via CAR) - Brooklyn Physt - Absolute STEAL at Number 9 should of been top 5! 10: Vancouver Whalers - Graham Schwartz - fast player. Good Offensive Talent, some Defensive stats should be improved though. Would be great on the Power Play. 11: Yukon Malamutes - Kristian Seppanen - Another good, solid, fast D-Man. 12: Nevada Battleborn - Unspeakable Horror - I also got this right on my mock draft! 13: Newfoundland Berserkers - Sad Ketchup - Ketchup is better served room temp. 14: Maine Timber - Jeff Goldblum - Solid Overall d-man should be a great add to the reigning champs. Round 2 15: Quebec City Citadelles (via GFG) - Ryland Murphy - Great Add. Should be a good, active player. 16: Detroit Falcons - Mephistopheles Morgonstjärna - One of the best names in the draft and definetly the longest(I think). 17: Regina Elk (via STL, via QCC) - Bobby Tkachuky - Great name; great story. 18: Carolina Kraken (via KEL) - Betzee Nickelback - One of the better picks in the draft, should be a great active player. 19: Colorado Raptors - Jussi Mutou - Has solid overall stats. 20: Anchorage Armada - Sim Wen - Good Pickup, thought they would go higher ngl. 21: Regina Elk - Mac Turner - Hey I was drafted! 22: Colorado Raptors (via STL) - Liam Rodgers - This one could end up being a steal if this player remains active. 23: Carolina Kraken - Benji Hunter - Has Great shot accuracy! 24: Kelowna Knights (via VAN) - Ho Lee-Smokes - Guess thats what his parents said when they were born. 25: Newfoundland Berserkers - Ondrej von Stoodrick - "Von" is a cool title/name (Idk) 26: Yukon Malamutes - Florian Söderberg-Motyla - I also got this right on my mock draft! 27: Nevada Battleborn - Milk Jones - Give this person some MILK! 28: Maine Timber - Jordan Thompson - Inspired by Evander Kane? Round 3 29: Great Falls Grizzlies - Declan Van Ryker - "Van" would also be a cool title/name (Again idk). 30: Detroit Falcons - Kenny Omega - Could be a great pickup and steal if player remains active and slighty improves all defensive stats. 31: Yukon Malamutes (via QCC) - Jim Wen - The other Wen! Also first goalie(I think)! 32: Detroit Falcons (via KEL) - Gavin Harrison - Another good pickup I guess aslong as they remain active. 33: Colorado Raptors - Nik Smith - Great Defensive stats could make a great stay-at-home D-man but offense can be improved. 34: Anchorage Armada - Ubba Lodbrok - Looks like a steal! 35: Regina Elk (via CAR, via REG, via CAR, via REG) - Red Panda - Dang this pick was traded a lot! Also new teammate! 36: Maine Timber (via STL) - Roman Roy - Great Shot Accuracy! 37: Kelowna Knights (via CAR via DET) - David Soupre - Soup. 38: Vancouver Whalers - Nick Larsson - Another Nik but this time spelled "Nick!" 39: Newfoundland Berserkers - Entropy Sanchez - One of the better prospects when it comes to getting open on the ice. 40: Kelowna Knights (via YUM via DET) - Daniel Durkburg - Cool last name. 41: Colorado Raptors (via NBB) - Valerija Serapin - Try pronouncing that! 42: Maine Timber - Wain Gretski - Name sounds familiar. Other: 44: Detroit Falcons - Mike Badcock - Name says it all. 45: Quebec City Citadelles - D3rb Man - Another Big player. 48: Anchorage Armada - Eetu Vahtera - Decent faceoff stats and good Defensive read. 49: Regina Elk - Hank Falcon - Another Teammate! 55: Regina Elk (via NBB via YUM) - Tiko Menhir - Another One! 59: Quebec City Citadelles - Justin Wood - A lot of "J" names in the draft. 68: Yukon Malamutes - Andre Bertram - One pick away from funny number.
