Draft 2012

[Decki]

Seh ich auch so wie du das es ein durchschnittlicher Draft war. Der Goalie der in Runde 2 gedraftet wurde ist ja schon mit 18 Jahren ein Riese
Insgesamt wurden 3 College Spieler gedraftet. Wird wohl bei denen 3-4 Jahre dauern bis wir sie überhaupt im Pro Level sehen.
Vasiliev scheint ein interessanter Pick zu sein. Zwar besteht ja immer das Risiko das er in der KHL bleibt aber in Runde 7 kann man das schon mal machen

[Günne88]

für mich is es dann am ende ehr ne durchschnittliche Draft Class der Flyers.
1 Runde kam nen Center.man hat zwar ausserhalb der NHL wenig gute Center aber die vrohanden bei den Flyers sind allesamt noch Jung und extrem Talentiert. deswegen hat mich dieser Pick einwenig überrascht. aber die Flyers haben die letzten Jahre immer bewiesen das sie im Draften von Stürmer in der 1. Runde ein sehr gutes Händchen hatten.dennoch hät ich hir gern einen Defender gesehen. wie z.b Olli Maatta, Brady Skjei,....
ein Riese von Goalie in der 2 Runde. war ebenfalls überraschend. der 3 Pick war dann endlich mal nen Puck moving Defender aber undersized. hintenraus gab es dann noch ein paar Stay at Home Defender und mit Leier der 2. Stürmer.
warum man am ende nicht Hyka gedraftet hat is mir ein rätsel. letzten Jahr war man von ihm so angetan im Camp das man ihm am liebsten gleich ein Vertrag gegeben hätte und jetzt ein Jahr später und ner Starken ersten Saison in NA will man ihn doch net mehr.

Craig Button on Vasiliev: Shoulder injury killed draft stock; would have gone much higher if he wasn't hurt

Pick 141: Reece Willcox - Merritt Centennials (BCHL)

Hometown: Surrey, B.C.
Birthdate: 1994-03-20
Height 6'3"
Weight 184
Shoots/Catches: Right
Position: Defenseman

wechselt zur neuen Saison zur Cornell University

At the age of 17, it's a rarity for any defenseman to make the jump to NCAA Division 1 hockey, so this is a tremendous honour for Reece, but one that is definitely well deserved. By the end of last season, Reece established himself as one of Cents' top dmen, especially in the playoff series vs Salmon Arm. And this season, outside of helping the Centennials to a 2nd place seeding at Christmas time, he took home a gold medal with Team Canada West as the lone Centennials representative at the World Junior A Challenge.

The Lynah Rink, home of the Cornell Big Red
Outside of his skills on the ice at both ends of the rink, Reece is a very intelligent individual who has been able to maintain a 4.0 GPA (the equivalent of straight A's) while playing hockey, which is extremely difficult with the heavy practice and game schedule that consumes the life of a BCHL player still in high school.

Pick117: Taylor Leier - Portland Winterhawks (WHL)

Hometown: Saskatoon, SK
Birthdate: 1994-02-15
Height 5'11"
Weight 178
Shoots/Catches: Left
Position: Left Wing

http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=45615

one of my favorites is Taylor Leier, an 18-year-old left winger from Saskatoon who significantly increased the value of his draft stock this past weekend when he scored the game winning and empty net insurance goals in a game against the Tri-City Americans, with whom the Winterhawks are in a heated race for first place in the WHL's U.S. Division. When he's not busy improving his draft chances, Taylor is getting ready to play on Canada's U-18 ball hockey team in the World Championships this June. Which is why now would also be a good time to tune into Taylor's frequency; because it's about to get very loud.

Pick 111:   Fredric Larsson - Brynas Jrs. (Sweden)

Hometown: Karlstad, SWE
Birthdate: 1993-07-4
Height 6.3"
Weight 172
Shoots/Catches: Left
Position: Defenseman

http://www.eliteprospects.com/player.php?player=38937

Larsson came out of nowhere late in the season and was terrific in Sweden's junior under-20 playoffs for Brynas, and had scouts taking notice with his raw size and skating ability. At 6-3, 172 pounds, he's thin as a rail and lacks strength right now, but his development curve appears to be headed straight upward. He shows good poise and patience handling the puck, always skating with his head up looking to make plays, and usually makes very good decisions in puck movement. He's raw as hell, but has the kind of tools that project well down the road.

Pick 78:  Shayne Gostisbehere - Union College (NCAA)

Hometown: Margate, FL
Birthdate: 1993-04-20
Height 5.11"
Weight 160
Shoots/Catches: Left
Position: Defenseman

HF Profile

Shayne Gostisbehere was part of a well-balanced Union College team that made their very first Frozen Four appearance this spring. The Margate, FLA native led the Dutchmen in freshmen scoring with 22 points (five goals, 17 assists) playing in all 41 games and earned a spot on the ECAC All-Rookie team. His plus-18 ranked tied for second on the team. While Gostisbehere was on the scouting radar throughout the season, it was his excellent post-season performance that significantly boosted his draft stock.

Gostisbehere is a smart, puck-moving defenseman who sees the ice remarkably well. But what sets him apart from many collegiate rookie defensemen is his ability to balance great offensive skills with a solid defensive game. Gostisbehere is smart in knowing when to jump into plays and his decision-making is very good. He moves exceedingly well with the puck and his passing skills are excellent. Gostisbehere also possesses a great stick and does a good job of taking away lanes. While Gostisbehere's one-on-one coverage is good, he'll need to continue to improve his gap control. Gostisbehere is a superb skater with good speed and agility. He possesses a very good shot and can get pucks to the net. Gostisbehere's greatest attributes, such as his skating will be further enhanced with continued physical development.

Hometown: Jackson, NJ
Birthdate: 1994-01-20

"The kid's huge, the kid's huge," says Al Jensen, NHL Central Scouting's goaltending scout. "And he's got that drive and determination. He's aggressive, great athleticism and quickness. He's got the tools that could someday get him there. He's already got some of that stuff. Maybe four or five or six years down the road, the kid might be something."

Naja dadruch dass alle Verteidiger genommen haben, ist er halt übriggeblieben.

[DarthEde]

krass das die caps mit dem 11. forsberg bekommen haben. 
wurde der nicht mal sogar an 2. oder 3. stelle gehandelt?

[Decki]

Hmm mit einen Center hätte ich nun gar nicht gerechnet. Auf der Position sind wir ja eigentlich schon ganz gut aufgestellt mit Giroux, Schenn und Couturier. Aber nun gut ich lass mich von den Jungen überraschen hört sich ja alles ganz gut an

[Günne88]

dann müssts euch yandle aus PHX holen  

könnt ich mit leben    aber is immer ne frage des Preises.und da anscheinend einige Teams dran sind würd der recht hoch sein  
weitere Namen die mit Philly in verbindung gebracht werden: Nash,Ryan(wobei man schon gehört hat das die Flyers lieber nen Paket für Yandle als für Ryan schnüren würden)angelblich wollten die Ducks JVR+Couts/Schenn   , Weber( Offer sheet), Bouwmeester,Luke Schenn.
JVR steht ebenfalls hoch im Kurs. ich denk bei einem richtigen angebot dürfte der weg sein. die Sharks sind wohl jetzt auch mit eingestiegen.

Pick 20: Scott Laughton - Oshawa Generals

Hometown: Oakville, ON
Birthdate: 1994-05-30
Height 6.01"
Weight 178
Shoots/Catches: Left
Position: Center
comparable style: Mike Richards 
http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=128062

A hard working, two-way forward. Has a strong stride with good speed and excellent balance as he is very strong on his feet. He is extremely competitive and smart at both ends of the ice, strong down low and along the boards. He's a smart and instinctual player without the puck. His work ethic and compete levels may the best we have seen in the OHL this season, and he continues to show strong leadership abilities. He plays an aggressive, gritty, tough two-way game.

so bei den Centern sind wir mittlerweile Hervorragend aufgestellt    jetzt sollte doch aber bitte mal nen mobiler Defender her.
