"Obviously a first overall pick is franchise altering." *shows Nail Yakupov*

[@Squatle]

Johnny's a Flames fan, as an Oiler's fan it's a fair shot to take.

[@SevenCompleted]

to be fair he did alter the franchise just not the way oilers fans wanted to see 😂

[@malcolmholmes2596]

It was. Yakupov and oilers being so bad allowed them to draft Draisaitl and mcdavid

[@somerandomidiot1333]

Don’t ever disrespect my boy Nail Yakupov again.

[@unforgivengaming8793]

Bring back the old ducks colours!!!

[@MatsLM]

Johnny you missed the biggest headline in Norway and for Norwegian hockey: Brandsegg-Nygård being the first Norwegian ever drafted in the first round of the NHL draft by the Red Wings, and Stian Solberg being drafted 23rd OV by the Ducks. This is super hype for the Norwegian hockey scene, as the old guns of Zuccarello, Thoresen, the Olimb brothers all age, a new era of Norwegian hockey is born. Also there were no Swedes drafted in the first round this year. Pretty wild draft for Scandinavian countries.

[@esperago]

Why did hockey grow so well in Sweden and Finland but not in Norway? Why is Norway arriving so late to the party?

[@andreasenberget1411]

@@esperago mostly because there aren't many icerinks in Norway (even Stockholm alone has more than Norway) and those few we have are very run down Hockey was starting to get popular in the 90s and 2000s but died down but has recently gotten more popular as a Norwegian hockey game on average has over 2000 spectators (new record set this season) and that's not bad for a country with just 5 million people fun fact is that the Norwegian final (EHL) had more spectators than the Swedish one (SHL)

The heartfelt story it's was the drafting of michael hage because he loss is father who was habs fan

[@user-qo1gk2kj3e]

Habs get the Demigod...very nice. Learning about Hage after Montreal picked him at 21, was very heart warming and inspirational. I believe he will be a very important part of Habs future success...and I wish him great success.

[@Ferr_rog2]

That Sharks fan at the draft was so funny

[@BloodRider1914]

Made the Celebrini draft actually interesting given how obvious he was as a 1st pick

[@sharkhaos_probably]

San Jose fan here. Pretty happy with this draft. Good for Montreal and all the other teams that picked high - it's gonna be nice to see your guys's colors in the playoffs against us eventually.

[@user-pg5sz2vn1w]

i dont see how tij would ever live up to the hype if he went to calgary. i think it is for the best he went elsewhere. not first round but the avs picking the khl rookie of the year and playoff mvp goalie when they got him seems like an absolute steal to me. how did no one draft him before now? he has had solid numbers for years.

[@SmokeyTheMarshmallow]

Colorados shotgun goalie strategy was interesting

[@panzerW0LF]

As a sens fan im incredibly happy with our pick. Size and upside while also filling a positonal need. After already having the 'small offensive defenceman' archtype not really working out with Brannstrom for example its great to get some size and grit on the backend who also has an offensive upside.

[@dawsonholdsworth5371]

Bud, I'm so hyped for this up coming season. If Staios can make some good Dman trades. I feel beating the leafs, won't just be our only highlight going into playoff time.

[@panzerW0LF]

@@dawsonholdsworth5371 Having a stud goalie now that can provide above 900 and just give consistency should help us scoop up the few extra points needed to make the playoffs. I don't even care if the sens go out in the first round, I'd love to just see this team competing in playoff hockey again.

[@XaviRonaldo0]

Interesting what Edmonton did. They obviously were very keen on that kid. So much so that they're confident a likely higher pick in the future won't be as good

[@superownful]

The ducks pick is eithering getting someone fired or a huge pay raise

[@matthewkabel6246]

Lmfao no one on the Ducks is getting fired, Madden and Verbeek have nailed their drafts

[@Habsfan56744]

I think demidov was exactly what we need I’m so happy with this pick ThAnK YOU 🙏 hockey gods! And I think have was a great pick too

[@MrGamman3yt]

Thank Anaheim. why on earth wouldn't they trade down?

[@matthewkabel6246]

@@MrGamman3yt Because they can afford a high upside swing who's experienced a massive growth spurt with all their elite 23 and under talent. Also Jackets were gonna take Sennecke at 4

[@lauig]

The Bruins got some Zdeno Chara revival vibes selecting that giant kid Dean Létourneau , also love what the Hurricanes pulled off with those later picks Badinka, Artamonov & Poirier that ain't bad at all

[@sportsmaster1364]

"What are your thoughts?" Me, an Oilers fan expecting to have to wait until pick #64: I dunno, I never thought we'd make it this far 🤷‍♀️

Celine Dion is the biggest steal of the draft

[@marcbabineau6001]

Sharks and Habs clear winners, leaving the draft with Celibrini and Dickinson is insane. Flyers we're drunk

[@thai2go]

[@dawsonholdsworth5371]

​@@thai2go Detroit probably wishes they. We're back in the west :p

[@habsgaming97]

It’s up to u but u should do a vid on Micheal hage cause he got drafted by his favourite team growing up and dedicated last season to his dad who passed away in a swimming pool accident

[@imulippo5245]

Nobody's going to mention Aatos Koivu, #70 by Canadiens? His dad Saku was with Canadiens 14 season, and captained ten of them.

[@joydjinn8692]

San Jose, Montreal, Calgary and Minnesota are the biggest winners

[@SaveznaRepublikaJugoslavija]

We picked up the top ranked European goaltender and traded up to get Sam O’Reilley so interesting moves for sure

[@coastaku1954]

Cole Eiserman selected 20th by the islanders. He is the all time scorer for the USA Development Team with 127 goals and he is committed to BU for the 24-25 season and he also is only 17 and turning 18 in August.

[@slimboyardee8047]

im so hyped

[@davidcarp1034]

I'd have rather Tij gone to any other team tbh. I don't like the prospect of him being shoehorned into a "face of the franchise" position just to capitalize on his name recognition. Half the buzz around him was for the wrong reason (Jerome) and I have a bad feeling that was like 90% of the reason Utah selected him at 6th.

[@NishantMehrotra]

It’s Jarome.

[@MrHunterbg]

I love the stories that came from this draft, but i don''t see this really being an amazing draft as most people think

[@kylejohnson5493]
