0:00
All right, moving to the rest of it
0:02
Dayton, I'll talk, you know, there was a lot of, I mean, once the second round got going
0:08
there was, the picks started going a bit quicker as it always happens
0:12
But what'd you think about the whole draft in general, the players that were drafted, any surprises that you saw
0:19
What'd you think about it? Yeah, I thought it was pretty good. It had several surprises as the draft kind of went on
0:25
First, I think most notably, Aaron Kiviharju falling to, was that the fourth round
0:31
It was in the fourth round, yeah. Fourth round. There was no way that Aaron Kiviharju
0:36
should have fallen to the fourth round. That's a guy who should have been in the first
0:40
or just barely in the second. But he's a little guy, right? Yeah
0:45
And I think that's primarily what tanked his draft status. He had that injury
0:51
but he looked like he came back from it okay. And Adam Jurczyk was drafted highly
0:56
and he had an injury that took him out of everything. So I don't think those guys were leagues apart
1:04
So that was definitely the biggest surprise. Second biggest one was Ryerson Lienders
1:08
falling to the seventh round. One of the best goalies available in North America
1:13
to be sure. He did drop a little bit based on some injuries in the playoffs
1:19
and some inconsistency, but very, very athletic goalie. He makes saves, just he makes them look easy
1:28
highlight real stuff. I don't know how he ended up in the seventh round. What
1:34
There was so many weird no-name goalies taken before him, just waiting
1:39
Like where's Lienders? Those were definitely the two biggest surprises for me
1:44
But it was fun seeing all of these guys that we'd researched and looked up and scouted
1:50
for months and months finally find their home
