amato 3,210 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Bode Wilde at 33 please. Hoping for Serron Noel or Jared McIsaac at 36, i think. Maybe trade up into the late second for Jett Woo or Benoit-Olivier Groulx. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe trade up into the late second for Jett Woo or Benoit-Olivier Groulx. I agree on Wilde at 33, and McIsaac, Noel or Thomas at 36. I'm not that high on Woo, and don't know much about Groulx... Kind of happy Samuelsson is gone. Go Wilde Kenny! 1 amato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amato 3,210 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 i'm for it! also, woo off the board earlier than expected. I like these couple of picks. Berggren must be pretty high on their list for us to not take 2 defensemen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krsmith17 7,191 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Islanders continue adding great talent. Wahlstrom, Dobson and Wilde. I like the Oilers picks as well. Bouchard and McLeod. 1 Keep Your Stick On the Ice reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
amato 3,210 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Apparently there are rumors out there that hurt Wilde's draft position. Off ice concerns or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dabura 12,228 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Yeah, I'm good with these picks. Probably not the way I would've gone, but, if nothing else, I'm all about our depth at forward right now. Berggren is a potential steal and a half. 2 minutes ago, krsmith17 said: Islanders continue adding great talent. Wahlstrom, Dobson and Wilde.

amato 3,210 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 Quote Jonatan Berggren is a very interesting prospect and one who several feel could be one of the underrated “steals” of the draft. He is a good skater with a very good feel for the game but it is his playmaking that will get him to the NHL. He has displays excellent vision on the ice and an almost uncanny ability to get the puck right where it needs to go. He has soft hands and quick wrists that allow him to receive the puck and get it off his stick very quickly. To go along with his hands he uses his edges well, affording him to move and change direction quickly and open up the space needed to make plays. https://www.wingingitinmotown.com/2018/6/22/17491806/2018-draft-profile-jonatan-berggren from the early sounds of it, Berggren could end up being a big steal. 4 TNWingedWheel, BigWillieStyle, Dabura and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dabura 12,228 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) Seems there were some off-ice concerns about Wilde. Possibly something about how he handled committing to/de-committing from college programs...? Wings have said they're emphasizing the importance of (perceived) character in their drafting, so I'm fine with not taking any chances on that front. https://dobberprospects.com/cam-robinsons-2018-nhl-draft-rankings-top-115-april-2018/ Jonatan Berggren / RW/C / 5’10 183lbs / 07-16-00 (SuperElit) An absolute wrecking ball of a player who has been posting tremendous numbers in the J20 circuit. Logs miles of ice as he forechecks with impunity, distributes the puck and knows how to finish as well. Terrific international performances at the Hlinka, Five Nations and U18’s offer scouts a glimpse of his skill on some big stages and he’s even looked capable in a 10 game stint in the SHL. Some of the best one-on-one skills in the class. A player his coaches love and his opponents hate.

Datsyukian-Deke 722 Report post Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) Our cupboard sure is stocked in forwards now. Hopefully we go D,D,Goalie in the 3rd. And there is always next year for those freaking out about defense. You aren’t going to rebuild an entire team with one draft. Even with 11 picks. We took draft steals and I think we maximized the picks we had so far. Yes 2 defenseman would have been nice so far but I really like Mcisaac Edited June 23, 2018 by Datsyukian-Deke 2 Neomaxizoomdweebie and Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
