2015 NHL Entry Draft - Draft Day!

[Mr. Leaf]

Getting closer to a pretty exciting time for the Leafs with picks 61, 65 and 68. Go Mark Hunter!

I wonder if they'll take Kylington if he's still there?

I'm not sure what's worse the draft coverage or the commercials.

Man, that bottle opener thingy...

 

[ZBBM]

I'm just pointing out what his stats say. 

Yes, and his conclusion is that the Leafs made a good value pick based on the actual difference between the picks they had and the picks they traded. The value of first round picks in the aggregate doesn't trump that over the value of second round picks in the aggregate.

Yes, and his conclusion is based on fundamentally  flawed statistical reasoning. Has this paper been published in the peer reviewed lit?

This coverage from everyone has been awful. Like how hard is it? I get the NHL Network broadcast maybe can't cover everything because of how fast things are going but why don't they at least have a graphic on the side showing all the recent picks that they didn't announce?

Sure.

Getting him and/or Bracco with those picks would be nice.

You have no idea how many times I've struggled with a can of sardines...

And pop bottles? Opening those are torture.

This has been a pretty solid draft for US prospects so far.  10 of 40 picks from the US.

Calgary takes Kylington one spot before the Leafs. Blah.

Papercuts.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Leafs pick Bracco!

 

[Kin]

Hey, I'm not mad at that.

Over two seasons with the U18 program, Bracco is statistically the best U.S. NTDP playmaker of all time with his combined 122 assists.

Corey Pronman had him rated 16th in his rankings.

Would have loved Kylington but yeah, Bracco is a great pickup.

Toronto Maple Leafs ‏@MapleLeafs  15s16 seconds ago
With the 65th overall pick, the #Leafs have selected Andrew Nielsen of the Lethbridge Hurricanes. #TMLtalk #TMLDraft

Now's the time we start getting players nobody has a clue about.
