Thebrewcrew Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Parekh and Gridin are both Dan Milstein clients. Milstein had the showcase in Florida last week. Clearly those two made an impression on the Flames. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTech780 Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Basically once you get passed 20 in this draft, it is wide open. 21-50 are all about the same level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thebrewcrew Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 When you have as many picks as the Flames do, you can take some swings. I think Gridin is that. I'll never fault them for betting on production though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring is the hardest thing to do in the NHL.. every set up guy needs a finisher ..if you can do both you're a superstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, one is a LHS and the other is a RHS. I don't mind LHS RW. Think Kuzmenko. Edit - scratch Kuz being a LHS. I was thinking of someone else. Sharky.

Thebrewcrew Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 I picked Emery to the Flames at 28th. Really hard to sell using a 1st on a guy that scored zero goals in his draft year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably wouldn’t have made it to 41. If you look at the way this draft has played out, there is no consensus in this draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
