2013 NHL Draft Thread

Late second, early third.

 

If I'm the Hurricanes, I go defense these next two picks because our defensive prospects leave a lot to be desired (besides Murphy).

 

I go Bowey in the second, Subban in the third.

I'd love to see Subban make the team, probably going to be a great player like his brother.

P.K. said he thinks Jordan is better.

I'm really not understand the hate for Skinner.

 

 

Look at his advanced stats, look at his Goals against (over 160 in 188 games) Look at his Point Share over the last 100 games. Look at his shot percentage over the last 100 games. (9%) The fact he has 3 concussions already and is getting paid nearly 6 million a season. 

 

Or you can do it the easy way and look at Jordan Staal and Eric Staal's stats while having Skinner on their lines. <-Ouch! They're bad. 

 

It's not that his stats have gone down, it's that he's predictable as hell with the puck. His Shot percentage has plummeted to below average levels and that's the best part of his game!

My best guess is his stats went down... because.. of.. injuries.. you know..

[KillerKat]

Skinner offers nothing on defense. He was missing one-timers, turning the puck over, and getting easily knocked off the puck. The one thing he can do well he hasn't been good at in 2 seasons, scoring goals.

Yea, but he keeps getting Concussions and the thing about concussions is that they are easier and easier to get the more you have them. He's had 3 of them already.

[Jakob]

Almost that time again..

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

It needs to be Bowey, he is super fast and is a true two-way defensemen.

[Jakob]

holy poo...

He will be with New Hampshire next season.

Pesce, a defenseman, just completed freshman year at New Hampshire. Has said he plans to return for sophomore season.

Kid is way too skinny to play D, 170 pounds at 6'3?

[KillerKat]

I wish JR would take defense seriously and get some real bruisers. We have way too many offensive defensemen.
