JM_ Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 DiPietro isn't that small... he's listed at 6'0" 192 pounds on hockeydb... he's already got 30 lbs on Miller he may grow an inch or two yet but he's not tiny either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some brands are a little too peaty for my taste. But start your day with a wee bit o' Baileys in the coffee. Ahhhhh... Not big on champagne and orange juice, but it's good at brunch too. Just don't drive. Or Ride. One thing I regret was never having tried a quality scotch whiskey. I stopped going out to bars and clubs at 30 years old and I'm not really a sit at home type of drinker.

Inge34 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Some pretty good picks made today. I forgot about Lind and then we draft him. Seems like a solid pick, 30 goal guy in the Dub, Gadjovich also in the second, Feisty winger who scored 40+ goals in the O. Great second round Then pick what a lot of scouts thinks is one of the best goalie prospects in the third. Well done so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canucks have nailed the draft so far, there really is no argument against it. Addressing needs while taking BPA in specific positions. A lot of hard working players with some flash...Culture is hopefully changing by bringing in some of the tenacious new blood! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not the most positionally sound goalie so he has to work 100x harder than other goalies which does in fact make him look a bit small in the net. However he has the highest compete level from any goalie in the draft, by far. Just needs to tighten up his game. Reminds me a bit of Tim Thomas.

I hope not, but I was higher on DiPietro than I was on Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this doesn't worry me at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what has me sold on him. Positioning can be taught. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
