Kass 7 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 I'd rather Holland traded the First rounder to get two 2nd rounders. I think Smith would've been around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kindlwillbegreat 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 I want them to pick Joakim Andersson. i personally wanted patterson cause im afraid he wouldnt make it till 5 ...........but now i really want mayorov , he had potential to be a 1st rounder , dont know why teams passed hes a big guy , power forward type , andersson would be good too though , since hes swedish im sure we'd take him lol I'd rather Holland traded the First rounder to get two 2nd rounders. I think Smith would've been around. he wouldnt of been around , commentators said last night that ottawa was gonna take him right after the wings here we come boys ! lol LOL joakim andersson................i wont complain but man have we become so predictable LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kindlwillbegreat 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 Joakim Andersson is the pick indeed. from what i read hes a big guy defensive type player , kinda sounds like franzen ..........plus we got helm and abdelkader that can play those roles , i personally would of taken maxim mayorov whos a power forward type player, again what do i know though lol .......i wont go against our scouts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL ......columbus traded up now and took mayorov , what a steal I don't think the wings have drafted a russian player since prior to the lockout. Until there is a transfer agreement, no one will take russians where they're supposed to be taken. Just look at cherepanov, a top 5 guy without a doubt slips to 18.

Mighty Wings 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2007 Here is eliteprospects.com description of Joakim Andersson: Andersson has very good size and strength and leadership abilities. Is aggressive and pretty physical, but could still play the body even more. Hockey sense is very good and playmaking ability above average. A good penalty killer. The knock Andersson is his skating and mobility. Not the slowest of skaters by any means, but acceleration could use some work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
