Dabura 12,207 Report post Posted June 28, 2014 Stevie Y's really starting to establish himself as a legitimate GM in this league. The Bolts are going to be terrifyingly good in a few years. They could use this pick to get Dan Cleary and it wouldn't matter. So much great young talent in their system. 1 krsmith17 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kipwinger 8,524 Report post Posted June 28, 2014 I think the fact that his favorite team was the Maple Leafs is clear evidence that he's got terrible judgement and probably will be plagued by poor decision making his whole career. Hmmm...now that I think about it, does anybody know if Brendan Smith's favorite team growing up was the Maple Leafs? lol. 1 F.Michael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Namingway 146 Report post Posted June 28, 2014 I, for one, am just happy that we actually got someone well-ranked in this year's draft and not just some random name we've never even heard of, who would've gotten picked up by some team in the later rounds. Oh, to top it off, he actually WANTS to play for Detroit. He mentioned it not long before the draft: http://www.freep.com/article/20140627/SPORTS05/306270063/red-wings-nhl-draft Welcome, Dylan Larkin! Looking forward to seeing what you got Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Datsyukian-Deke 722 Report post Posted June 28, 2014 For the record, I like the pick. But who's comparing him to Ryan Kesler? It said it on the graphic on NBCSN as he was walking on stage...

evilmrt 636 Report post Posted June 28, 2014 Wow, they did pick Larkin. Thats pretty cool, this kid is about as Michigan as any of you guys could want. He's from freaking Waterford, played for the Belle Tire club, then for USNTDP in Ann Arbor, and now he's suiting up for U of M. Surely some of you guys know this kid? 1 frankgrimes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
