Leafs Young Players’ Draft – Katsaros vs. Tran

In the spirit of ranking the organization’s top young talent (prospects + established NHLers), Gus and I will be facing off tonight at approximately 10pm EST in a 1 on 1 drafting session of Maple Leaf players who are 24 years of age or younger (1986 birthdays and on).

Gus IS the Pro Scouting Coordinator for Mckeen’s Hockey, so I will have my work cut out for me, but I’m looking forward to the challenge. We will be selecting 6 forwards, 4 defensemen, and 1 goaltender each for a total of 22 young players with approximately 1 minute pauses between each pick. Contract status and/or cap hit will not be taken into account as this is purely an evaluation of performance and potential.

The draft will take place live in the comments section for all readers to follow, so be sure to come out and provide your two cents as it happens. Following the draft, the MLHS community will have the opportunity to vote to decide which crop of young players they would most like to move forward with.

See you all at 10pm EST tonight!

    Eakins isn’t getting what he asked for at all. A very mild game in the physicality department. Totally different from last year. Haven’t even seen any shoving let alone a fight. Where is the Burkie type team? I think I just saw 2 minutes for looking so guru is slumped over in his seat.

    I’ve been impressed with Stefanovich. He hasn’t done anything notable offensively, but he’s good with the puck.

    D’Amigo is getting better and better. Ross is a bit tentative but you can see that when he gets back next year he is going to be excellent.

    Kadri is a really crisp passer when he dishes. Reminds me of Kaberle with some of his passes. His touch is really soft.

    I think it’s safe to say him and Mueller have been our best player’s this tournament.
