I thought that nod was at Burke but I wasn’t sure . It makes more sense that it was at Florida though. Either way, you got to love it when your GM shows a little nonverbal attitude. That is great.
ummmm no….thats not why….if it was, then their scouts shouldve been fired….they chose him bc he’s a great dman, not bc he played with tavares….what a silly suggestion
de haans gonna be unreal give him another year or two to bulk up and he’ll tear it up
I still dont get the move however I like everything ive read on Dehaan But hey we got JT!!!!!!!!
i wonder what number hes gonna where
de haan is so underrated. his hockey IQ and poise is off the charts. think of montreal’s andrei markov. the islanders made a good pick. he will be a legit #1 d-man in my mind.
I did notice the nod, but I figured it was to the Islanders table. :P
calvin is my fukin nigga. he was in my bio class last year lol
i think islanders moved up from 16 because they suspected Florida would take him. At 1:20 Snow gave a “hey suck it” look to someone, maybe the Florida GM.
De Haan and Tavares were teammates with the OHL’s Oshawa Generals. That must be why the Islanders made sure they got him.
i think it was Minn not Florida who wanted him. Maybe both. But I think Minn traded with us hoping thy could get De Haan at 16 and we switched so we could.
And Minn also went off the board with Nick Leddy who is a similar player.
