USHL Draft

http://www.ushldraft.com/index.cfm

Started at 9:00.

I wonder if a Bandits player will go first?

Damn Coop is hitting the ground wheeling and dealing and ending up with the first 2 picks in the draft.

Miller 9th to the runner-ups

Cedar Rapids take Darren Rowe 7th overall. Kind of surprising to a degree. I have no doubt he can play the USHL game but sometimes his decisions could have been better.

But yeah, I wish him luck. One of I thought three Jr Blues that might get picked up here.

Makowski and Seckel go in the 3rd round to Cooper!! He already picked up what should be a good goalie and fleeced the Bucs for 2 picks.

Man I'd hate to see Seckel go, he's a fan favorite for sure.

I was waiting to see if Coop would take a Bandit, yeah I know big stretch.

Merrifield is already property of Cedar Rapids I bleieve....

Also a bit miffed about the trade. Ellingson has a year left after this upcoming one and Forney only has this season.

I'm unsure how good Ellingson is but Crandell wasn't bad with the team in front of him. Neither was Conway, who I think bolted back to Canada IIRC. Youso isn't a slouch and as an 90 had time to develop into a nice forward. And Gleason's one of Green Bay's better futures, and probably only a one year player himself with North Dakota on his radar.

Ellingson was 'hot shit' in Minnesota HS but I guess decided he needed more after being barely used in Northern Michigan. Guess we'll see.

Forney was at least high on NHL radars a while back, 80th to Atlanta in 2006 but got little playing time at UND and has had shoulder problems.

I don't know. They get two good kids but how much of a turn around is Coop looking for right away? And hell there's no garuntee those two will be in camp or make the club.

Yeah Merrifield and Johnson will be on Cedar Rapids I believe, seeing as Rapids does lose both their goalies this year.

Matt Tinordi to Chicago. Not sure if he's worth taking a trip up to Bensenville to see alone but always cool to see the kids of some of your favorite NHLers start making up the ranks. USHL is full of them right now.

Wasn't Ellingson hurt the whole year in the USHL previously? As for Crandall, I have heard mixed opinions out of Badger U regarding whether he can play or not.

I guess Green Bay does get another future and pick...whoopsie. Didn't see the note at the bottom. I was planning on "tuning in" after it was all done but my brother from Des Moines had to call me OMG that Cooper of yours and the Bucs made a deal. I do love how anything NAHL he references as 'mine.' But he didn't make any mention of the second pick or this other kid.

I guess it's a little more even than I thought I guess.

As for Ellingson, wasn't he with the Steel and I can't remember him at all so its possible. I'm not sure.

I believe you missed Darren Rowe from Springfield in the first round. They forgot to put "(NAHL)" after his team.

Green Bay Bandits/NAHLers

Good for Coop, Merrifield has shown he's an excellent player. Hope it works out well for them.

Good to see Travis White drafted. I am a big TW fan. Lincoln may have the sleeper of the draft in Travis. He was very solid all year long, not afraid to hit and he is just a 90 with 3 years left.

Rickord said he was going to stick around here for another year, sore at the USHL for getting cut by his hometown Steel but meh, joining a decent corp of forwards in Cedar Rapids might be tempting. But then again, they are returning what -- 9 or 10 forwards? So there's not a lot of room on the team.

I don't think he'll go but what's the harm in at least going to their training camp with Rowe.

Also you missed Scott Deur from the Brown Bears. The last pick of the draft.
