Falling star?

Just cleaning up my leftovers from the bantam draft here and noticed one thing that I thought was rather interesting. Calgary Royals Gold AAA bantam captain Trent Geiger, a player who was picked to go in the first round in more than a few mock drafts that I saw, as well as being ranked in the top ten by ISS, wasn't even picked at all.

I don't normally put a lot of stock in mock drafts because it's almost impossible to predict how more than a few teams are going to draft, but surely a player good enough to be ranked that high by ISS (a presumably reputable scouting service) would have been picked at some point. But he wasn't....no team even used a piddling 13th round pick on the kid.

He had excellent numbers - 57 points in 31 games in the Alberta AAA bantam league, and then another 18 points in 10 playoff games. And at 5'9", 150lbs, a good size. With those numbers, you'd think that even if he swore up and down that he was going the NCAA route, some team would still use a later round pick on him, just in case.

Just one of those things that makes you wonder.

Two more trades

Two more trades today, both involving Tri-Cities...

First, they have sent '91 forward Jason Gardiner to the Regina Pats for '90 forward Neal Prokop. This represents a swap of two former first-round bantam picks who have not quite lived up to the potential that made them such high picks originally.

In the second deal, the Ams send '89 defenceman Mitch McColm to the Chilliwack Bruins for a 2011 4th round bantam pick. A move that helps clear up the Americans' overage situation for next year.

Bantam draft - the rest

Going to combine all the remaining picks in the 11th round and later into one post here, since several teams have passed now so we'll be done soon...

Another mighty home-run swing...Shore is another guy with first round talent but the fact that he went in the 10th round tells you what WHL scouts think of his chances of coming to the WHL. And hey, didn't the Bruins get burned picking his brother Drew Shore a few years ago?

I believe Kramer is a '91, who played for the Grande Prairie Storm of the AJHL last year. So, somebody must have dropped Kramer from their list and the Oil Kings wanted him.

End of the third round....

Bantam draft - second round

One trade to announce before we start the 2nd round picks....Chilliwack has traded defenceman Matt Strong to the Vancouver Giants for Vancouver's 8th round pick in 2010. Strong will help patch up a Giants blueline which will take major losses from this year's team.

Also, the details of the Edmonton-Chilliwack deal are out - the two teams swapped first round picks, with Chilliwack also sending their first round pick in the 2010 import draft to Edmonton. In return, Edmonton also gave up their first round pick in the 2009 Import draft, a 5th round pick in 2010, and defenceman Shayne Neigum.

And the Prince George - Tri-City deal was a straight swap of first rounders, with Tri-City giving the Cougars their third round pick today in order to move up.

To the 2nd round we go....

Balog was rated as a top-ten talent on some lists. A poor second half of the season may have led to his drop in the draft. Could be a steal for the Pats?

08-09: Airdrie Xtreme (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 14gp-1g-5a-6pts-20pim

07-08: Airdrie Xtreme (Western bantam championships) -- 5gp-0g-1a-1pts-2pim

That's the end of the 2nd round....

Bantam draft - first round

Draft should be getting underway soon....the thing was supposed to start almost half an hour ago so either they're having some technical problems, the buffet ran out of scrambled eggs, or somebody's trying to wheedle the #1 pick out of Portland with a trade.

I'm feeling pretty crappy today so I might not update as frequently. We'll see how it goes.

And here we go.....the Hawks have picked at #1....
Derrick Pouliot - Defence, 5'11" 165lbs
08-09: Weyburn Wings (SSMHL AA bantam) -- 26gp-25g-38a-63pts-24pim
08-09: Moose Jaw Warriors (SMHL AAA midget) -- 5gp-1g-1a-2pts-0pim
08-09: Moose Jaw Warriors (Macs Midget Tournament) -- 4gp-3g-2a-5pts-2pim
08-09: Weyburn Wings (Saskatoon bantam tournament) -- 3gp-3g-3a-6pts-2pim
08-09: Weyburn Wings (Western Bantam Championships) -- 4gp-2g-2a-4pts-6pim
07-08: Weyburn Wings (SSMHL AA bantam) -- 26gp-6g-24a-30pts-18pim

Pouliot is said to be a strong two-way defenceman with future team captain potential.

With #2, it's Moose Jaw:
Morgan Rielly - Defence, 5'10" 158lbs
08-09: Notre Dame Hounds (SSMHL AAA bantam) -- 23gp-25g-27a-52pts-8pim
08-09: Notre Dame Hounds (SMHL AAA midget) -- 4gp-0g-2a-2pts-4pim
08-09: Notre Dame Hounds (KIBIHT) -- 7gp-7g-4a-11pts-2pim
08-09: Notre Dame Hounds (Nike/Bauer AAA bantam tournament) -- 7gp-2g-5a-7pts-0pim
08-09: Notre Dame Hounds (St. Albert AAA bantam tournament) -- 6gp-7g-7a-14pts-0pim

Rielly is probably the best offensive defenceman available in the draft. Puck-mover and powerplay QB.

At #3, Chilliwack trades their pick to Edmonton....how's that for a shocker. No idea what is coming back to the Bruins, we'll find out. The Oil Kings pick:
Griffin Reinhart - Defence, 6'4" 190lbs
08-09: Vancouver NW Giants (BCMMHL AAA midget) -- 3gp-1g-3a-4pts-0pim
08-09: Vancouver NW Giants (BCMMHL AAA midget - PLF) -- 2gp-0g-0a-0pts-0pim
08-09: Hollyburn Huskies (BCAHA AA midget) -- no stats
07-08: Hollyburn Huskies (KIBIHT) -- 5gp-1g-1a-2pts-6pim

He's the son of former NHL defenceman Paul Reinhart (and younger brother of Kootenay Ice forward Max Reinhart) and look at that size for a 14 year old....

#4, Red Deer:
Matt Dumba - Defence, 5'10" 155lbs
08-09: Calgary Bronks (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- 33gp-20g-18a-38pts-103pim
08-09: Calgary Bronks (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 2gp-3g-0a-3pts-2pim
08-09: Calgary Stampeders (SAML - midget 15 y.o.) -- no stats
08-09: Calgary Bronks (KIBIHT) -- 7gp-4g-3a-7pts-4pim
08-09: Calgary North Stars (Alberta Cup) -- 5gp-4g-2a-6pts-10pim
07-08: Calgary Bronks (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- 33gp-3g-8a-11pts-26pim
07-08: Calgary Bronks (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 2gp-1g-1a-2pts-2pim

A lot of people spoke of Dumba as possibly the #1 pick....two-way guy, likes the physical play.

#5, Regina:
Chandler Stephenson - Forward, 5'8" 161lbs
08-09: Saskatoon Generals (SMHA AA bantam) -- 48gp-49g-61a-110pts
08-09: Saskatoon Blazers (SMHL AAA midget) -- 9gp-2g-1a-3pts-2pim
08-09: Saskatoon Blazers (Macs Midget Tournament) -- 1gp-0g-1a-1pts-0pim

Stephenson is the first forward chosen after four defencemen....a lot of folks thought the best forward in the draft was the next guy picked, Winther....Stephenson seems a bit small for me (when was the last time the top forward picked was a 5'8" guy?) but Winther isn't much bigger.

#6, Prince Albert:
Mike Winther - Center, 5'9" 155lbs
08-09: Airdrie Xtreme (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- 32gp-40g-23a-63pts-48pim
08-09: Airdrie Xtreme (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 14gp-13g-9a-22pts-20pim
08-09: Airdrie Xtreme (St. Albert AAA bantam tournament) -- 7gp-6g-3a-9pts-6pim
08-09: Airdrie Xtreme (Western Bantam Championships) -- 4gp-5g-6a-11pts-2pim
08-09: Central Thrashers (Alberta Cup) -- 5gp-1g-3a-4pts-4pim
07-08: Airdrie Xtreme (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- 32gp-29g-33a-62pts-69pim
07-08: Airdrie Xtreme (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 10gp-9g-6a-15pts-6pim
07-08: Airdrie Xtreme (Western bantam championships) -- 5gp-3g-3a-6pts-4pim

Another trade now.....Prince George has traded the #7 overall pick to Tri-City. Again, no word yet on what the deal was. Like the Reinhart deal, I suspect these are swaps of first round picks, with Chilliwack and Prince George just moving down in the first round in exchange for something else. We'll find out in due time, I'm sure.

Anyway, at #7, the Ams pick....
Connor Rankin - Center, 6'0" 185lbs
08-09: NSWC Winter Hawks (BCAHA AAA bantam) -- no stats

Rankin was the near-consensus pick as the top forward in B.C.....sorry, no stats though.

At #8, Everett....
Nicholas Walters - Defence, 6'0" 160lbs
08-09: St. Albert Sabres (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- 32gp-4g-24a-28pts-68pim
08-09: St. Albert Sabres (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 5gp-0g-4a-4pts-10pim
08-09: St. Albert Sabres (St. Albert AAA bantam tournament) -- 5gp-1g-2a-3pts-10pim
08-09: Northwest Sharks (Alberta Cup) -- 5gp-0g-2a-2pts-0pim
07-08: Kelowna Pursuit of Excellence (KIBIHT) -- 7gp-1g-2a-3pts-4pim
07-08: Kelowna Pursuit of Excellence (St. Albert AAA bantam tournament) -- 5gp-1g-1a-2pts-0pim

#9, Chilliwack uses Edmonton's pick....so we know they just moved down:
Steven Hodges - Center, 5'9" 150lbs
08-09: South Delta (Victoria AAA bantam tournament) -- 5gp-6g-3a-9pts-2pim
08-09: South Delta (South Delta AAA bantam tournament) -- 3gp-2g-4a-6pts-2pim

#10, Kamloops:
Brady Gaudet - no ht/wt
08-09: Carlyle Moose Mountain Wild (SSMHL AA bantam) -- 26gp-15g-23a-38pts-57pim
08-09: Carlyle Moose Mountain Wild (Saskatoon bantam tournament) -- 3gp-4g-1a-5pts-8pim

#11, Everett - using Lethbridge's pick they acquired in the Kyle Beach trade:
Seth Jones - Defence, 6'2" 170lbs
08-09: Dallas Stars (USA AAA bantam) -- no stats
08-09: Dallas Stars (Nike/Bauer AAA bantam tournament) -- 5gp-2g-4a-6pts-0pim

Everett swings for the fences....Jones was ranked right up there with those defencemen who went in the top four picks, but he's not comitted to the WHL, yet. Obviously the Silvertips are gambling they can convince him. He's the son of former NBA player Popeye Jones.

#12, Seattle:

Shinkaruk is the little guy in this adorable picture (by the Calgary Sun's Dave Chidley) from the 1996-97 WHL season, when he was 2 years old. The Hitmen used to pick a junior fan who got to skate with the team during the pre-game, and stand on the blueline during the anthem, etc. I guess Shinkaruk is going to get a chance to be one of the big boys in the scrum now....

I'm hoping that size I have for him is out of date. I mean, 5'3"? At that height, that could be HIM in the picture above, for all we know.

#16, Spokane:
Reid Gow - Defence, 5'11" 165lbs

At #19, Prince George uses Tri-City's pick, so we can assume their trade was like the Edmonton-Chilliwack one, a swap of first rounders in exchange for probably a later pick as well. The Cougars pick:
Josh Smith - Defence, 5'10" 170lbs
08-09: Red Deer Rebels Black (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- no stats
08-09: Red Deer Rebels Black (AMBHL AAA bantam - PLF) -- 2gp-0g-1a-1pts-8pim

07-08: Red Deer Rebels Black (AMBHL AAA bantam) -- 33gp-2g-5a-7pts-111pim

Smith is said to be one of the tougher customers in the draft as well. Tough guy to play against in his own zone.

#20, Saskatoon:
Ryan Olsen - Center, no ht/wt

08-09: Abbotsford Hawks (Western Bantam Championships) -- 4gp-1g-0a-1pts-20pim

That's three forwards from the B.C. champion Abbotsford Hawks picked in the first round - Siebert, Sward, and Clayton.

That's it for the first round....

Myers

WHL announced today there would be no suspension to Tyler Myers.

Just so we're clear on how playoff supplemental discipline works in the WHL world:

 - flip the opposing bench the bird = one game suspension

 - put a vulnerable opponent through the boards from behind = no suspension.

Got it.

NHL Tuesday

No news from the WHL, where we're still waiting to hear whether Tyler Myers will be suspended....

But, how about those two game sevens in the NHL last night? In Washington, the Capitals completed the comeback from a 3-1 series deficit (the 21st team in NHL history to do that) by beating the Rangers 2-1 on a late third period goal from the old geezer, Sergei Fedorov. 

Excitement, eh...but that was nothing compared to what happened in New Jersey about a half hour later. The Devils had a 3-2 lead with less than a minute and a half left in the game.....and lost 4-3. In regulation. The Hurricanes tied it up with 80 seconds left, and then got the winner with 32 seconds on the clock. That has to be one of the most dramatic turnarounds in NHL history....from 80 seconds away from advancing in the playoffs, to being eliminated. (Vice-versa, of course, if you're a Hurricanes fan!)

Remember, the Hurricanes also won game 4 of the series on a goal with 0.2 seconds left in regulation. For the Devils to lose two games of a series like that in the final minute....

Still with the Devils, the end of their season means the speculation can begin afresh about the future of coach Brent Sutter. The rumours have been circulating for a while that Sutter does not plan to return to the Devils next season and will instead come back to the WHL and his Rebels. We'll see.

And back to the Capitals-Rangers for a second....why is it that in the NHL, 21 teams have come back from being down 3-1 in a series, but only two have ever come back from 3-0? If you're going to win three in a row to come back from 3-1, is it that incredibly more difficult to win four in a row? Apparently it is.
