I believe Zeev will spend next year in Colorado for his final NCAA season and then sign his contract to start the next season on his NHL Rookie season. There were 2 scouting reports that had him 3rd and 4th and another at 7th. This kid is highly intelligent, has superstar skills. With Zeev and the Faber Tooth Tiger...man! Lock em' down, blow em' up!
Both times it was for (likely) a mid-late 3rd round pick. EDM passed on the top goalie, moved back and still picked the wrong guy when they passed on Wyatt Johnston.
Definitely not mad abt this pick arguably 2nd best defenseman in this draft I’ve seen some say the best. I was hoping for Inginla or Eiserman but a Faber Brodin and Buium core will be crazy.
Well done Billy, put this one in the WIN column 👏👏👏 I'm just here to say that....the rambling on about what you were personally doing at the time of the draft (nobody cares bro) got old at about the 2 minute mark, so im on to find some better content. peace.
Now to shed BG's Pet Passengers with the, zero effort required, Money's In The Bank contracts so we can get on with the future greats attempting to win the damned Stanley Cup!
Buium at 12 will be looked at as one of the drafts biggest steals in a few years, this kid is just special... He'll captain the USA WJC team and try to repeat as NCAA National Champions, then he'll sign his ELC and join the Wild in April (with Yurov) No chance Buium stays his 3rd year at Denver, all he needs to do is get stronger this season, nothing else to prove in College... The big question now is, what do they do with Middleton and his supposed 4 x $4 extension waiting for July 1st to sign?
@@travzimmerman1340 I’m pumped for this pick because I know he is an actual “do it all” type player. But then they talk about how he needs work on his defensive game. It’s wild. Like are we watching the same player here? I saw this somewhere that stuck out to me. He defends like a Gustav Forsling. Great at cutting down angles and stick work. He isn’t afraid to make plays through contact either. His defensive game is already pretty good. Not to mention his spectacular Offensive game. I think we got the steal of the draft personally. I could be a bit biased because I am a Denver fan though. Also. 2 years out? Lol. He could come over at the end of this upcoming season and get games. He is not 2-3 years out.
Its a no brainer to pick best available for what your team needs..Still think he needs a Stramel resurrection to get a resemblance of "brilliance " Running scared as far as I can see..Trade a pick to move up one spot with Eiserman still on the board...?????
I have been hearing and reading year after year how the Wild have the best prospect pool. But where are they? Why is it year after year we still have no studs other than Kaprizov? I call major cap on this notion we have all these elite prospects waiting in the wings. Now, the only one i do believe is that is Zeev. But even Jesper has not done anything.
Do you not know how fucking good Danila Yurov is? 😂 any clue how good Liam Öhgren will be? Not to mention Boldy, Faber and Rossi all hit, with more growth to come. Just wait one damn season my guy, they’re on the way lol
@@tegridy27 Boldy is already playing. Been playing for multiple seasons. Rossi is trash. That is why they were looking to trade him. Those other guys are all just names brought up that have done anything in the league. Lol.
@@WheresWaldo05you aren’t smart at all and you obviously don’t know a thing about hockey. Rossi scored 20 goals and 40 some points as a rookie. That is extremely impressive. You don’t have a clue what you’re talking about
The 3rd rounder from next year's draft shouldn't be expected to play til the 2028 season, and even then, odds are far worse than a coin flip that he'll even make the team at all. Worth.
@@capnstems5026 Whenever you trade up 1 spot it leaves open the question of did you just give away a pick for nothing. It's like the Vikings with McCarthy. Maybe somebody would have jumped us maybe not.
He adds nothing to the Wild. Wild don't need another left hand shot. Wild don't need another guy who doesn't take the body. Wild don't need another small(ish) defenseman. Not happy about the pick at all.
How is he a bust?? He’s has 388pts in 480 games and scored over 40 goals his second year?… He’s had some injuries and mental health problems but he’s def not a bust. How are Mn Wild fans so uninformed?
@@italian1ist you like stats? In the last 4 years he’s played only 175 games out of 328. Slightly better than a coin flip. His RECENT stats unimpressive and over those 4 seasons he’s averaged a -14. I hope he can turn it around dude but one 40 goal season 8 years ago is unlikely to happen again. I don’t wanna give up any young prospects for this guy at any price.
Boring hey YO Guerin where are the drafted centers we need to win a damn face off? Draft picks either work or not just any other sport but the need was Centers Was this a weak draft or what
Yeah if they did = how's that working out in the AHL = bullshit Free agent after free agent = BG = BS!! Period I don't know nothing think I've seen more than enough!!

So jacked for this pick! Probably the most excited I have ever been for a Wild draft pick. Rossi or Wallstedt are the only ones close.
The last time,Judd Bracket traded up
Was with Edmonton, for Walsted
Judd is working his magic, this could be his second best trade ever!!!
Both times it was for (likely) a mid-late 3rd round pick. EDM passed on the top goalie, moved back and still picked the wrong guy when they passed on Wyatt Johnston.
@@SeanCosgrove1 the pick to Edmonton was there number 44th
Pick and there 20th pick

Agreed. I didn't care for that, but it was no big deal either.
@@TristanandIsolt Locked on Wild is my preferred spot, and there's a few of us over there that actually know our shit, so it's nice!

Probably the wrong show and wrong "network" for you. That's half of this channel - friendly banter.

NHL needs to loosen up, get their GMs opportunity to speak to fans as they announce pick, then give some love to their draft picks NFL NBA style 😊
I think you’re underrating his defensive ability here.
These dolts didn't know who Zeev was until he was selected. Neither one have ever even put on skates.

These guys aren’t experts at hockey they aren’t very well informed
amazing draft by Billy and Judd
Great show guys

Colorado got the best player in the draft when they drafted Nabokov in the 2nd round.
Billy looked nervous,( looks like his clothes are shrinking also).
If Laine is cheap and healed physically and mentally it could be a huge pick up

Faber and Rossi just hit the ground recently and Yurov will be here in a couple years hopefully.

Did we really have to give up a 3rd round pick to move up 1 spot?
The more I listen it seems we did.
It's to prevent any other team from trading up and grabbing him. Worth it to get a guy you value highly.
Yes, and had Danny Briere known any better, he woulda upped his return to at least a 2nd rounder.....consider the Flyers fleeced.
The 3rd rounder from next year's draft shouldn't be expected to play til the 2028 season, and even then, odds are far worse than a coin flip that he'll even make the team at all.

Should have taken Solberg. Big mistake, allways want this small cool defender when what you need is much more Brodin

How could you think that Buium needs to stay for a junior year after putting up 50 as a freshman...seems a lil far fetched
Just to put on weight. It’s what most ppl think
I hope Billy knows better than to make a splash on Leine because if he continues to be a bust thats how ya get fired as a GM
How is he a bust??

Draft, trade and let go. They'll never get to the Stanley Cup.
hould have taken Solberg. Big mistake, allways want this small cool defender when what you need is much more Brodin
You’re not smart
The wild are a dumpster fire
There has to be a hockey guy better than this guy with curlers in his hair? Is Buium suppose to be just like Dumba?
Absolutely NOTHING like Dumba.
No he’s not like Dumba. He’s like Adam fox
Boring hey YO Guerin where are the drafted centers we need to win a damn face off? Draft picks either work or not just any other sport but the need was Centers
Was this a weak draft or what
The Wild have a plethora of centre prospects.
You don’t know puck
You don’t have a clue
Yeah if they did = how's that working out in the AHL = bullshit
Free agent after free agent = BG = BS!! Period
I don't know nothing think I've seen more than enough!!
