radoran Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Niinimaa wasn't horrible. Got them McGillis and a 2nd in a trade.Pitkanen wasn't horrible. He was a 40-point defenseman for the Flyers and has stayed near that level. Got Smith and Lupul for him. Lupul then begat Pronger.Jussi Timonen? Fifth rounder. What were you expecting?Lehtrovouri is 24. From where I sit, jury's potentially still out but the guy is a fourth rounder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyercanuck Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 If you took the word "Finnish" out of the title it would make more sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radoran Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 There are fewer "surprises" in the draft coming from Europe these days. There aren't a lot of Lundqvists, Zetterbergs or Timonens dropping that far in the draft. It's too well scouted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyFan Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 no, not really... Kimmo was not drafted by the Flyers. He was drafted by the Kings in the 10th...Understood, however; perhaps it was worth trying to get his brother earlier... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
