I still dont get the move however I like everything ive read on Dehaan But hey we got JT!!!!!!!!
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 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.
I did notice the nod, but I figured it was to the Islanders table. 😛
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.
There weren't any good Dmen after Ellis until later in the 1st. So that forced Snow to go up in the thought that either Buffalo of Florida were planning on taking a puck moving Dman. I'm so glad they got him.
I remember watching him play for kemptville 73's!!
martinek is more durable than de glass
i remember when they announced the trade i was so excited about it solely because i wanted them to take Krieder, could you imagine krieder on jt's wing in blue and orange?
they got the better dman with kulikov anyway
