Devs3cups Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Satisfied with this pick. Well-spoken, team player, quick. Fits right in with the philosphy here. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 It’s what we needed to do with the 17th pick. Let’s see how he develops. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicomo Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 So glad BPA ended up being a defenseman. Worked out well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

devlman Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) Really like the pick. Great skater, moves the puck well. Love the intangibles I'm hearing about his leadership and attitude. Edited June 23, 2018 by devlman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derlique Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Never thought in a million years he would be there at #17. For sure, I thought Shero would trade down, but I don't think he could pass him up. LD and RW is where NJ is very shallow. He won't make the team this year, but a year or two down the road.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 The obvious pick to make at the time. Love it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonDreads Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Love it, love it, LOVE IT. I had Smith rated as a Top 10 pick in this draft, never thought he would be there at 17th. So satisfying to get this kid there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Pretty ecstatic about the pick. Guys who've done what he's done turn into successful NHLers at a very good rate. You usually don't get those at 17. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS-SS Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Nice pick!! Happy about it really! I also like the name, Ty Smith! Has a nice ring to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeControl Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 ... most of his video highlights are operating at the blue line snapping wrist shots, like 100 of them lol.. seems to have a sneaky seeing eye shot like severson.. would like to see him in the defensive end..along the boards word is he has quick feet and tight gaps on D.. that's good.. also IQ start the creatine and protein powder now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derlique Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Wow. Smith had 194 shots in the regular season, which is almost three shots a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonDreads Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 This kid was a possession beast last year, not only one of the best defensemen in the WHL last year but also one of the best defensemen in then CHL in 2018. I think we got a real good one here, kid reminds me a lot of Morgan Rielly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
