Devilsfan118 Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 (edited) No. 61 (second round) - D Nikita Okhotyuk, Ottawa 67s (OHL) Okhotyuk is a big, physical defender, weighing in at 6-1 and 194 pounds. He’s not a big scorer, posting just 17 points in 56 regular-season games in 2018-19. The Devils’ prospect pool features several offensive, puck-moving defensemen, so Okhotyuk represents the other end of the spectrum. The Devils have tried to add those types of players to the blue line (thing Steven Santini, Dalton Prout, Eric Gryba), so the team clearly sees some value in them. That’s what Okhotyuk projects to be. https://www.nj.com/devils/2019/06/meet-the-devils-2019-draft-class-jack-hughes-nikita-okhotyuk-graeme-clarke-headline-11-picks.html Edited June 23, 2019 by Devilsfan118 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, that would require him to care about how he pronounces anyone’s name, and all appearances are that he does not lol. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevsMan84 Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Daneyko was on NHL radio on Sirius XM this morning around 8:30. I swear he was drunk when he called in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was 8:30 so that might have been for him like 5:30 is for most of us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Seems pretty clear that they spent a few picks hoping to find Brandon Carlo. Hopefully it goes better than Conte’s quest for the next Milan Lucic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
