Prospect Ramblings: Tippett, Necas making the cut for different reasons
The 2017 NHL Entry Draft was supposed to be a weak one, but already two early first-round picks are impressing us faster than anticipated.

Summer development camps, trading for Eichel and more...
***
Welcome back to the ramblings. After taking some time off to decompress from the draft, Brendan, Zach and I will bring you ramblings on a weekly cadence for the rest of the summer as prospect news starts to slow down.
This week is actually one of the more action-packed of the summer as development camps are going on around the league.
Connor McDavid impressed in his first scrimmage, scoring five goals. Generational player. Jack Eichel, on the other hand, drew 17,000 fans to his first public scrimmage, but didn’t even record a point as Sam Reinhart stole the show! Bust. Honestly though, the McEichel hasn’t missed a beat, post draft, and while it is hard to not talk about them, we will do our best to refrain from updating you on every nice play they pull in a non-contact practice against a seventh round pick.

Rossy’s NHL Draft 1st Round Thoughts
The opening round of the NHL Draft is in the books and boy, was that a dandy of a day!
Saturday, June 27
Friday of the NHL Draft was one of the more entertaining opening rounds that I can recall at the draft. We had trades – with the Boston Bruins to thank for that, we had some unsuspecting bigs – again, Boston to thank, and plenty of drama left for the remaining six rounds today. With the second round set to begin at 10am EST, I wanted to quickly check in on my thoughts from day one.
