Joe Dumars just drafted for the wings and he got a dude from Georgia.
State or country???
The country of Georgia.You know how Joe D likes to do it.
This is the closest I could find as far as primer for where Michigan prospects might fall:

I think Compher and Downing are generally expected to be 2nd rounders and Motte a 3rd-4th rounder with other guys coming in toward the end of the draft
why not ask this question in the NHL draft open thread?

Gary Bettman is a cornball brother.
nice
Seth Jones is currently falling. A week ago he was the consensus #1 pick.
Press are gonna give the Hawks a run for their money with Jones and Weber
Can someone who is informed in this thread please talk about the Wings situation and what we should root for or what happened?
Most likely the best available defenseman, somebody you won't see in Detroit for about 4 years.
Thank you.
Well I was of zero help to you, they went with a LW Anthony Mantha, good talent with Franzen like wandering tendencies.
anyone else getting really tired of Pierre McGuire? He is extra grating this afternoon.
No idea how you are just realizing this now. Maybe you guys aren't exposed to this moron as much in the States, but EVERYONE I know hates him.
I know he is annoying, but usually I can tolerate him. Today he is extra annoying. He is the reason I refuse to watch the NHL on NBC as much as I can in favor of HNiC on the CBC.
I don't understand what that little twerp brings to anything he does for the NHL.
So he was a key part of the back to back title teams. Came to find that out after his annoying display of "commentating" during the '09 Finals culminated in him celebrating on the ice with Penguin players and management after Game 7.
Non Draft related but damn Phil Coke is horrible.
HUGE trade for NJ. Cory Schneider to NJ for the 9th pick.
for NJ when Marty retires but overall that trade is a steal for the Devils. I think the Canucks just made a massive mistake. Luongo won't be there forever.
Vancouver tried to trade to Edmonton but they were looking for the #7, a 2nd, and a decent young winger. Didn't want to trade within the division.
Not sure which ones yet, but the Wings and Sharks traded picks.
Edit: Wings 18th pick for SJ's 20th and 58th
Briere or LeCaviler. My money is on Vinny
Anthony Mantha.
Scored 50 goals in the QMJHL this season. His grandfather is 4-time Stanley Cup champ Andre Pronovost.
- Taken from NHL twitter feed
Looking forward to seeing him in Hockeytown!
Mantha led the Quebec league in goals last season. The only 50 goal scorer in this draft. That's pretty damn good.
J.T. Compher goes #35 to Buffalo!
draft picks. That's a steal for the Leafs
Andrew Copp goes to the Jets in the 4th round.
Nolan De Jong to the Wild in the 7th round.
Marc McNulty just got drafted by the Wings. Wonder if there's any relation to his famous uncle "Jimmy"
