Pat White

Post by gopher5 »

I've seen Patrick White play and I would have to say that he is a great talent!! Anyways I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas as to where he will be drafted in the upcoming NHL draft? I've heard from multiple sources that he could go in the late part of the first round (around the 25 overall pick).

Pat White going to the Gophers. Wore #5 I believe. Does that = gopher5?

thats kind of what I thought, but he wore #6 at GR I believe.

also I don't think someone like Pat White in the position he's in has the time to spend on here talking himself up, not that he would need to talk himself up anyways.

Pat White wouldn't waste his time self-promoting. He's got too much class. He'll likely go in the top 20 of the upcoming draft based on his performance at the U-18 Worlds.

Not saying that he would, but why not just throw out a question like that? Isn't self-promoting a ton and find out what some people think about ya. Or even better, people say he would never do that and he's a great guy on top of hearing what they have to say about your skills.

I do know that. But who doesn't like hearing stuff about themselves? And even better, stuff like you said?

I definitely don't think you're Pat White because he wouldn't be on other posts bashing kids from his home town

I have heard a lot of talk that the Wild are interested in taking Patrick. That would be a great opportunity for him. He is a very skilled player, and if he can stay healthy, has a legitimate shot at a pro career.

I know Montreal, Ottawa, NYR, Minnesota, St. Louis, and Colorado don't feel that way.

Well, thats interesting considering I have talked to atleast one scout from all of the teams mentioned. We'll see I guess.

Don't ya love it when people talk and can't back it up? I think it's even better when people talk and can back it up, but don't tell anyone until they try to call them on it and then it gets pushed back in their face. Well done.
