Leduc -- really good player, kind of has a build similar to Steven Delisle...not as good with the puck as Delisle but much meaner. He went higher ythan I expected but hes a good prospect.
Farrell -- one of my favourite players in the draft, I had a feeling CB was taking him, wasnt really a big secret.
Carrier -- I actually dont know much about Carrier. He wasnt on the CSR list and was added, im assuming by CB considering they drafted him.
Cochrane -- he put up a ppg this year in AAA but has had 2 injury plauged seasons. He is more of a worker than a natural offensive player.
McInnes -- not a big fan to be honest. He has good size though but is very skinny, im skeptical the 185 is legit, but my main concern is his skating.
Boutilier -- I like his game, he is a very fast skater, always plays with energy, his finishing ability is ok, he is a good kid, hard worker and has a lot of character, he was the captain in Halifax.
Carrier -- An all-around offensive player...short but thick, skating is just ok, kind of hot and cold. One game he would really stand out and the next he would blend in, but he has good skills for round 9.
Marcoux-Tortillet - Dont like the pick...he isnt very skilled and he isnt a very good skater and he isnt a defensive guy...so its hard to imagine what kind of role he would play as a 5'11 defensemen.
Symes -- Showed good progress this season. Has size and his feet are actually ok for a bigger kid. Id have to say he is probably ahead of Herrett and Larade in terms of the chance of making your team, in my opinion.
McQuaid -- I liked what I saw of McQuaid, he is big, but is raw. He needs some coaching, for a 12th rd pick i think he will do fine in camp, but with Veronneau, I cant see him making it, maybe next season.

He is 5'06 but hes 155 lbs and growing and he isnt scared. He is actually more gritty than a lot of larger kids. I was watching him in the playoffs and he was laying down to block shots. The kid is far from soft...it was a home run pick in my opinion.

Hes probably one of my favourite Caper prospects since Culligan.
And both times heading into the draft I had strong gut feelings that the Eagles would take them.

Did the Eagles get any toughness out of those draft picks?
