[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 2908663, member: 2012"] During the draft they said the forerunners were Toronto and the NY Rangers. And here's something else you might find interesting... [COLOR=DarkOrange][SIZE=3][B]Flyers select "What's his name" at No. 22[/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] [B]TSN.ca Staff[/B] [I]6/24/2006 10:47:41 PM[/I] [B](TSN.CA) - Upon further review, the Philadelphia Flyers picked Gatineau forward Claude Giroux with the 22nd overall selection in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft on Saturday.[/B] Flyers' general manager Bob Clarke got the laugh of the day when he stood at the podium and said the Flyers were proud to select, "What's his name again?" Scouts quickly filled Clark in and he was able to complete the announcement. Giroux is used to going unnoticed. He played Tier II hockey in Ontario two years ago after going undrafted by the OHL. He signed with Gatineau last year and made the QMJHL rookie all star team after scoring 103 points - tops among rookies and 11th overall. His 11-game points streak was the 2nd longest rookie points streak in CHL this season. The International Scouting Service says, "This shifty playmaking winger is one of the more skilled and talented forwards available in the draft, and has risen to 27th in our final rankings. A little on the light side as far as weight is concerned but has a knack of getting free in the offensive zone. He attacks opposing D with lots of speed and is very slippery to defend against. Agility, mobility and his vision are his greatest strengths." Bob McKenzie's take: "His agent Larry Kelly says this guy has Doug Gilmour's heart and vision. And scouts agree with him." [/QUOTE]
