A Look At The Bruins 2013 NHL Entry Draftees

The 2013 NHL Entry Draft has come and gone. If you paid attention during the weekend, Bob McKenzie tweeted out that Boston would looking to move Tyler Seguin and it sent Twitter and the pink hats into a tizzy. What came out of it? Nothing. Bob McKenzie did his annual "huge hockey trade" tweet and was dead wrong, just like he was dead wrong about Iginla and just like he was dead wrong about when the lockout would be over. 

AKA Bob McKenzie sucks. 

Also, the Bruins didn't have a first round pick this year because they sent it to Dallas for this guy:

After the jump, let's take a look at the Bruins draft picks...

Round 2, Pick #60 – Linus Arnesson
Linus

Height/Weight: 6'2", 190 lbs
Position: D
Shoots: L

From eliteprospects.com:

A rather defensive minded defenseman with good mobility and size. Arnesson is not flashy at all, but always gets the job done. Has good positioning, makes easy and smart plays and rarely puts himself or his teammates in complicated situations. Has some offensive upside, and will join the rush at times, but it is his overall sound defensive game that makes him a stand out prospect.

Round 3, Pick #90 – Peter Cehlarik

Kid is 6'6" and is 18? Good god. Looking at Elite Prospects, he's slated to play at Harvard University this year. So he's smart and a giant. Good on him. 

One of DOY's favorite, Kirk Luedeke, did a quick analysis on Sherman:
