Anyone know what the Raiders are looking for in this draft? Personally I would like to see a 19 year old Euro goalie but this is very unlikely.

They will be looking for a defensive defenseman to take the place of Ruopp.
Raiders have the 37th & 97th pick. With Leon being a lock to return, they will likely only select their 1st round pick. With Jonas being both an overage & an import, he may be traded or released.

According to the Small Thoughts At Large (http://smallatlarge.blogspot.ca/) blog:
"Knutsen has signed in his native Norway with the Valerenga club, so he will not be back as an overager." - STAL, June 16 Import Draft rundown
As far as the 37th pick goes, we are deep at forward and goal, so I'm hoping for a quality defenseman.

With the 37th pick, Raiders selected 1995-born Tomas Andrlik, 6'0, 176 lb. left defense, from the Czech republic.

Sounds like he plays more like Petr Svoboda than like Frantisek Kaberle.
Certainly hope he reports.
Can he speak English?
Does Dave speak Czech?
Maybe Andrlik can speak Manson.
Heh.
