have to agree the nepotism stuff is a little fishy. don't think Sutter will overpay his boy though, but we'll see
always love the comments at the bottom of the TSN stories, like the one guy who says its going to be a long year for the Flames because they had a bad draft...yep because every other team is going to have three or four draftees step right in to starring roles this season

Maybe I am the only one, but I find drafting your son to be a solid conflict of interest.
Sutter lost a lot of credibility in my mind for that pick. Trust in Sutter and all that BS just went out the window for me.
Disgusting. [/b][/quote]
The sense from the article I read was that it wasn't Sutter's choice. The scouting team asked both the player and Darryl if they would be OK with it - this suggests it was not Darryl's idea.
I don't think its a big deal. If it was earlier in the draft sure, but at that spot - bah - no biggie.
