I'd like to hear how the Erixon deal has altered the scouts approach into this year's draft. With Erixon and Aulie now out of the system, the once thought "deep" farm system in terms of blueliners, now appears to look awfully thin outside of Brodie. Does a deal this late (Erixon) in the season and this close to the draft, send scouts scrambling back to the boards - or were they prepared for something of this nature. Like others have said, a "behind the scenes" with the scouts would be much appreciated.
Also I'd like to hear from our scouts their views on our farm system - as we rarely ever hear from them, and it is usually our General Manager filling us in on their opinions. Who do they feel has made a jump they didn't see coming? Who took a step back? Where do they stand on our goaltending situation in the AHL?
These guys are the guys behind the scenes, but often mold what we see with the parent club.
