yeah, but he also admits that he could be flat out wrong, and that there could be more to his game.

the reason that he questions the pick is the reason many people loved the Kanzig pick: you can't teach size. Breen falling through 7 rounds of the draft without getting picked was the reason Wilson put up a red flag in the first place.

Again, its great that he is a regular AHL'er, that we got for nothing. But I don't cheer for the Heat; I cheer for the Calgary Flames.

Until he suits up in the NHL, the jury is out.

its a simple metric, and I don't understand why people get their hackles up about it? You draft to get NHL players, not AHL players...
