Imagine if Erixon never demanded that trade. Imagine if we still had the fifth rounder in 2011. Imagine if Feaster then decided to wait one more round before selecting Gaudreau. Would he have still been available at that pick???
Thanks Tom!

I recall reading something about Weisbrod being at Boston's table when Calgary selected Gaudreau. He stated the entire table was disappointed because they had him pegged for their next pick.
So yes, thanks Tom!
