Disagree that they were determined to pick a goalie there. I think goalies were the best player available at that range.
Let's revisit that one in about 5 years.

I knew you would be the one to reply.
Disagree. They were taking a goalie with that pick when Lemieux went earlier. I need to dig it up but I recall reading that.
And yes it takes a while to see but no denying that Macdonald isn't much better now than when he was drafted. That's what I'm saying....very little progression.
