Looking at that draft we also took Ramholt over Bergeron, Pavelski and a few other good players, and it still doesn't sting.

Oh really? You put it all in perspective so nicely.
Yes....lots of teams passed on Weber and other great players through the years. I think the poster might be alluding to the fact that we chose ramholt (a swiss dude ranked #17 in European skaters) over Weber (ranked #42 in NA; a guy in our back yard while we had a GM who liked would probably be happier picking WHL products).
