It looks like a solid pick in the fifth round.
Well, obviously you do need to be reminded. You seem to not understand that our prospects are regarded as being bottom of the barrel, and for good reason. We need to remain guarded in our hopes and expectations of these kids. Keep the odds of them making it in mind, and then keep the needs of the team in mind as well. And most importantly, wait until they show their skills can translate. The Q is nothing like professional hockey so all the points in that universe don't amount to a hill of beans. A lot of these high scoring players from the Q rarely make an impact in the pro ranks.
