Which is almost exactly what I said but perhaps my wording didn't make it clear that this is WHY I didn't like the pick either:
"Hunter had a great junior year because of his size that he used to overpower his undersized opponents. It was a pick based on old school big=good mentality."
I didn't like either pick. Doesn't mean I think somehow the Flames made a larger error than every other club that also passed over Point. There's no special connection between Point and the Flames.
