What a bunch of morons amirite?
I say save the excitement for a player that's really special, not this flash in the pan.

Yup, when you look at draft eligible prospects there seems to be one a decade that is really special.
70's Gretzky
80's Lemieux
90's Lindros
00's Crosby
10's Mcdiver
20's (so far) Bedard
Not like it's just a typical 1st overall here, this kid is special. He deserved the media attention at the world juniors.
