Bob MacMillan
Let's land a player like one of those!

Crazy part of that Sakic pick, Joe wasn’t even Quebec’s first selection in that draft.
At 9, they took Bryan Fogarty - he had just broken Bobby Orr’s junior record for goals (38) and set a Canadian Junior record for points from a defenseman (140).
Unfortunately, drug and alcohol issues saw him out of the NHL by 1995 and out of life by 2002.
