Well to be fair, we don’t really know that. And we likely don’t really know what people thought of Forsberg at the time either. And to be blunt, we don’t even really know that about Bedard.
Magic beans are magic beans. Some are more likely than others to grow tall and we can make educated guesses regarding such, and maybe what you mean is even todays Flames don’t seem to have a prospect that is equivalent to Forsbergs value at the time, maybe, I guess? But I think I’m taking the Flames package I am presenting here if I’m the Blackhawks. Marketing wiz kid be damned, because my opinion is that winning is what matters more than marketable stars.
