While I agree some posts are over the top, I don’t really see this as being significantly different than other years where posters fall in love with certain players around our pick and proceed to overrate/inflate them. Usually, those players are not the ones chosen, but we still hear about it one, two, or ten years later.
Iginla is right near the spot we’re picking. Looking at Bob’s list, you’d be happy with anyone from 7-12. People really don’t want us to take the 10th ranked prospect with the 9th pick? Come on now. That’s even sillier than wanting to take him because he’s an Iginla.
