I do remebmer the Morris pick being off the board and that worked out so hopefully Poirier proves them right.

I would like to trade a roster player for a 2nd round pick any time now.

Get me some McCoshen.

I like a ll 3 picks but i agree with "Estrada". It's becoming more and more noticeable that if you don't "toe the company line" you are told to shut up.

It's not just the first round that is deep, it goes into the 2nd round as well. Guys in the 2nd round are potential 1st rounders etc.

Well the 28th pick was "ranked" higher than the 22nd. Pretty obvious they thought Poirier had a better chance of going before 28th then Klimchuk did.

Perceived? I don't think so.

No ones telling anyone to shut up. People are free to post their opinions and when they do they should expect others to disagree. Where has anyone been told to shut up?

Every draft for the Flames is scary. At least they haven't gripped up a Keetley/Irving/Krahn yet.

You just seem so critical of guys that haven't even suited up yet. Monahan > Horvat, even if it was just 3 positions later.

Continue to voice opinon though, sorry if I stifled any of that.

No, but the mockery is getting a little ridiculous. It doesn't go the other way, we're treated like we're idiots for not trusting a management group that's done nothing.

Weak draft for the USHL. They had 6 first rounders last year, just 1 this year.

That's fine and all and I do agree but it doesn't mean they couldnt have leveraged their "sleeper" pick to get another one later in the draft to drop a few spots... That's my issue.

Oh come on. Both sides mock the other. Don't turn yourself into a victim b/c someone disagrees with you on a hockey board

Agreed. We had jerseys ready with the names of each of our 3 picks, so I have to think we had them all rated very highly. Most of the teams toward the end of the round just had blank jerseys.
