I mean, yeah, that's funny and all, but if Puljujarvi was available at 4 for us, doesn't anyone else think we would have happily taken him too?

OK. I recall Burke using this expression when discussing prospects before the draft took place. He said it an approving fashion, of course.

I assuming he got auto corrected with Gulutzan.

I've seen him compared to Ladd.
The Flames are continuing to build a carbon copy of the Hawks' 2010 cup winning team.

"Gullickson" is actually a Bingo reference

Well yes... they still talked to Columbus to trade up to 3 for Puljujarvi.
I think the biggest stumbling block is Columbus was convinced Dubois wouldn't make it past the Canucks.

That was my assumption too.

If thanks were active you would get one! Billy was a great pitcher and a better guy. Like Riley Tufte, Billy battled diabetes, which makes his career even more impressive.

Keith Tkachuk reminds me of Will Sasso.

Man I am stoked! Can't believe anybody is unhappy with this pick at 6! Had we took him at 4 you might be able to make a case but in my mind he was head and shoulders above the next few guys taken.

The more I watch and hear him the more I like him. So well grounded.
I honestly didn't think he'd be available at 6, so absolutely delighted. He is just what we needed.
Gaudreau, Monahan, Bennett, Tkachuk. The future is bright!
