[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Good haul for Dallas.

[oldschoolcalgary]

gotta be Wallstedt here right?

[Toonage]

Honestly surprised the Flames didn't go Lysell given the Swedish...uh...contingent.

[gilligans_off]

Who’s the kid Buffalo took? Can’t see him on the list.

[Calgary4LIfe]

I am not so worried about the loophole. It is up to Calgary to sell him on Calgary, and to make this organization more successful overall to make players want to play here, period.

Or, you know, he could leave after 2 years and start to make millions of dollars and complete his education whenever he feels like it.

Not something we really should worry about though. You can't avoid players just because of where they play, let the cards fall where they may after. Until then, it should always be BPA.

[Sofa GM]

Interesting for Detroit

Absolutely. But I get the concern

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Alright, that's it. If it's Cossa then Bob is officially a wizard.

[topfiverecords]

You just know the Oilers wanted Cossa, being an Oil King.

Extremely premature I would say. Much less likely for a first round pick to bail on the team that drafted him. (I think. Just going by a very suspect memory) it’s usually later round picks that stay the full 4 years in school no?

Thats a very good point

[getbak]

Interesting.

The last time Yzerman picked a goalie in the first round, that worked out pretty well.

[Toonage]

Cossa went first. Wow.

The kid legitimately had almost no reaction other than a smirk and standing up to hug the fam.

Now take into consideration the NCAA loophole, the Fox incident... the kids from the NY area, going to harvard.... so many red flags paranoia driven for sure.
I sure hope Calgary did big time due diligence on this one and or sign him right away.

Like the pick but I hate the loophole bull#### so would have preferred to stay away from it if possible.

That's all

I’m just saying we have four years to worry about it
We don’t need to start on day 1. Plenty of time ahead for that
