I keep laughing at your posts. They're so mean, but it's to a Canucks fan, so I can't help it.

I don't like the odds of the Islanders fixing Ho-sang.

When it comes to canucks fans, I can let the 'mean' fly.

trade up to get Ho-Sang.

I think that's going to pay off for the Isle, but I also thought Kabanov would end up playing

if the Isles indeed take Ho-Sang, that means that 5 picks before the Flames pick again, the following players are still available: Barbashev, Kempe, McKeown, Lemieux, Dougherty, MacInnis, Kirkland, Karlsson. Lots of good options to choose from.

How on Earth has Barbashev slipped so far? Amazing.

At least this saves us endless discussion of whether the Flames should have taken Ho-Sang over whoever they end up picking at #34

You know, the THN draft preview was pretty good this year...

I was secretly hoping the flames took a chance on him, but fine to see another team not in the west taking instead.

Okay, back to the matter at hand: I like the Ho-Sang pick here. 2nd pick in the round for the NYI equals very little risk. Let's be honest, this pick might be risky but with Dal Colle already in the bag, there is far more upside and far less risk here.

Damn, Ho-Sang's girlfriend.


Wang just wanted to draft a guy whose name rhymes with his (yes, I know they don't rhyme).

Hmmm, interesting that they moved up to make sure they got him. His skill is obvious, they must be pretty confident he can come around maturity wise.
