If he ever makes the team we'll need to have Pospisil Popsicle promo nights.

I watched a video of the Flames post draft and they said it took half a season for Martin Pospisil to figure out he didn't have to fight to prove he can play in his league.

This is a Zach Fischer-esque pick, but worse. Really do not like this one.

Gotta say you're wrong about this

He led his USHL team in points per game, and is +8 compared to most of his teammates being -5 or worse

253! pims means he's gotta have a unique skillset as well.

Not who I would have taken (Toni Utunen) but he was one of the three guys I would have liked here. (Douglas being the other)

Hockey works in cycles. It was the trap, then size, then skill, now it's speed. Flames forseeing the future cycle: Revenge of the Goon
