If it was always hockey decisions..... Let's hope MB and Molson don't care about the French thing anymore.

Wish we would have started with that
Ranked a second rounder in the Hockey News
This is classic go for the home run in late first round kind of pick
He made a bad mistake but worth the gamble
As the report said , if your willing to risk a first , he is your guy
Total skill package is there , if the OHL had a season no reason why he wouldn’t be a top rookie
London is a development machine
Get him the proper help and let him do some community work to show that he is committed to being a better human being
He would of been gone by our second pick , just like Romy had a guarantee in the second
By telling teams don’t pick me , shows how embarrassed he felt for what he did
He probably needed a year off to get back on track
The shit that went on with players in the 80’s and 90’s is way worse than this
I heard some doozy stories
Sure just like Robidas Island or the skin rash on Hossa
Ya but how many of those teams made it to the finals this year?
Hoffman/DeAngelo
Would most likely mean we aren't signing anyone else as we would have a bit of room free the following year for Suzuki's new deal or just a bit of room in case PD decided to come down to planet earth. Still wanted Hamilton/Landeskog, feels like we might be targeting the cheaper duo though.

Just had someone write a post on my FB about since they have a daughter they are extremely disappointed with the pick. I get it, I also don't understand how upset some fans are since I don't have a daughter and just a wild 7 year old son. At the same time, they are just securing his rights, he won't be playing with us for at least a couple of years and hopefully he has enough time to make amends until then. I would have traded a second+ to swap up in the 2nd to pick him but this club must really think they scored something picking him up 20+ spots earlier than where he should have gone.

Must’ve missed the anonymous GM who told Friedman, UFAs have less interest than ever w signing in Canada due to a combination of taxes + social media pressure + pandemic restrictions

The kid behaved like an entitled little douchebag (playing the victim is especially galling), but this will blow over if he matures and gets his shit together. Think of Mario Lemieux...
