On Boisvert's list or in general?
Boisvert has him quite low. Anyway, will listen to the podcast during the commute to get the story.

Or taking a dump in it?Just stirrin’ the pot.
Is that the brown bear club opposed to the polar bear club?Maybe both.
I sure hope so. And I hope Anaheim takes a d too because I think CBJ takes a forward (probably Lindstrom).He's going two to Chicago
Last time I heard him, he had cooled off on him and didn't think he had that much offensive upside. I also heard another scout saying that he didn't have especially good playoffs. But otherwise most scouts seems to love him, and he's RHD.Boisvert has him quite low. Anyway, will listen to the podcast during the commute to get the story.

He watched easily 100000 times more prospects minutes than I do, so I'm not going to compare my knowledge of prospects that I have through watching 10-15 minutes of clips and reading a few articles with him watching a large number of full games.Boisvert scouted for a couple of years for one team in the Q. He’s about as “knowledgable” as the rest of us here. At least Grant actually worked for an NHL team.
I don't find him arrogant. He is the first one to say that he has blown a lot of predictions through the years. If you want arrogance without substance then look no further than McCagg. There is no hill too small for him not to fight and die on. He is beyond petty.I don't give him any more credit than the other amateur scouts, sometimes he's right but other times he's spectacularly wrong. The nicer thing about him is that he doesn't follow consensus, somewhat like Button. But I find him to also be a bit arrogant.

McCagg is definitely arrogant. I do appreciate Boisvert self-awareness for his misses, and understanding what he missed at the time. Boisvert has a bit of i-know-better-than-you attitude that I find annoying with everyone that disagree with him.I don't find him arrogant.

Cmon he does endless scouting from his parents basement.Boisvert scouted for a couple of years for one team in the Q. He’s about as “knowledgable” as the rest of us here. At least Grant actually worked for an NHL team.
You know why he can be a non conformist, because he doesn’t have to feel the repercussions of getting canned for his stupidityWhat I like about Boisvert is that he has strong opinions and stands on them.
In the world of hockey, especially in the draft domain, where conformity is more important than anything else, I like people who are willing to make predictions and stand on them.
Boisvert's not perfect, obviously. But he made claims that were seen as insane at the time, that have since become prophetic.
He has a lot of hits, and while he does have misses, he's the best at identifying prospects with talent where we have access to his thoughts.
A laughable claim as always, but feel free to run with it.You know why he can be a non conformist, because he doesn’t have to feel the repercussions of getting canned for his stupidity
“the snake” is a genius in his own mind -Tulsky is a non hockey guy, never played the game at any level, never even watched the game but used his PHD background applying anaytics for DNA sequencing towards hockey analytics and Canes hired him.A laughable claim, but feel free to run with it.
