Color me excited at the idea of drafting a little less horrible version of McCrappon.

Is there anything more (frank)ed up in professional sports culture than The Draft? I guess, making a movie about it. But still.

Yeah it is a little late to sign him, we're eliminated. Idiots.

It's not going to win a (frank)ing Oscar, but for a different angle on how professional sports drafts work, it was pretty good.

Hasn't even been a year, and you're giving up on him?

It was an "ok fair enough" kind of Ah, not an "I don't believe you" kind.

I was kidding...it was just a little sarcasm.

having the 26th pick over the 27th doesn't exactly fills me with joy at the moment...

A pick over 20 in the first round isn't exciting, especially since everyone has been saying this year is a weak draft.

As for McCarron, I'm willing to give him time, but he has looked horrible so far.

Ya and he only had 34 in the season.

It's his first year of junior and he was playing bottom 6. His game isn't about being an offensive juggernaut. Says he wants to play like Lucic, said player only had 19 points in his first year of junior.

I'm not ready to write him off. Need to see what he brings to at least the AHL, if not NHL with the type of player he is, juniors isn't a good measuring stick.

yeah 19 at 17.

He had 68 after he was drafted.

Not saying he's a bust but he's a long way from the NHL

Lucic didn't put up any numbers until his last season of Jr.

Maybe he'll stay in London another season, on a less packed team and play more

either that, or the Habs will have him graduate in AHL at 19

It's hard to tell in the wake of last night, a lot of people are giving up on everything in the lows of defeat.

And ya, I agree on the draft position. One of the downsides to making a run.
