Domi isnt exaclty a powerful marketing tool..

Matthews would be huge.. Tampa marketed the poop outta Stamkos before he even played for them, but they were lucky he panned out to be a superstar.. Domi is good, but not an ideal guy to build your team around.

domi has the excitement of the fans here. very marketable player. they need a winning product if they want to sell more tickets... and a new downtown phoenix location.

storme, domi and whoever they pick ~7th will go a lot further in turning them into a winning team than mathews will.

Plus everybody (media included) seem to be missing out on the fact that Tkachuk is an Arizona boy, being born in Scottsdale while his dad was playing there...

Agree to disagree...

A local from a non-traditional hockey who's going 1st overall is going to catch the attention of fans much more than domi, strome, dvorak etc.. they arent die hard Canadians who follow minor league players.. they are fair-weather fans who need to be convinced to want to go.. its different in TO or Canada because so many good players come from here.

I'm not so sure. I'm gonna have to look up several mock drafts before I can make a decision.

Buddy was saying today that because Reebok isn't going to be the NHL jersey company next year, all that stuff has to get cleared out. So NHL is running big discounts. I have not purchased any Leafs poop at least since the thing that happened in the place, but ShannaLouCock may have tricked me enough now that they'll pull me back in.

Besides, now we have players you can feel good about buying a jersey. Thinking Torres home, Stalock away.

And i guess your sister doesn't know the difference between "yeah, I'd love a blowie in the backseat of this cab" and "I think you are really special and I'm going to call you this weekend so I can take you to brunch."
