Day, hopefully.

Really Really wish Van had a second round pick this year and who the hell is that kid? final ranking was 108. I've lost faith in Benning.

Time to fire Benning before he (frank)s this up further. The guy has no clue what he's doing, in way over his head.

Edit Benning said yesterday he wish he had draft picks like some other teams. Well stop giving them away and you will have some. Stop making trades and you will have some draft picks.

I don't know. I am looking at who got drafted in the second round and I think meh.

When you say final ranking, there are so many rankings... I just turned on 1040 and mentioned the kid was 74 on someone's list...

Maybe you are right about JB should stop making trades, but it looks like the defense is much improved, still more work to do.

Morning. Sorry I'm late. Great sleep in. You gotta think some of these guys know more than Bob Mackenzie about drafting young kids.

time will tell, but I think they got the third best dman in the draft, at best.

Jot according to most of the scouting community. Awards at lower levels are simply that. How you're viewed playing against higher levels is what matters for the teams in the draft. Benning did just fine.

I normally just go by the central scouting rankings because it's done by 15 scouts or something. That's a good majority.

Benning has done pretty well drafting so far.... How about you wait a couple of years before you claim Benning is f'ing everytging up!! It's a 3rd round pick! It takes time!

Most of them do, but not Benning.

Any idea what the tampering penalty could be?

Don't know him, but looks like he plays the right way.

Bob's ranking is off how he feels who are the best players right now not what they could be like in the future.

Yeah. I'm starting to question Hunter.

Last year's draft looks great so just hoping and praying about this year's.
