I'm just now starting to feel like I'm reestablishing a semi-viable interface with reality after last night. I got messed up. Need some hair of the dog though. I might have to get into the leftover beers, and having run analytics on the situation, I may have to roll up a Kyle Dubas.

Right on, getting solo destroyed in crappy hotel rooms is great. Like Martin Sheen at the beginning of Apocalypse Now. It's always been good.

Both drafts involve drafting players that are totally unproven to play/perform at the next level. The ability to see something that makes one think the next step will be successful.Hunter has proven that at the first level(OHL) no reason to think he couldn't do the same at NHL draft level..


Time will tell..He certainly seems to have been successful in last summer draft..

and lets not forget the Luck thing...

How has he been successful in last summer's draft?

No one has played a single game in the NHL.

I'm not saying Hunter is bad.

I'm just saying we can't grade him yet, and I find the blind worship of him by some here in Leafs Nation to be troubling.

Remember when Burkie was all that and a Burkie dog?

Agreed it's a little early to judge but whatever..Like what he has done so far..

Dont forget Burkie was right about Morgan Rielly..He was the best player in that draft...

They weren't supposed to play in the NHL last year. But they did quite well with their respective Junior clubs (Marner, Timoshov, Dermott, etc.), so for that, he has to get some kudos no?

So a guy that scouts for midget hockey could step in and be a good NHL scout? Where do we draw the line and why?

Anyway I'll leave this alone now lol

- daeth



Move up the line. He proved he could do it at the ohl no? So he's ready to move up and do it at the next level (same thing, no different just a grander scale)

Even the starred toppings count towards that. Might want to include 1 token vegetable just so there's a chance you might be able to poop within a week of eating it.

Pizza Pizza is the driest pizza ever created. It's the worst chain pizza you can buy, at least in Toronto.

Problem here is that there's not one place that knocks it out of the park. Take bbq for instance, there's this place that I can't understand a (frank)ing word when I go in. But that bbq is on point! Sticky and crispy...(frank). Duck too. But one joint has legit dumplings.

Yep..He's still faced with drafting unproven talent no matter what level..
