we're like 4 months into the season after the last draft so the only guys up here from 2017 are your high end picks and emergency call ups

The 2nd-7th rounders who will become NHLers wont really hit that level until 3 or 4 years removed from the draft.

A lot of those guys consist of european picks who are still overseas or college guys as well.

The fact that roughly 5% of the draft class is in the nhl right now after a year and a half sounds about average.

Edit: it's also not "close to 500" its 417 so you're looking at roughly 6.5%

The Calder has been a harbinger of the outstanding NHL Careers of such first round HOFers like Tyler Armia. (™).

Generally after the 1st round you are not considered a bust.

sam reinhart

it's not your fault you were picked second overall

it's not your fault draisaitl SHOULD have been our pick

but damn you stink

I am not talking stank seafood burp stink, you really stink

you're a f@cking skunk

you have been fortunate to be up a line and play the wing with eichel or ror, and you stink.

you have been blessed with nice passes and a wide open net, and you f@cking stink.

I am not upset that larkin and pastrnak are better than you.
I am not upset that ehlers is better than you

I am upset that you f@cking stink

you have spent a game on the bench with no ice time, not phased
you have been dropped to the 4th line, not phased


you have no f@cking excuses.
this is the NHL
work hard, skate hard and play out every shift.

just because your older brother sucks, doesn't give you the right to half a$$ your entry level contract.

if it's too hard to give effort, and justify us tanking for a year, TO GET YOU, then just retire, or ask for a trade

you have been given every opportunity to put up 50 points a season, and you fail

why, because your a f@cking skunk and you stink


time to put the big boy pants and act like an NHL player instead of a drunken teenager


get your head out of your a$$ or move on and we can have matt ellis come out of retirement and take your shift


you stinky, smelly, nasty a$$ skunk
