I explicitly mentioned I went back as far as 2003 which was when Timmins was first hired. Going back only 10 years limits the sample size significantly, especially since the jury is still out on some recent picks like Juulsen and Poehling. It's not unreasonable to assume there is substantial variance in drafting. Anyway, if you prefer quanity over quality as a measure, than that's fine, but the way I see it drafting 3rd or 4th liners or bottom pairing dmen has little to no value because they 're so easy to sign/trade for.

There’s no clear winner here.

Unless you go to the first round..

15 nhl players in the past 10 years for TB. 7 for mtl.
if you take out top10 picks, I think it's 10-5.
so yeah, TB did draft a lot better. not even close. that's one reason they're #1 and Habs are playing for a lotery pick.

I really don't give a (frank) about Timmins, but I wonder how much of that is on the GM selection vs scouting recommendation.

Shoulda taken Kopitar over Price in the first round and then grabbed Quick in the third round.

See how this hind sight stuff works?

Price was Gainey's pick all the way.

It’s all on the GM and his cronies.

Come on.
