I respect Button for watching hundreds of games and traveling to scout all of these players. Bob does nothing except pick up the phone. Sure, Bob's list is more accurate but I generally respect Button's lists....except for Tkachuk at 2

I went to school under my fathers last name even though my birth certificate had my mother's maiden name. Now if the police run my name, they accuse me of using an alias because of records from my youth that never had been updated. They have threatened to charge me for providing a false name regardless of my DL being under my proper birth name. It was an assumption the cops made in the 80's not me misleading them and 35 years later their mistake is still a pain in my ass.

Button said he probably watches 100 games all year. If he has seen Bouchard play 50 times. That's not good.

I like how he goes and see's games. In the end he probably saw the WJ games for the euros and that's about it. A few of the college games and such.

Probably why Bob's list is more accurate because everybody he talks to probably has seen many players 20 times not one player 50 times.

I had a first name that I didn't respond to, because no one called me that except for my Dad's uncle who I was named after and my teachers.

I'm on the side of 15.

I am sort of like Bob, I take the idea of many and put it into my own. Button and Pronman have a few outrageous picks but some of them will probably come true. Try to figure out which ones will be true is difficult.

I just like to figure out the "tiers" who's in the tiers and then pick the BPA available in that tier depending on a teams needs.
According to others.
Tier 1- Dahlin
Tier 2- Zadina, Svechnikov
Tier 3- Tkachuk, Boqvist, Walhstrom
Tier 4- Hughes, Bouchard, Dobson, Wilde
pick 10-20 is almost almost interchangeable in most drafts, Same with 20-30

- manvanfan


except for a couple sliding up and down one tier I'm in agreement with this..... if Svech is proven to be 27 then he'll drop out of the first round.

For sure. I didn't mention Broduer because I think he's 2 at best, debatable 3 depending how much you consider Hasek's ability and lesser team(for me it's Hasek, all things considered). For me, Roy did it with two totally different teams multiple times and reinvented the position. Broduer was so good, but played on the ultimate deadpuck team and ultimately just didn't win as much as Roy and had a way better supporting staff than Hasek until he played in Detroit.

Queue people saying old goalies are somehow better

Two time Stanley cup champion George Hainsworth is the greatest goalie of all time.
Check these stats out.

1.93GAA
94 career shutouts he had a monster year with 22 shutouts once.
246 wins, 144 losses.
Rocked a 0.95 goals against for one season.

He was a sub human 5 for 6 and 150 pounds, a real Ryan Millar for his time.

He was my hockey hero growing up, would have destroyed Roy or hasek if he'd played in the same era.

I’d move him to #1 up if he’s 27

This isn't my tier. They are the consolidated tiers of others.

Svech gets a year or two older every time you mention his name.

- VANTEL

I didn't say last week either. Button said he watches about 100 junior games a year from all the leagues including world juniors and ivan hlinka. If he has seen Bouchard play 50 times over the years. I'm guessing he probably see's a lot of Knights games.

Damnit it pains me to admit they are a damn good hockey team.

I don't know if they have the depth to win it all though.

They are outplaying CBJ, without Chara McAvoy Bergeron Nash Debrusk and Bjork(sp).
Depth shouldnt be an issue.

It will be fun to see the Sedins battling against them in the SCF next season.
A healthy line up and a few fresh faces.

I see what you are saying. Columbus isn't a very good team. I said Boston was a damn good team. I just don't think they have the right parts to win it all. They may even lose in the finals. I just don't see them winning it.

- VANTEL


I had a cop pull me over for speeding about 4 years ago. They run names. It's all it takes for 10 min worth of more bullpoop.

Quesnel cops do not have their eye on me for any reason but when I moved to the south Cariboo in 2001, the Clinton cops we all over me inside of 6 months. I guess out of curiosity they ran names of vehicle parked in my driveway and went into a panic immediately imagining all kinds of crazy poop. After 2 years they forgot all about me because all I wanted to do was get away from those kinds of people and fish and hunt and that became apparent when I was in the fly fishing club with a couple cops and they also were always trying to coax good hunting info out of me at the Rod and Gun club. Ffs...
