Is it midgets or does he like frail ones? We keep drafting 170lbers.

We drafted 2 big skilled players the last 2 years but okay

We can certainly spread the minutes out better. Dahl doesnt have to be playing 25+ every night. Not even most nights.
- DirtyDan



I feel like they took some of dahlin’s fanciness and tuch’s skill out of the game plan.

Sabres played a straight forward attack , get pucks to the net , less skilled game and it worked

That makes better sense, that he fell due to the year off and unknowns attached to his name. But don't get the top10 projection after a 30pt in 53g effort in 2019.
- QuinnFan


Was he not 17 that year?

Seems pretty reasonable.

Every draft projection was based off him not playing that whole year.

You having him at 14 is comical.Cause there was nothing to base it off compared to his peers.

- DirtyDan


You caught me….i had him at 13!!

He was certainly ranked higher than Rosen. Such a terrible pick. Found money in the Risto trade desperately needing bigger forwards and they blew it.
- Hatboro_Swords


lol “found money “

1st rounder > risto

I think it was a pretty weak draft compared to some drafts , maybe the 1st wasn’t worth as much that year?

Definitely a top5gm type trade

Can't seem to find a mock that has Johnston over Rosen tbh.

Wallstedt was definitely BPA at 14 in the 2020 draft.

Cornato going to Calgary the pick before pissed me off.

Johnston going at 23 was definitely the best of the bunch.

Aside from him though, nobody else has made an impact at the NHL level just yet that they could have picked.

Of all the years to have a mid-first 2020 wasn’t a great year to have one.

Meh, that's not something to write home about. Xavier Bourgault had 71 in 63 games that same year and he made it to pick 22. I'd have to look at other OHL guys tbh, I know Guenther was ppg though, he made it top10 obviously. It's respectable, but not some jaw dropping total either IMO.

Sorry about that. I thought I remember nobody on here knowing who he was when they picked him.

No worries, I wasn't sure myself so figured I'd look. I think Dirty is onto it, he took a year off when other guys didn't so teams were gun-shy to risk a higher 1st.

I had him ranked 14th and Wallstedt at 16.

Adams had Rosen and Ostlund, do you think he has a fetish for midgets?

Saw an interview not too long ago with Daryl and when the interviewer said something along the lines of "your songwriting partner" he was quick to correct them that it's mostly a business relationship and that he (Daryl) was responsible for their hits ("all that 80's stuff was me").
Having said that, I never got laid to a H&O song.

Yeah I agree

I had to make a goalie waiver in fantasy and choose between

Thompson Vegas at Dallas
Levi home (if starting) vs Montreal

Picked up Levi hoping for the win/shutout those are the only categories that matter
