Can we please stop with this narrative that the reason he fell to #17 is because he had mono, and no other reason?

It's silly to suggest that 16 other teams didn't realize that his stats were affected by sickness.

C'mon, fellas.

- Atomic Wedgie


You're not wrong, however I think the reason he dropped was the "unknown" linked to the situation you described.

How much of his drop in level of play was the result of mono? How much of it was simply him regressing and / or not developping as planned.

Fact is, I think Lucas has every right to be excited because he's a talented player and was worth picking at that point.

I think most would agree that the '?' has more value than Plekanec does right now
- PatC80


Call me crazy, but I just can't imagine Plekanec having another season as bad as last year.

Not sure which mocks you were reading, but he'd fallen into the teens pretty consistently. There's a reason he fell to 17, I'd calm down a little bit. He doesn't have a clue defensively; he's a project who will be multiple years away, if he makes it at all.

Why do we get only 2 players?

And can Hodor play centre?

- Scabeh


I thought he was your center? Do you have any other centers.

I was going to list your NHL dmen but the list was shorter.

I think that is the key. If you want to take a home-run swing that was the guy at that draft position.

Glad they picked him.

This should still lead to some funny comments from other teams fans on here.

Lots of work to be done by Bergefail!

I've read an article today about how Alzner was in town to talk with the Habs / visit the city.

Good player but will be too overpaid.

Isn't he a Habs homer? The dude thinks Montreal won the draft because they took Joni Ikonen

Everyone's favourite hockey player in here, Josh Manson, was passed over by every team on multiple occasions. GM's and scouts have no idea what they're doing

My biggest question is why is Makar so great because of "offense, offense, offense" but Liljigren suddenly has "hockey sense" questions and he needs to learn to pick his spots?

He'll fit in with Buston Matthews, Bustitch Marner, Busteem Kadri and Bustiliam Nylander

People would say the exact same negative things about Makar, if he was drafted by the Leafs.. Every team, but the Leafs, had a great draft
