Didn’t he overrule his scouts to pick Hodgson over Kyle Beach? I can live with that


And that Gaunce draft was weak, but Skjei and Pearson were selected shortly after Gaunce + they passed on Severson in round 2

Drafting is so different now . Every year better and better

It wasn't a very good draft year. Brady Skein Tanner Pearson and Jake McCabe were about the only players in that range worth anything.

I just looked at it, man what a terrible draft year. But Skjei and Pearson going shortly after is annoying.

Plus I remember a few Canuck fans wanting Severson in the 2nd round

I was hoping for Severson as well.
I was fine at the time with Gaunce, as he appeared to be a 2 way useful player, I was hoping to get Matheson though, no such luck.

I think everyone was happy when MG took Cody. Who knew he would fall so bad

I was in the same boat. Okay with Gaunce but wanted Severson in round 2. I was a Bob Mckenzie sheep back then though

Matheson would’ve been nice in that draft

Too bad the Caps turned down Carlson for Hodgson offer before the Kassian deal

I am sure that at 1 time or another, for those of us that follow the draft prospects, we all have had our time being a MacKenzie sheep.
When I started following about 35+ years ago Bob was pretty much the only 1 worth paying attention to. I still follow him and respect his work, although I form my own opinion and prefer Defensemen and centres, unless it is an extremely good winger or goalie.

If you’re gonna judge every player on this roster by this standard, then the trade list is pretty damn long

I wanted Sissons, I still do, BTW Carol, I'm in Kelowna now near Prospera. If you want to go to a great restaurant and have some really good food, head to Kelly O'Brian's downtown off of Water St. I always go there for panchos and probably will be there for the game and after.

That’s my choices as well. Takes a sure bet for a D though.

very very few 17-18 year old drafted kids are sure things though.
